Onward, in a fo'warder direction

[rolanni]

Business First:  In re The Fey Duology, all of the ebook suppliers to libraries, and most of the online bookstores have refused to carry the ebook edition.  If you pre-ordered from BN, please check that.  As of this morning, the vendors who will be carrying the ebook edition are:  Amazon, Apple, Kobo, Thalia, Smashwords, and Baen on the day of publication.

As of this morning, Amazon still lists the paper edition of The Fey Duology as ready to go on sale June 1.

Regarding my upcoming teaching event -- no, it will not be available on-line, only locally, and on then if enough people sign on to make it worth Adult Ed's time and space.

First thing this morning, Firefly demanded a selfie.

I, of course, life to serve.

Saturday, sunny and warm.

Breakfast was a blueberry muffin and what was left of the cottage cheese. I'm getting into that Interesting Time when I probably shouldn't do a Full Shop, but I'm running out of things.

On the stove for lunch is so-called sweet potato and lentil skillet, which is very tasty and produces lots of leftovers. I had on hand and therefore used a Japanese Garnet Yam, which is taking a little longer to become fork-tender than would your plain vanilla sweet potato.

Did a little work this morning on "When the Delm's Away." I have A Decision to make, so, letting that rest while I Don't Think About It.

This afternoon, I've got some Real Life to take care of, here and there, but, yanno? I may knock off early.

How's everybody doing today?

Oh, here, have a snippet:
There was a time when Kareen yos'Phelium had wanted, beyond any other thing in this life or the next, to stand as Delm Korval.

She had made an enemy of her brother, for he, though he had not wished for it, and had been properly aware of his own inadequacies, held what was her heart's desire.

She had very nearly made a stranger of her heir, seeing him as the personification of her failures.

After lunch, and not to be outdone by her elder sister, Tali demanded her own selfie and a chin-rub.  

Again, I live to serve.

So far, Rook has withheld any demands for a selfie.  Should that change, I will of course Inform His Fandom.

I sat out on the deck in my hooded chair for a little while, then I went out front and did some modest weeding.  It's quite warm, and sunny, of course, and I forgot my hat.  Have to get back into sunny-day habits.

Now that I'm back in and my duty the cats dispatched, the pots 'n pans washed, and the dishwasher doing its thing -- I will be knocking off for the rest of the day.

Everybody have a good evening.  I'll check in tomorrow.
