Some Notes
First off, swan_tower has completed the first draft of her most recent novel, well ahead of schedule. Go over there and congratulate her; this'll be her third published novel.
Second, I point you to a fascinating post on the wives of presidents and vice-presidents by nhw. I find it somewhat ironic that, of the two people I've seen post interesting things about US history in the last year or so, one (nhw) is Irish and one (robotnik) is Canadian. Don't we have any domestic historians who can hold forth interestingly on this topic?
Also, I remind you that Strange Horizons's fund drive is running right now, as it has been extended through the 15th of August. You should go contribute! It's tax deductible, and there are a whole raft of nifty points about the magazine that coalescent, our Senior Reviews Editor, enumerates here. The short form is that it's free, high quality content that comes to you weekly. It's award-winning. It's shiny.
That's it for me for now. Back to wedding preparation.
