Okay. Stuff. I hope people are still reading this journal:

1. The eBay auctions are slowly picking up pace. Today a copy of The Ammonite Violin & Others limited was added. Please have a look, and bid if you can. All proceeds go to offset the very large and unexpected expense of yesterday's new iMac purchase.

Reading what, may I ask?

Sorry. Obviously, you meant the blog.

Hi Aunt B. I've got The Drowning Girl on pre-order. I've had to pass on Confessions sadly; it looks like my job's up Shit Creek and I'll have to rein in my book-buying for a while. I'm going to keep supporting SD for as long as I can, though.

Glad Mithrien's working okay for you. I'd be interested to hear your opinions on The Tempest. Still haven't seen it yet.

I'm looking forward to your thoughts on "The Tempest" as well. I've heard good things, but haven't had the chance to see it either.

Thank you all around, and don't feel bad. Even writers can't afford books these days.

Still reading, and very much looking forward to the trailer and the book and...

Do you have an advance copy of The Drowning Girl?

alumiere February 29 2012, 01:06:19 UTC

No, I'm not a reviewer or anything, just a fan.

Oh! Still reading the blog. Sorry.

Today I finished "Here Is No Why"...

That made me break out in the hugest grin - that is one of my all-time favorite songs, and all-time favorite albums.

Same here. That album, when I was in the band, we played a lot of the stuff from it at rehearsal.

catconley February 29 2012, 03:05:51 UTC

That's so cool. Was there a song of theirs you liked playing best?

greygirlbeast February 29 2012, 03:49:05 UTC

"Zero" and "1979."

"Shelter" and Free Comic Book Day. I will have to keep an eye out for this.

Completely unrelated to anything in your post, I came across an article on flying squid and felt it might interest you.

The flying squid are truly bow tie.
