Peter has been interviewed in two recent fantasy publications, available now:

"Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show", a new online-only fantasy & sci-fi magazine, is featuring two Peter S. Beagle items this month: a new short story (see earlier post) and an interview by IMGS editor Edmund R. Schubert. Read the entire interview online, for free

(Peter also has a new short story available in this issue, called "We Never Talk About My Brother". Read the preview here )

Next, the July 2007 issue of "Locus Magazine" features a conversation with Peter (and a very handsom picture of him on the cover!) You can find the issue on the stands now, or order it by mail from Locus directly. More information: http://locusmag.com/2007/Issue07_Profile.html. Read excerpts from the interview here.

"Two Hearts", the Hugo-award-winning sequel to "The Last Unicorn", was awarded the Nebula award for Best Novelette last night!

According to Peter's business manager: "He is absolutely ecstatic. He has never even been nominated before, and even as his name was read out as the winner he couldn't quite believe this was happening."

More info: http://sfwa.org/awards/2007/

You can read "Two Hearts" in the short story collection "The Line Between" (available autographed from Conlan Press) or online at PeterBeagle.com.

(Note: if you were one of the people who preordered the "Two Hearts" Collector's Edition, we have heard from Conlan Press that the manufacturing process is finally moving forward and there should be some good news soon...)

If you'll be in the New York City area the weekend of May 11-13, 2007, Peter will be in town for the 2007 Nebula Awards (his story "Two Hearts" is on the final ballot - keep your fingers crossed!)

Peter will be participating in a multi-author book signing on Friday May 11th. On Saturday May 12th, the Nebula Awards banquet will be held (open to anyone with a weekend membership to the weekend's activities).

Then on Sunday, win or lose, Peter will be hosting a potluck picnic in Central Park for whomever wishes to join him. Come celebrate with him (or help cheer him up), make some new friends, and enjoy the scenery.

As always, details and directions are available at: http://www.peterbeagle.com

Hope to see you in New York!
