Raq's suggestion of the Flick Filosopher is a great one--she's a huuuuuge fan of Serenity/Firefly, so she'd definitely be interested in your book! (She's also an author herself, even though her publisher went belly-up right before her first book was going to be published, so she had to self-publish it--it's a great book on The Princess Bride. She's working on another book now, this one about Doctor Who.)
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Has LJ gone all splody for anyone else?

I hied myself to Wikipedia (my source for all things straightforward on kink) to look up cosplay. I think the author of the article was reaching for things to include--though putting in a link to the Society for Creative Anachronism would send several people I know into the stratosphere of offended dignity. "Hey, Duchess! You're being lumped in with people who dress up as anime characters! And terrific work on that recreation of Elizabeth I's coronation gown."

I can't get in to lj, Jessica.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm LJ-free for a month.
Flick Filosopher looks film related.

It is, but she also writes at Geekphilosophy.com about general pop culture issues, so that's where her book reviews show up.
ETA: Since your book does deal a lot with Firefly and Serenity stuff, as well as Buffy/Angel, she'll probably address it on the FlickFilopher site, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
There's a new blog for girls from Gawker Media. You could send it there. It's called Jezebel. [link]
In other news, WTF, Gawker Media???
In actual other news, I swear to god one of these days I'm going to kill my boss. I hear her from her office, yelling out the door to her assistant, asking for my extension number. She's incapable of looking at a phone list? That's only the smallest annoying thing of today.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

For a minute there, I thought you meant the content.
But no, I'm getting in fine, so I suspect it's one of those occasional hiccups that varies by which server you live on.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
She's incapable of looking at a phone list?
yes, yes she is. Because that seems to be either what happens to people when they get promoted to being big bosses OR the type of people who get promoted to big boss.
I would not actually have a problem with this if assistants were really highly paid and valued.
