[rolanni]

Things have been happening here at the Confusion Factory.  Also, things are about to happen.  Here's your handy guide to our Official Goin's-ons.

1.  "Cutting Corners," a Liaden Universe® short story including but not limited to: norbears, pirates, and piloting re-certs is now live and ready for you -- yes, you! -- to read it.  Here's the link.
2. The first Patreon goody has been posted -- Steve reading "A Night at the Opera," by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller.  This may be accessed by Patreon folks only.  After May 15, it will migrate to Splinter Universe for everyone's listening pleasure.  Here's your link.
3. The second Patreon goody will be posted on or about Saturday April 29, and it will be my turn.  There's a poll open right now, to help me figure out which story I ought to read.  Here's a link to the poll.
4. On May 1 at 12 noon Eastern Daylight Time, Steve and I will be hosting a pre-release A(sk) M(e) A(nything) at Reddit.  We hope you'll be able to join us.  You do need to register with Reddit in order to take part in the AMA.  You can register here.
5. On Tuesday, May 2, The Gathering Edge, by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, the twentieth novel-length adventure in the Liaden Universe®, will be published, in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook.
6. On Saturday, May 13, from 1-3, Steve and I will be at the Barnes and Noble in the Augusta Marketplace in Augusta, Maine, hosting a meet and greet and a book signing, and we hope to see you there!

And now? You're all caught up.

Warm Sheets

[ireneha]

I expect those were warm sheets before they became Cat covered.
I hope that the dryer didn't add to much static [that looks like flannel], else the sheets became fur rugs.

[I stayed the night once with Andre Norton. When Rose Wolf took the sheets out of the dryer, I could watch the cat fur leap onto them. The fresh sheets were intended to give my allergies a cat free bed. Riiiggghhht!]

Not overly warm; they'd all been wanting to help me make the bed that day. Sprite had apparently found Uncle Max!!'s book and had read the section about getting made into the bed, and wanted to try it for herself. Nobody was in the room when the blanket went on, but a joint decision was obviously taken, not to let it get away. The blanket itself is a wool-and-fleece blend. Very toasty.
