Kissing and sailing!

[sistermagpie]

Hey! So the amazing pts had an idea a while back. The idea was:

It occurred to us one bourbon-seasoned afternoon in March that Kissing and Adventure make really excellent partners-you know, in stories. And we thought to ourselves how grand it would be to assemble an anthology of fiction dedicated to making that case.
And lo, this idea became a reality

OK, I had to read more about Orpah and Girt, and went and got the Kindle version.

I assumed you were planning to dissect me at some point. Who wouldn’t want a closer look at this body?” -- just . . . wonderfully Wrong, yay! :)

It's been way too long -- how are you?

[sistermagpie]

Hurray for biologist humor! I'm so glad you liked it--and so flattered you have it on a Kindle!

It has totally been too long. I've been good--wrote a paper on The Hunger Games for the Sirens Conference this year, had a story in this thing, did some kids biographies and now I'm struggling to get people into bed for Yuletide.

How are you? What have you been up to???

[black_dog]

Sounds like some fun and adventurous projects! What did you end up writing about Hunger Games? I remember your posts about the book and about Peeta. I confess I still haven't gotten through Catching Fire, though I read a chunk more after you encouraged me to get past the love triangle. :)

As for me, I am just working working and randomly reading -- dull and reasonably content, which I confess is a combination to be wary of :)

Mockingjay is definitely the worst of the trilogy, imo. It's weird that I wind up talking about it so much since it didn't excite me that much! The theme of the conference this year was "tales retold" so I wrote about...basically the different forms of communication in the books. There's words that the Capitol mostly controls, and then this communication with signs and gifts and things, and then stories. I did have some funny quotes about the love triangle that came up, basically how everyone hated it.

That poem will definitely be a warning to me!

Awesome! I just downloaded it to my ipad.

Woo-hoo! This is so exciting to me! :-D
