I forgot to mention also - I finally got my Siren Beat author copies (thank you, Australia Post, only 6 working days from Perth) and FINALLY got to read the quote on the front. girliejones had teased me by telling me it was awesome, but not what it actually said ( Read more... )

Stefen is very well known in the Perth SF world, an old friend to quite a few of us, and an exceptional bookseller who is a very good judge of what sells.

Yes, once I saw the Spacejock reference on Google I figured out who he was - I seem to remember him being pretty supportive of ASIM, too.

Which is why giving it to him to read was only a leeeetle bit terrifying.

Do I *dare* ask what a mean streets dance might look like??

It involves a fedora, a trench coat and the pink panther theme tune.

Oh, well that's all fine then. I was having hallucinations of a fascinator, fish nets, and the song 'Fever'. But that's the wrong sort of mean streets I think.

maybe something from Guys and Dolls...

Cool to see a great quote on the book, and it's doubly-special to hear it was from Stefen.

He liked it a lot!

Let's hope he's up for selling some too!
