Espresso Time!

[ellen_kushner]

Just get back from being GoH at a fine convention, and helping launch a huge charity auction for your best friend? Preceded by throwing a launch party for your wife's new book?  And QCing final chapters and revising the copy for your first audiobook, which is supposed to launch tomorrow?

Sure, all you want to do is crawl into a hole and cover

Heiresses of Russ? Um, so you don't know me outside of a few Boston/Somerville signings, but we are sharing space in that anthology. (I wrote "Her Heart Would Surely Break in Two.") I cannot adequately express how thrilled I am about this.

My friend engarian actually saw it before I did, after she read the squeeful post in my journal. If not for her, I'd be on pins and needles waiting to download it this evening.

Wow. Just . . . wow. Well, thanks to you both - and I aherm expect you and your minions to do your part, and Rate it over on the Audiobook page with slightly more stars than its current rating for STORY aherm harrumph.
