Thing One:
For those who read electrik books, classic Liaden Universe® chapbook Two Tales of Korval: Adventures in the Liaden Universe® Number One is now available in a Kindle edition, and! in a Nook edition*.

Plans are afoot to get Skyblaze uploaded and available before the end of the week. Watch this space for details.

Thing Two:
As advertised in all the best blogs and infodumps in cyberspace, if you want to get yourself a signed, first hardcover edition of Ghost Ship by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, you need to act and you need to act fast**!

Details here.

Thing Three:
There’s still time to vote for your favorite works of science fiction and fantasy of 2011, in the Locus Poll. The poll goes over on April 15 — that’s Friday! Locus helpfully provides titles in the drop-down lists — however! If your favorite work isn’t on the drop-down, there are *also* write-in spaces under each category. The Locus Poll is a reader poll — anyone may vote. Please only vote once, Mr. Kelly abhors ballot-box-stuffing, and please be truthful about your gender.

———
*Yes, I'm aware that the link to the Nook edition takes one not to the book page, but to the Nook front page.  No, I don't know why that's happening.  The URL is correct, and the link works from the original blog entry at sharonleewriter.com.  Stupid intertubes.

**Where fast = Before April 30, 2011.

is there a nice neat list of which chapbooks are available from webscriptions.net and which are forthcoming in kindle/nook varieties so I can make sure I get them all? =)

And the link went directly to the TTofK Nook page at B & N for me, so they must have fixed the problem.

You know, actually buying a Nook book for reading on a PC is probably the most enraging thing you can try to do. I end up calling for help every time.

I thoroughly enjoyed 'Skyblaze'.I like seeing societies from the bottom or close to.
The council of clans seems to see its melanti as not involving any but the powerful. I see major trouble ahead for them.
Have the Scouts relocated entirely to Surebleak?

Although there hasn't been much activity recently, you might want to take this discussion over here

Since some people may not have seen Skyblaze yet...

Excellent! Thank you for saying so.

The answer to that is actually a spoiler for Ghost Ship

Just spinning off the Korval relocation, I'd speculate that while the Scouts might relocate to Surebleak, they'd still have members on Liad to stay familiar with the culture and "natives." I'm betting that the pilot and passenger cultures are going to evolve in wildly different directions, now that they're not on the same planet.
