3/5ths...

I have run out of marked-up manuscript. Now I have to find the last version I printed out and see how much further it goes from where I am now. I think that version, at least, is more current than this one from the critical point (which is where I am now, the critical point, which is why there are no more markups on the old manuscript, don't you ( Read more... )

Regarding desperance, did jemck nott tell you about him?

Shame on her!

mizkit June 19 2007, 17:03:36 UTC

I believe she did, and also that desperence himself used some shameless self-promotion. None-the-less, I'm taking credit for discovering him all by myself, in order to make myself look cool. :)

And Ted, who is Best, is bringing paper home for me, since I've forgotten to buy it every time I've left the house for anything else.

A Freudian slip or some such?

Um. I don't think so...

It's very gratifying to realise that one of one's favourite writers is recommending another of one's favourite writers. River of the World is a beautiful book.

My hubby, who rarely reads anything I recommend, is halfway through Urban Shaman and really likes it. Since he usually prefers hard SF and historical non-fiction, this is a remarkable achievement! I have just read Thunderbird Falls which is even better. Thank you!

Your husband's tastes in books and mine are in fact remarkably similiar (although I read a lot of fantasy too). I'm glad he's enjoying it, and that you thought THUNDERBIRD was even better (I thought it was too. I think COYOTE's better still!). You're welcome! :)

(Cool icon, BTW.)

Catie,

Sorry if this upsets the balance of things here. A friend sent me this, and while viewing, a couple of the portraits reminded me so much of your lady in 100 years I had to share. (The timer counts backwards, and they are at, about, time 155 and 132.)

Oh, yeah, isn't that *cool*? I saw it recently. -goes to watch to see which ones remind you of my lady-

Oh, how cool, somebody broke it down to all the images here!

Ok, now I want to write a story about them. Or her. :)

As the 'somebody' who broke down the images for the Women in Art video I would like to thank you for finding and posting my site. You finding me allowed me to find you and now you have a brand new fan! I read the Highlander novel right away (now THAT would make a great movie...) and immediately gained a proper appreciation of your talent (and besides, you have good taste in immortals...). My local bookstore only had Thunderbird Falls and Coyote Dreams, but I'll find the others. Thank you for sharing your talent... it is truly appreciated!

*beams* I have an irrational weakness for that Highlander novel. I think it'd make a great movie, too. I'm glad you liked it. :) And I hope you enjoy the other books too! Have your local bookstore order URBAN SHAMAN--it should only take a couple days to get it in. :)

The breakdown you did of the Women in Art video was great. I loved being able to get a good look at all the different images. Thanks for doing that!
