Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

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."

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Jilli, that's awesome!

ION: I came home to the October 14/21 issue of Entertainment Weekly with an ad for "Five of this season's hottest new reads," including one Cold Kiss, by Amy Garvey. I was reading author names, "Carey, Gray, Garvey...Amy!" I was so excited. Hey Amy, you're in EW!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Oh, this is all wonderful news to see first thing in the morning. Congratulations, Jilli and Amy.

Yay for Jilli and Amy both!!

And, um, not having read Pratchett before, is he retiring from writing? Why is he not doing any more book tours after this?

What have I been reading? Zoo City, One Salt Sea, Heartless, and This Isn't What It Looks Like. More people should read the Secret Series! It's so much fun!
