A mock-up of the UK cover for An American Spy, due out early next year. It’s a new look for that market, and pretty cool.


Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - Official Trailer *NEW (by OptimumReleasing)

New trailer for Tinker Tailor. Call me a giddy fan, because that’s what I am. This is the first movie in a long time that I’m really waiting for, even though I know the story like the back of my hand, having read the book yearly for the past half decade.

Apologies, Twitterers

To anyone who follows me on Twitter, my apologies.


I just transferred a few hundred of my posts from the Contemporary Nomad to live here at Tumblr using an automated script…but forgot to turn off the “post to Twitter” selection in Tumblr. Thus, anyone who follows me just got a load of ancient garbage.


It won’t happen again.

Fresh off Minotaur’s Photoshop, the US cover for An American Spy, due out March 2012. I think it’s totally terrific.

"You Know..." on the NOOK


At the suggestion of a Twitter connection, I finally did the obvious and reformatted “You Know What’s Going On” for the Barnes and Noble NOOK, or any device that uses the B&N reader software. No longer is the story tied solely to the Kindle, and with that little taste of freedom comes the desire for more—I’m going to start looking for other digital avenues for the novella.
