There’s been a recent thread on what summer movies to look forward to.

What other creative stuff are you looking forward to?

Me:

Books
-- Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book (September? October?) – child raised in a graveyard.
-- OSC’s Master Alvin. (Yes, I know he hasn’t written it yet, and that he’ll probably write a bunch of Ender books first…)
-- GRRM’s A Dance With Dragons. (Actually looking forward more to the NEXT book after Dance, since it sounds like Dance will be more plot set-up/backstory for the last books. But I’ll happily settle for it, and especially for getting to see Jon, Tyrion, Bran, Dany, etc.)
-- Diana Gabaldon’s next Outlander book (An Echo in the Bone)
-- Molly Ringle/Lemonlye/Molly Ringwraith (who’s written a bunch of great LotR and Harry Potter parodies) has a novel, The Ghost Downstairs, coming out sometime.

Comics
Scott Pilgrim vol. 5 Dec?
Craig Thompson’s Habibi (years yet…) ( sample page)

Music
I don’t keep up with new music at all (I wait to hear someone else play it and give it to me, and meanwhile I’m tracking down older stuff that’s already out.) But at some point local group Morwenna Lasko and Jay Pun will be having a new album.

[edit: added some links]

Another book = Patrick Rothfuss's next one. I just started The Name of the Wind, and am liking it after just a few chapters...
