Have you read the 3rd Sharing Knife book?
(I haven't. . . yet. Paying my humongous library fines will make it more likely that I will read it sooner.)
I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that put you?
Book ,'Objects In Space'
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."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yes, I have! And I still like the series and the characters and Bujold seems to be whipping 'em out, which makes me happy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
So excited!
I'm taking Multicultural Literature for Youth this semester and I just put all my books on hold at the library.
I was supposed to take African American Lit and was really looking forward to it, but turns out the prof I would have to have was not so good and the "literature" he uses is his own writing.
And he's not published.

Oh, you guys are going to love this. Another author caught plagiarizing.

I could see not remembering where you get a story from, really. But the only gracious thing to say when you get called out for it is "I'm sorry. I won't use it anymore." Thanks, Barb. I've met those guys before. They are like "the assholes upstairs" in every procedural, ever.
