Jamie Ford’s debut novel, <i>Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet</i>, spent two years on the New York Times bestseller list and went on to win the 2010 Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature. Jamie’s work has been published in 34 languages. Also, because Jamie feels weird writing about himself in the 3rd person, he’s going to say…<br /><br /><b>Hi, this is me.</b> <br /><br />Not a publicist. Not some weird aggregated bit of web-content, just little ol’ me, the author, sitting here in my favorite Batman pajamas (yes, I have several pairs) writing this note in my cozy home office, dog at my feet. Her name is Lucy and she’s twitching right now, obviously chasing squirrels in her dreams.<br /><br />While we’re chatting, I should mention that my latest novel novel, <i>The Many Daughters of Afong Moy</i>, is now available for pre-order :)<br /><br />If you’re looking for more things that have spilled out of my brain, I have steampunk storiess in <i>The End is Nigh</i>, <i>The End is Now</i>, and <i>The End Has Come (The Apocalypse Triptych)</i>. Also a tale in <i>Stories from Suffragette City</i>. <br /><br />Lest I forget, I have a story in <i>Anonymous Sex</i>, but I'm not allowed to say which story is mine.<br /><br />
