Today is Help Machine of Death Becomes a Bestseller for One Day Day! We have already rocketed the book to #1 for the moment, but I thought I'd post a link in Press because this anthology does feature a story from our very own erinaceous.
ONLY A COUPLE OF DAYS LEFT. REALLY.
It's the time of year again for the Secret Buffista Gift Exchange! Ok, it's actually earlier. In the hopes of having more time for people (to send multiple things or messages or taunts) and having fewer late gifts, I am starting early.
Anyone interested in exchanging small presents with other Buffistas during the holiday/year-end/solstice/non-religion or culture specific season, Follow this link to join elfster and set up a profile with your preferred email/snail mail and important info: [link]
I am hoping this site will work for us, but if we start to have problems, I will do the matching manually.
Please register at elfster by 10/30. I'll have the site match names and send out notices 11/1. If there are any issues or questions, profile address is good as is IM or FB IM (if I'm on) rlboston 14 without the space.
Mary Borsellino's book, The Wolf House, will be appearing in print any day now. In celebration, DP is giving away a copy of it in print and in ebook, as well as a copy of our upcoming ghost story antho, Crossings. You can buy a book to enter, but you can also just come tell us about your favorite classic horror story. Visit the website at [link]
(edit: it would help if I told you where to go to enter.)
Anyone that might be interested in playing in the next online iteration of Battlestar Galactica should speak up in the Gaming thread.
Note: You do not need to own a copy of the board game to participate.
We know you are out there. Speak now, or forever be suspected of being a cylon.
Names have been drawn for the 2010 gift exchange. If you did not get an email or if there is any issue (like you drew yourself or you drew me and you hate me, email me and we will work out a switcheroonie).
If there are any issues as the exchange goes on, again, email me. Deena has the magic list of info and you can also put info up on your elfster profile page.
