Yes, it’s true!  The laundry is done.  Onward, to the dishes!

Today was mostly about the continuing campaign to catch up email (if you haven’t heard from me, I’m not ignoring you; I just haven’t gotten to your letter yet), and writing.  The first section of “Guaranteed Delivery” is done; now we switch viewpoints.

I realize that I am remiss in several announcements of possible interest.

First, The Crystal Variation, including Crystal Soldier, Crystal Dragon, and Balance of Trade is now shipping from Amazon.

Second, we have at least one report of a Ghost Ship that we personalized during our stop-over at Uncle Hugo’s reaching its final destination.  If you haven’t received yours yet, it’s on the way!

Thirdly, Rachel Hyland (also known for her editorial role at Geek Speak Magazine) did a lovely article about the Romance of the Liaden Universe® here  Feel free to read and comment.

Fourthly, I need to do the dishes.  Oh, wait…

Progress on “Guaranteed Delivery”

1,595/10,000  OR 15.95% completed

Good article. If one's preference is romance, your stories are likely read from that POV and there is romance to be enjoyed. But you two serve up so much more than romance.

Patricia Bray said it so well: “These stories have it all. Adventure, intrigue, romance. Loyal friendships and hidden treachery… Ultimately, this is a story about extraordinary people (both human and alien) who find in friendship, loyalty and love the strength to face overwhelming challenges."

In a earlier post, you commented on no chapbooks in the schedule. Honestly, it feels like there will be *bonus* chapbook stories available to through Splinter Universe. I'm delighted to support more stories as opposed to once a year. And love it that there's no waiting ... instant gratification is way ok.

Best regards. And skritches to Mozart and Scrabble, who bided so patiently.

I'm going to vote for the category "anthropological science fiction/romance."

The article was beautifully written. Very excellent.

Again asking will Intelligent Design and Kin Ties be available in an e-format of some kind so I can plonk it into my new Kindle when I buy it? The Kindle: because your stories I'm guessing will be only on an e basis. Did Steve get tired of sending chapbooks one at a time from the post office?

Thought I'd answered this a couple times.

Then plan is to put the stories up as echapbooks on Amazon, BN and Smashwords as they age off the page. Right now, I don't know how long "age off the page" will be, because we're learning by doing.

Just finished Kin Ties. Yum! I have wanted to see that part of Ren Zel's story resolved.
