All-New
Justine Larbalestier Website
Welcome to the all-new Justine Larbalestier website. Deb
Biancotti, goddess that she is, has designed two new sections,
one for my first novel, Magic
or Madness, (coming out in March in the USA; September
in Australia & New Zealand), and one for The
Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction. She's also put
together a new books page, completely
reorganised my musings, and added a handy little subject
index, so if you really want to read everything I have to say
about, say, sport all at once, you can
(so far only cricket, basketball,
and a tiny touch of the Tour
de France—my disquisitions on lawn bowls, darts and ballroom
dancing will be up soon, I promise. But there'll be no post on hurling.
Cause, you know, what the hell?!).
I'm particularly happy to make these
old letters to sf magazines available outside of my
book. Isaac Asimov debates the role of women in science fiction
in the pages of Astounding. It's wonderful stuff.
For those interested in the publishing
industry, this is an account
of the making of my soon-to-be-available YA novel, Magic or
Madness, from sale to writing through production. The Magic
or Madness section also includes a glossary
of the Australian English that appears in the book, as well as the
first two chapters, and some
answers to cool questions
I've been asked about the book and about writing generally. If you
have any questions or comments feel free to send
them my way.
Enjoy!
Deb has been very
very busy on my behalf. Thank you, Deb.
You should all check out her
new blog. Not only is she a fab
web designer, but she's witty, sharp and funny. Often all at
the same time!
Thanks also to all my regular readers for your support. I love that
there are people in Israel, Spain, the Netherlands, Iraq and Mexico
who read me regularly! Not to mention Australia, Canada, France,
New Zealand, United Kingdom and the USA. You're all goddesses.
