At the DreamHaven mass-signing last night I saw (and signed) my first copy of the new CONJUNCTIONS. Gahan Wilson cover and illustrations and a stunning line-up of writers. There's an article about it here at USATODAY.com - Straub finds 'Fabulists' group of ghost writers. (My story is "October in the Chair", which was a sort of a test run for some of the themes in The Graveyard Book, the next childrens' novel.)

In the same edition of USA Today is an article on Tori Amos, and her new CD "Scarlet's Walk", which is just out and is very wonderful.
