Well, we're big rock singers; we got golden fingers

The revisions came back on the essay; happily, nothing drastic.  I'll deal with them...tomorrow.  Or Saturday.

This morning, FedEx brought another 600-ish tip-in pages for Necessity's Child for Steve and me to sign, so -- good on y'all who pre-ordered signed copies!

Also! Did you know that February 2013 is the Silver Anniversary of the Liaden Universe®? That's right, in February 1988, the paperback original of a quirky little space opera titled Agent of Change, by Steve Miller and Sharon Lee, appeared in bookstores everywhere! And the rest?  Is history!

In celebration of the persistence of history, we'll be hosting a combined book release party/silver anniversary at Boskone -- more details as they're nailed down.

We ought to plan a web celebration, too, for the folks who can't make Boskone.  What do you think we should do?

Twenty-five years, and all of the Liaden books are in print.  That's really kind of awesome, actually.

And in other news, I cleaned the bathroom.

I thought that was: "We got toes and fingers."

Going down to the car yesterday, the young man who lives next door noticed my Tree and Dragon shirt. Conversation ensued. He and his S.O. now have temporary possession of two of my more precious books. One of these days I might even greet a fellow traveler with a bow and not be summarily relegated to the "strange and possibly dangerous" file.
I am very glad that you have brought such a rich universe to environs of this third rock. I am made more glad by the knowledge you are still writing.
Please accept my heartfelt congratulations!
