Welcome to Issue 7! We are covering the 13th of October, 2015 through today (and beyond). This recap is just in case you missed what we and others have previously covered on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram and elsewhere!
Wow! Time has really flown! It's been a while since our last one of these, and there is a lot to catch up on! It's good thing the scheduling of these recaps are intentionally random...it works out for times like this. Our crazy Daemon lives got a bit scattered this past month! So without further delay or apology, let's get into what's been going on:
1. Fandom News
• AllSoulsCon
As you may have heard, the first AllSoulsCon 2015 took place on September 12, in Los Angeles, California, and was live streamed to virtual attendees around the world. The recorded event is available on demand. It’s never too early to think about the next one! Subscribe to their newsletter to stay in the know. Receive ASC updates via email to always stay up to date! Here is sample AllSoulsCon newsletter (check it out! It has a lot of good information – including where you can contact ASC and where you see and add to the AllSoulsCon 2016 wishlist in The All Souls Gathering.)
• A Feast for All Souls
New recipes for All Souls Glazed Bundt Pound Cake, some Samhain Recipes, or enjoy Diana's Horehound Candies, and Gluten Free Scones.

Visit these places on Facebook: Trilogía Todas las almas de Deborah Harkness, and El descubrimiento de las brujas. The first is a Facebook group, the second is a fan page! Check them out!
Curious as to what else is out there in the fandom? Visit our links page. We consider this a living document. As we find out about different sites/social media venues, we update the page to reflect. If you know of a site/social media venue out there that covers the All Souls universe, contact us! We'll gladly add to the list!

2. Other Points of Interest Around the Web
• Matthew's Birthday!
From Deb's FB page |
Speaking of Matthew...
• NOLA: The Garden District! "Matthew was weary to the bone and ready to murder something when he returned to the Garden District. He’d walked there from the French Quarter, hoping to burn off some excess emotion. The endless list of names had stirred up too many memories, none of them pleasant." ~ The Book of Life. Take a walking tour with this video:
3. Author/Series News
• On October 2, writers share #WhyIWrite on Twitter for National Day on Writing. Our author tweeted this:
We are grateful, and not coincidentally, they are the same reasons why we read the All Souls Trilogy. You can see the full Entertainment Weekly feature that includes other writers here.
• On October 20, the Italian edition of The Book of Life, “Il bacio delle tenebre” was published by Edzione Piemme. Many an Italian reader in the Facebook group All Souls Trilogy Il Libro Della Vita E Della Morte showed their excitement over finally having the final volume in their hands!
• At the end of October, The Southern California Independent Booksellers Association (SCIBA) awarded The Book of Life with the Best Fiction award:
• Tour Stops – Deb and her penguin were off to see readers and talk about a variety of topics ranging from the All Souls Trilogy, witches, the dead in Early Modern England and more!
- A Gathering of Witches--a Conversation with Deborah Harkness, Katherine Howe and Brunonia Barry
