Five things make a post, the discount edition
Monday, February 27th, 2012 10:20 am1. Mr. Blyly at Uncle Hugo’s reports that, of the 400 signed editions of Dragon Ship assigned to his care, 225 were placed in the first 48 hours of the pre-order period. This leaves only ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE (175) books left for adoption. If you were planning on pre-ordering a signed edition of Lee-and-Miller’s Dragon Ship, the exciting! follow-on to Ghost Ship — you really do need to act with alacrity.
Here’s the link to the Rules of Pre-ordering

2. We have thus far collected, through February sales of The Cat’s Job, $135.93 in donations to Planned Parenthood for their breast cancer screening program. Thank you all for your generosity. For those coming in late, here’s the original post for this fund-raiser, which runs through Leap Day, Wednesday, February 29
3. Judy Tarr, writing as Judith Tarr, author of manymany fine books, as you don’t need me to tell you, has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the second draft and the artwork for her novel Living in Threes. For a five-buck buy-in supporters will receive an ebook edition of the completed work. Judy was asking for a paltry $3,500 to fund this project, and she only lacks $1,290 to hit her goal, three days into the campaign. This? Is where the fun starts. I wonder how high over the goal this project will leap. Go on over and give Judy a boost, why not? Here’s the link.
4. I? Scrod the ankle yesterday and so today I’ll be writing from the couch, on The Leewit. I’ll be checking in from time to time, so tell me something cool in comments, to help take my mind off my troubles. In the meantime — fascinating stuff in the reading thread!
5. What? It’s the discount edition.

Date: 2012-02-28 04:28 am (UTC)I've got the sprained knee wrapped up in an Ace bandage which serves as a brace. Against my skin on the bad part of the knee is a big ass magnet from Nikken. I go to physical therapy twice a week and am advised I'll have to do that for another six weeks. I get two other more estoteric treatments twice a week for the knee. And I'm rolling around my house on my computer chair instead of walking. If I have to go into town I go only to where I can walk an extremely short walk with my one crutch...using the free arm to carry stuff if necessary. Crossing fingers all of this works.
