    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Quick reminder of a few events:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I&amp;#8217;ll be at Waterstones Piccadily in London on &lt;strong&gt;Wednesday 12th April 19:30&lt;/strong&gt; (so tomorrow!), in conversation with Zen Cho and Vic James. You can get tickets &lt;a href="http://aliettedebodard.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=577d3a7dc11713758dd25d02d&amp;amp;id=3e58ba4db2&amp;amp;e=6d69dc8148" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; (or just show up at the event and get them).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;And I&amp;#8217;ll be attending Eastercon in Birmingham: my schedule is &lt;a href="http://aliettedebodard.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=577d3a7dc11713758dd25d02d&amp;amp;id=812857fae1&amp;amp;e=6d69dc8148"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve also been around the blogosphere:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://aliettedebodard.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=577d3a7dc11713758dd25d02d&amp;amp;id=0759877db1&amp;amp;e=6d69dc8148" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;My Favorite Bit&lt;/a&gt; at Mary Robinette Kowal&amp;#8217;s Blog: destroying Paris and terrible bilingual puns&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://aliettedebodard.com/2017/04/10/likeable-characters-interesting-characters-frankly-terrible-ones/"&gt;At my blog: &lt;/a&gt; why likeable characters are overrated and how to design your very own character we love to hate,&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://uncannymagazine.com/fallacy-agency-power-community-erasure/"&gt;The Fallacy of Agency &lt;/a&gt;at &lt;em&gt;Uncanny Magazine&lt;/em&gt;, with awesome Likhain art (aka Madeleine from &lt;em&gt;The House of Binding Thorns&lt;/em&gt;, with silver and gold foil and all the usual Likhain prettiness, which you can see a snippet of above. Seriously. Go check the post out just for the art because it&amp;#8217;s stunning. Likhain is a current Hugo finalist for Best Artist and deservedly so!)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Author takeover: &lt;a href="http://blog.mugglenet.com/2017/04/author-takeover-war-of-the-houses-by-aliette-de-bodard/"&gt;War of the Houses&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;em&gt;Mugglenet&lt;/em&gt; (which makes me absurdly happy because Harry Potter was such a big part of my London years)&lt;/li&gt;
