Congrats on your acceptance letter!!

Huh, I don't know about the two other authors, but I've always thought Mercedes Lackey was sort of cheesy XD I remember a lot of deaths or non-deaths, reincarnation, gay characters who were really pretty, and... stuff. Cheesy stuff. Mmm. Cheese. But then my tastes seem to run along Tolkein/Beagle stuff or towards Pratchett stuff, like hardcore fantasy that's more like history or really light hearted fantasy that's practically a parody. xD

Sending power thoughts your way! *fistbump* I need some of those too, working on sort of a crazy comic that I'm hoping to sell at Comic Con this year @_@

Congrats on the study place! *swirls you around* You will be a great student, because you are so passionate about what you do.

A Game of Thrones - I want to watch this show so badly! *pouts*

Best of luck with the hearing...

I didn't read the NY Times article about Game of Thrones, but saw a tweet saying because of the article the tweeters women's reading group is now reading the book.

Such stereotypes -- ah...women love epic fantasy stories, too. I have no idea where they got their facts from!

I hope the hearing goes well for you today. Rotten former boss, trying to do you out of the money you deserve!

Re the epic fantasy, I always thought all types of fantasy were sneered at by hard SF fans for being predominantly female. :) Even at the epic, military end of the genre, there are plenty of women authors and women who read it. But I could be wrong, I don't have any actual figures, just my gut feeling.
