I'll give copies of INFERNO to the first five who promise to blog about it before the end of the year--no overseas folk this time--it's just gotten too expensive for me to mail copies outside the USA.
I'm pleased! ;) Yeah, it was on someone else's journal -- Lucius Shepard's, I think? -- talking about short stories and political fiction, and then via email about anthology projects.
And that's it everyone (boy, that was quick). Maybe I'll do it again with a few different books in the next few weeks. Or more Infernos...you never know!
I was actually planning to hit B&N tomorrow for another Temeraire fix, so I'll have to have a look for it. :) I can never focus on novels on a plane, anyway, so some good shorts will probably be just the thing.
Is the board still around? Seemed like most everyone wandered off after the Big Announcement. I still miss the stories.
So where are you going? The problem is when I'm traveling long distances, I take disposable books/mags so I don't have to carry them home.
I think it's probably still up but I stopped going over after it was all over. I miss the regular income and the health benefits but am glad to not have to publish a story a week--it's a lot of work. As long as I can continue to edit short stories, I'm happy.
My hubby and I are going to England to see his family over Christmas. He hasn't been home for Christmas since 1999, and I figure it's about time to go back. Heh, I don't think I could dispose of a book or a magazine (or a piece of yarn) if my life depended on it. Then, I'm the worst packrat I know.
I feel your pain on the health benefits. They're one reason I haven't tried to go to part-time at my day job. I'm glad you're doing well, though. :) I'm that way about novels. As long as I can keep writing them, I'm set for life.
That said, it might be nice to sell one once in a while. ;)
I'll do my best. :) And if you read any news articles about a crazy American who decided to go swimming in the North Sea on Boxing Day, well, now you know who it is. ;)

Oh, I don't know if you remember me, but this is Seward from the SciFiction boards. I'm in my fannish guise, so ignore the occasional weirdness. ;)

Re: Review Copy
I heard from Leslie Ann Henkel at Tor yesterday...she's overnighting me a copy of INFERNO, which I should receive today.
Can't wait to review it -- thanks!
