'Why We Fight'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Eowyn was seriously one of my first role models, the first time I remember thinking "holy shit, girls can be awesome!" We had a record of RotK from the animated movie, and so I remember that phrase from a decade before reading the books.
Gah, I really hope they make a book of all those pictures. BUT NOT THE STUPID ONES. If I ever have a daughter (or, heck, a son) I'll frame some for her walls.
I read a lot of both Loises, but the one I remember most is Killing Mr. Griffin.
Anyone want to help with a guest blog post I have to do? They want to know my ten favorite literary couples, and I'm coming up short. I have seven so far:
1) Jane/Rochester
2) Kit/Nat (Witch of Blackbird Pond)
3) Jo/Professor Bhaer
4) Clare/Henry (The Time Traveler's Wife)
5) Hermione/Ron
6) Aislinn/Seth (YA, Wicked Lovely)
7) Claire/Jamie (Outlander)
Who am I missing? Or who are some of yours?
Cordelia/Aral Vorkosigan
Raven/Alexander (YA, Vampire Kisses)
... I suppose Morticia/Gomez doesn't count, since there aren't really any Addams Family books. ('tho good G-D, I would kill to work on books for that.)
Oh, man, that would be fun, Jilli. It could be a YA! Their early days!
Harriet Vane/Lord Peter Wimsey
Nick & Nora Charles
Meg/Calvin (Wrinkle in Time et al)
Anne/Gilbert (Anne of Green Gables)
Ishmael/Queequeg
Also, what Connie said.

I keep meaning to talk to my agent about it to see what she thinks, but then I keep telling myself, no, finish the fiction project first.
Other couples:
Snape/Lily (I can't help it. Sev, you poor bastard.)
Richard/Alec (Swordspoint)
Amy, do you Discworld?
How literally do they mean "couple"?
What about:
