Even if there hasn't yet been a (I).

Today's icon was meant to be yesterday's icon, but better late than never.

My thanks to Benjamin for sending me an excerpt from Strange Horizons and Richard Larson's review of Eclipse Four (ed. by Johnathan Strahan). I think this review is my reward for surviving the coming day, even if the reward's arrived

Savor the glowing review. O, what a world we creatives would live in if reviews and sales were more closely allied. (sigh)

[greygirlbeast]

Yeah.

[stsisyphus]

...paying for stuff at The End of the World makes little or no sense (speaking of Rift, someone needs to tell the vendors at Terminus this very thing)

Come on Ms. K, you've play enough video games to know that there's never any Hero Discount.

[greygirlbeast]

Not the point - though, yeah, you'd think there would be a hero discount. Point is, moments after I sell something, the world ends. And the vendor knew the world was about to end. So...why is anyone bothering with commerce? Commerce is about future needs. No future, commerce ceases to have meaning (back to my dream).

Setting that aside, I am presently fooling around on Faeblight and got to talking on a channel and was directed to this. There has to be something good when the RP player community can get a specific Q&A session with a developer.

[greygirlbeast]

That is fucking awesome! Pretty much what I'd guessed for age, though I imagined elves lived longer still.

But "Tidal Forces" is at its most moving when these confrontations with the unknown are most closely aligned with the human factor, the idea of two people loving each other enough to believe anything for the other-especially if it might save her.

That is indeed an awesome and well-deserved review.

[greygirlbeast]

I was still asleep when I read the review, but it made me grin.

'Today's icon was meant to be yesterday's icon, but better late than never.'

Today's congratulations were meant to be yesterday's congratulations, but better late than never.

[greygirlbeast]

Indeed, and thank you very much.

[chris_walsh]

Congratulations keep. You don't even need to put them in a cooler.

I bought the last 2 Eclipse anthologies solely for CRK, and all fanboy bias aside, both "Tidal Forces" and "Galapagos" were the standout works in each.

p.s. I'm counting down the days til' you publish that TOC for Confessions of a Five Chambered Heart and I predict that the deluxe, signed edition (assuming there is one)will sell out even faster than The Ammonite Violin & Others.

I should be posting it within a few days.
