There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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."

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I could see it going either way. I'm a bad test subject, as I saw the BBC first.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Joe had some Sandman. He also has Neverwhere. And Good Omens.

We just need to find them all.

Or go to the bleeding library.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I love Neverwhere, but I think it helps if you're a big London geek.

So apparently Judith Tarr, fantasy novelist who loves horses, is writing under a new pseud. Anyone know what it is?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

E-paper applications make me weak at the knees. I would love a sheet of 8.5x11 that I could print to from my laptop or desktop and then carry into, say the kitchen and have the recipe right there without having to take a computer in. Holds an image without power--that's hot.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Judith Tarr also wrote great historical Fantasy/Romances in which horses were not always the dominant element. (Though at least one had the romantic lead turned into a stallion for a large part of the novel.)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

The pseud she uses for those novels is Caitlin Brennan. The first in that series is The Mountain's Call.
