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."

He is great too (though I don't know him as much as I know Didi).

Read a couple of good novellas or short novels (not sure about the nomenclature) recently: Princess Floralinda and the Forty-flight Tower by Tamsyn Muir and Seven of Infinities by Aliette de Bodard. Both very good. I kinda want to talk about Floralinda but I also don't know what I can say about it except if you like Tamsyn Muir you probably want to read it. And Seven of Infinities made me want to reread all the Xuyu stories. I do like that universe a lot.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
A spokesperson said: “With lockdown regulations giving rise to all manner of novel sexual practices, the judges anticipate a rash of entries next year. Authors are reminded that cybersex and other forms of home entertainment fall within the purview of this award. Scenes set in fields, parks or back yards, or indoors with the windows open and fewer than six people present will not be exempt from scrutiny.”
LOL

Now tagless for your comfort.
If any romance reading buffistas would like a t-shirt, I have a couple of the Ripped Bodice Fundraiser tees to give away (I ordered an extra one, they sent the wrong one, and then they sent the right one, so, extra tees!) I have a m/m and a f/f, soft grey short sleeved tee. Claim them and PM me and I will send them to you at no expense.
Examples are here [link]

"Mayor for Today" in the January Asimov's is good stuff. This Wilde writer is worth following...
