I don't want to jinx it since the contract is not yet in my sweaty little hands, but, knock on wood, over the next year I'll be working with First Second Books to create my own adaptation of the weird, hallucinogenic Nutcracker And The Mouse King, based on the original story by ETA Hoffman (a lot weirder than the ballet, if you can imagine). I like First Second a lot, and the editor I'm working with is great, so I'm really excited about this.

P.S. The fashion blog is going ahead full steam. I haven't forgotten about it, guys! I'm building up a buffer! I plan to launch it the first Sunday of January; I figure nobody's going to be excited about fashion during the holiday season. It'll be once a week, published on Sunday.
