Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

erika, that's - yep.

One of my favourite novels was written in the thirties, called The Chinese Room. The title referred to that place in everyone's soul where, in the end, no one else ever gets to go, no matter how frantically we wave them in.

The ultimate cave.

Any librarians reading? Booklist review is out today, page 35.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I just finished my rough draft.

It's a strange feeling, at once triumphant and bereft. And I feel like the real work is still to come--editing it until it's the best I can make it, querying agents and editors, in general doing all I can to find it a home.

But I did it. I've written two books. That's something, right?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Definitely something. Congrats, Susan!

Susan, that's awesome! Just let it rest a bit before you dive into edits.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Susan, congrats x 10!

Go, Susan! Good on you.
