It has been a crazy great week since the book launched on the 30th. I want to thank you for tuning in to the launch, for buying a book and/or for reading or viewing some of the other online attention the book has been getting. I’ve been sharing links to all this awesomeness on my social media channels. For those of you not on social media, and for those who may have missed a post, here is a roundup of links to the blogs and websites which have given Lunatic Engine so much love over the past week:
Turnstone Press has posted the full video of my conversation with Dava Sobel, moderated by Alice Major. Part of this conversation we included in the book launch, the full video of which will be posted soon.

If you haven’t had a chance to pick up a copy of the book yet, what are you waiting for? For those of you in Edmonton, I encourage you to buy the book from Audrey’s. They offer both curbside pickup and delivery and may even have one or two signed copies kicking around. Order now at https://audreys.ca/
Then drop me a DM or an email (my email address is in the book if you don’t already have it) and we can arrange to meet somewhere in town, with masks, and I can sign your book and we can say hi in person. I am dying to see you!
For those of you who don’t live in Edmonton, I encourage you to buy the book at your local independent book store. Barring that, it is available at all major online retailers. I also have a limited number of copies available that I can personalize and mail to you for the low, low price of $20. Again send me a DM or an email.
