Babe, I would instead feel like a fucking rock star! "Look who I'm in an anthology with!"
Definitely this! You should be proud.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

I know Deb wouldn't do that.(she also wouldn't understand this particular discomfort...if she thought she didn't belong somewhere, it's because the place isn't happening enough.) And, yes, I published that because it's a "It's funny *now*" Just having a minor "One of these things is not like the others..." moment, even though I think the story stacks up fine...I don't believe that you could pick out my story as the rookie story, or anything. Which I'm proud about.

Sox, that's so cool! I love your questions. I'm almost lost in how cool they are, about food and books. Well done!

oh thanks! Steven's answers are great.
A heads up - I have a roundtable coming out in Strange Horizons in a couple weeks with four writers - Elizabeth Bear, Scott Lynch, Nalo Hopkinson, and Gregory Frost - that's all about food and fiction. Just in time for Thanksgiving. Bring your antacids.
