We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

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."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Whee!

Damn it.

I know what I'm spending my yard sale earnings on now.

I must wait and not buy it until my next flight, as Pratchett makes excellent airplane reading.

Mind you, that's only a week away. Still hard, dammit.

move out and draw fire

I just started The Geographer's Library >[link] and I think I like it a lot. It reminds me some of Dictionary of the Khazaars and some of Jorge Luis Borges.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

It is called Thud! Who would have Thunk it?

Thud is the name of the Discworld version of chess.

Mr. Pratchett is going to be doing a reading in Seattle on the last Tuesday of this month, and you better believe I'm attending.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Pterry is doing a reading in the DC area on Tuesday, which I can't attend because of dance practice. Ah, well, at least I got to hear him read from Thud! at Interaction in Glasgow...

As much as the Vimes-Vetinari show gives me great joy and satisfaction, isn't it about time for another Death or Granny Weatherwax story?

As much as the Vimes-Vetinari show gives me great joy and satisfaction, isn't it about time for another Death or Granny Weatherwax story?

Oh, yes. Even though Granny does show up in "A Hat Full of Sky," it's not enough. Actually, I'd love to see what happened if Granny and Vimes ever met each other.
