I was immensely delighted to be a Guest of Honor at the World Fantasy Convention in San Jose, California, October 29 – November 1, 2009. Since images are far more eloquent than words, here is a selection of them. I hope they vividly show how much Mia, my wife, and my humble self enjoyed the perfectly organized gathering.

The first volume of Zoran Zivkovic’s collected prose works in Serbian and English is just out. The volume contains seven Zivkovic’s novels: The Fourth Circle, The Writer, The Book, Hidden Camera, The Last Book, Escher’s Loops and The Ghostwriter. The second volume, Impossible Stories, is scheduled for early 2010.
