Commented on Lighting up again
That 17 year gap between the books - must be interesting (challenging?) for you writing Miriam again: in the first books she was a young, ambitious journalist - presumably in the new trilogy she... won't be....

Commented on Lighting up again
'a cave or D&D style "dungeon"...' You open the door. Immediately, you are attacked by a pack (1d6 + 1) of story synopses. Make a saving throw vs bite or be infected......

Commented on Lighting up again
Imagining you moving across a misty landscape of words, being stalked, mugged and attacked by half-formed, feral novels. Or are you really doing the stalking? Either way, thanks for heading out there to catch these specimens and bring them back...

Commented on New Guest Blogger: Ian Tregillis
Hello Ian I know it's bad manners to disagree with Charlie, but... while I loved both Bitter Seeds and Coldest War (what you did with the plot in the latter was especially breathtaking) and I am really looking forward to...
