Congratulations, Sox!
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Well-deserved, Sox!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
My copy of Joe Hill's The Fireman came in today! I have a stack of books I really want to read right now (Sox's books, the newest Mercy Thompson, and several books by Richard Kadrey) and no time or energy to read any of them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was not aware of the Compton Crook award, but Diane Duane just tweeted out that Updraft also won that.
Context: The Compton Crook Award is presented to the best first English language novel of the year in the field of Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Horror by the members of the Baltimore Science Fiction Society, Inc, at their annual Baltimore-area science fiction convention, Balticon, held on Memorial Day weekend in the Baltimore, Maryland area.

ETA: go on, correct my grammar, I demand it.
