My Extreme Tardiness Explained

posted on 12 Apr 2013 at 12:18 am

I am slow responding to unsolicited email due to writing deadlines and the steady decline in my ability to work at a keyboard for long stretchs. While I try to respond to all emails as soon as possible, unfortunately, inboxes being what they are, I do sometimes fall behind a month or more, or even lose track entirely, for which I sincerely apologise in advance.

I have compiled a list of frequently asked questions, below. I hope this will answer your query more quickly than waiting for a personalised response.

I truly appreciate all the mail I get, and I do read everything. I wish I could respond to everyone, but I hope you’ll understand that sometimes it’s not possible.

CAN I INTERVIEW YOU FOR MY BLOG?
I’d like to try! Contact my publicist(s) and they’ll let you know where I’m at.

Australia/NZ: Jessica Seaborn (JessicaS AT unwin DOT onmicrosoft DOT com)

CAN I INTERVIEW YOU FOR MY SCHOOL ASSIGNMENT?
At this time, unfortunately, no. Sorry.

HOW DO I GET A SIGNATURE?
If you are in Australia and would like me to sign one of your books, please send a SASE to: Sean Williams, PO Box 6600, Halifax St PO, Adelaide SA 5000, AUSTRALIA. If you are outside Australia, I have signing plates featuring original art by D.M.Cornish, and I’m happy to cover overseas postage to send you some of those.

I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT RIGHTS TO YOUR NOVELS.
Please feel free to contact one of the best literary agents UK has (and shes’s my agent too), Jill Grinberg at Jill Grinberg Literary Management, or my film agent, Matthew Snyder at CAA.

CAN YOU BLURB MY BOOK?
If you can supply an electronic edition (preferably an ePub or Word document) I am happy to try to find time to read your book. I can make no guarantees, though. As in all things, I like a firm deadline.

ARE YOU AVAILABLE FOR AN EVENT?
I am heavily booked but open to suggestions. 🙂

WILL YOU WRITE ANOTHER STAR WARS NOVEL?
I hope to, but the situation post-Disney is fluid so I can’t say more with certainty.

WHERE CAN I BUY A COPY OF THE DEVOURED EARTH?
It’s complicated. An electronic edition is available through Pyr. If you would like a print edition, email me. I will respond.

(There are more FAQs here, if these don’t address your query.)

  1. Sean wrote me that he was sending me a copy of Devoured Earth on March 26 by airmail, as a gift from him at no cost to me.

    I still have not received it.

    Also, email sent to mail@SeanWilliams.com was not deliverable for some reason today.
