Congratulations, Sox! I didn't even know Nature published short stories. How cool! It's evocative, although I can't quite figure it out.

I didn't know they did stories either. That's a wonderful story, very bare, just like the planet.

Sox, that's a brilliant little story. You do a lot with very little there, embedding the world-building in the interpersonal drama. So well done...

Sox, awesome! DIBS ON AN INTERVIEW WHEN YOU SELL A NOVEL.
Gud, you too!
Oh, woo! Glass Heart is out. Must read this weekend, beg Amy for a follow-up! Must re-read Cold Kiss again; it's been...6 months since I lent it to my sis.

Congrats Sox!
If I manage to sell Cog, I'll be thrilled to give you an (probably not very exciting) interview :). I'll waiting on edits from my agent right now so I've still got plenty to do before Cog gets subbed.

I love it, Sox; it's really, really good.

Because books.
I just found it -- it's here -- and it's really beautiful. So spare, but really emotional. I loved it.
