A few bits and pieces for a Thursday morning.

My darlingest dearest Paul Cornell asked me to write a post about one of the twelve days of Christmas for his blog, and because he has a newborn son and thus gets to ask me for free content without being looked at sadly, I wrote a post about the hidden blackbirds that come on the fourth day. Four colly birds for all of you!

I love your description of jumping into snow for the first time on your post on Paul Cornell's blog. It made me laugh so hard I snorted

[seanan_mcguire]

Snow is TOO cold. Do not want.

[alicetheowl]

Indeed. Note that the first memory to come to mind is of how I'd avoid it. I missed it when I lived in the South, but really, I wouldn't mind if every winter was as mild as last year's.

I'm going to start reading Velveteen today/soon!! Yay!!

[greyduck]

You are in for SUCH a treat. Vel was my gateway drug to Seanan's awesomeness.

Then the question becomes, do I wait for the second volume or just read all the stories online?

[greyduck]

I read the stories online; I just picked up the ebook a couple weeks ago and will be re-reading through that once I'm done with my current reading stack...

Visiting the Tumblr was worth it for the Second Breakfast Club post, which somehow I'd not seen until today.

Also: Hell yeah Sailor Moon.

Awesome.

I bought several pairs of catnip eyeballs! They're going to be best :)

[seanan_mcguire]

They really are.

[phoenixsansfyr]

The eyeballs arrived today. The cats have already attempted to tear into the packaging. I may not make it out alive.

I almost want to get a tumblr just for all the lovely Sailormoon stuff out there.

I know, right?
