Good morning, Tuesday! Some news: A Girl’s Guide To Guns & Monsters is out! I loved the idea of this anthology. My story, Best Friends, is…well, there are teenage lesbian vampire killers. I enjoyed myself to the hilt, writing it. You can probably imagine. Anyway, there’s a ton of great authors and great stories in it, so if anthologies are your speed, check it out!
Let’s see…there’s John Scalzi with a call for author support, and Jay Lake with an open letter to Kindle enthusiasts and ebook activists. What I like about the Lake piece is that he explains why ebooks are NOT free, why it costs money to make them.
I’m celebrating Imbolc today, mostly because I was too sick to be enthusiastic about anything yesterday. But the wonder that is the immune system has kicked the cold’s ass, and I’m on the mend, helped along by a gigantic portion of tea and other fluids. (When all else fails, drown a cold.) The Princess has recently read War of the Worlds and listened to the Orson Welles broadcast (we have it on CD) and there were many jokes this past weekend about how we would survive the common cold and the Martians wouldn’t.
So, happy Imbolc. And happy Groundhog Day. I can already sense spring in the rising sap; some of the trees are budded out and crocuses and tulips are beginning to show.
It’s about damn time.
