A clarification (good news!) about Points of Departure

[pameladean]

A number of people have asked whether Points of Departure, the collection of my and Pat Wrede's Liavek stories forthcoming from Diversion Books, will be available only as an e-book, or also in paper form. I have been answering "only as an e-book," but this is wrong. There will also be a POD version available, so that people who want paper can have it.

This is particularly pleasing because the cover is profoundly gorgeous and deserves to be wrapped around a paper version of the collection.

Last time I checked, the book was supposed to come out in May. I'll keep you posted.

Writers and publishers need to bear in mind that it's not just about holding something in our hands--those (annoying) tablet thingies are meant to be held in people's hands after all, even if computer touch pads inevitably make people want to throw the tablet into the lake. (Bad for the environment.) It's about words printed on paper being much easier for some people's eyes to read than words blinking on a computer screen.

I mean, when I seriously want to read every word of someone's blog, I print it out.

Yay book!

OT importunate question: years ago you shared with me a delightful salmon-spinach-pasta recipe that could be prepared mostly with the help of a microwave. I have since lost the recipe and was wondering if you had it ready to hand and would be willing to share it again; if not, please disregard this part of the comment.

I hope all's well!
