'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.
Eeeeeeee!!! Vortex is the best Sekrit Santa ever, I don't care that she was late!
Back in December, I literally thought, "Damn, it would be really great if I got The Best American Science Writing 2004 for a Sekrit Santa gift."
AND I DID OMG YAY.
Plus a book of scary stories written by women! Margaret Atwood, Shirley Jackson, Joyce Carol Oates, Jamaica Kincaid, Flannery O'Connor...all in one book!!
And a pen!
totally has a cow
That was so worth waiting for. Thank you so much!
Ooh, what's the name of the book?
Mistresses of the Dark: 25 Macabre Tales by Master Storytellers.
Sounds like something that would provide great SS for classes. Out of curiousity, which Shirley Jackson story do they use?
"The Summer People."
Hey, that's not in my anthology! Another reason to get the book.
The Best American Science Writing 2004
Hey, I know that book! (J is off to three weeks in Japan for a couple of stories, and I'm jealous, P-C).
So, out of curiosity, do I get the award for Latest Seekrit Santa present?
ets: Which should be a calendar with the latest shipping date circled in red.
Though, to be fair, PC say that I shouldn't ship before Jan 9th.
Hey, I know that book!
Hee hee.
(J is off to three weeks in Japan for a couple of stories, and I'm jealous, P-C).
Duuuude. I want to be sent on worldwide adventures.
So, out of curiosity, do I get the award for Latest Seekrit Santa present?
I held the title last year. I suspect there's still a handful out there somewhere.
