The City Pages interview with Lois Bujold, Pat Wrede, Caroline Stevermer, Peg Kerr, Lyda Morehouse, and me, and with Eleanor Arnason, who was interviewed separately with the same questions and whose answers are included with ours, is out.

I said, "I'm trying to parse the question" rather than "I'm going to parse the question," but otherwise I recognize everything that's attributed to me.

In other news, Sharyn tells me that the Firebird edition of The Secret Country is going back to press, and that if it keeps selling at this rate, will outsell the original edition.

Pamela, this is great news! I'm so happy for you! And thanks for the link to the very interesting interview.

Wow. Jackie

Congratulations on adding more readers! (I know that you don't care about mere money any more than I would.)

I must buy my Firebird copies. They're so *pretty*. And I must find somewhere that I can get myself to where you are, so I can get you to sign my old beat up copies and retire them honorably. :)

Yes, I knew you didn't travel much. I was more thinking I'd have to arrange to come to you. :)

I've even been to Minnesota once, without having any scarring experiences! :)

Indeed, I have noticed that there seem to be a disproportionate number of sf cons in Minnesota. I theorize that this is because the winters are long, cold and dark, and people have little else to do but 1. write sf and 2. go to conventions to talk about writing sf, combined with 3. the advantage of not being quite so horribly out of the way as Alaska, where the winters are also long, cold and dark. :)

You often go to Minicon, don't you? Perhaps I should see about going next year, since, as best I can tell, half the known sf world turns up there anyway. :)

BTW, congratulations on Tam Lin being reprinted! I first encountered Carleton through that book and was incredibly astonished when I then started meeting people, *lots* of people, who had attended a college I'd thought to be wholly fictional. In fact, I'm still a little suspicious about the whole thing. :) Anyway, congrats, that's fantastic, particularly on the heels of the Secret Country reprints doing so well!

Yippee! (and I did my part - the three Firebird books were what _everyone_ got for Christmas last year).

Woot!

Oh, they did, they did. Now I get occasional plaintive emails asking if there aren't more books in the series. So, I was glad to hear about the Firebird deal.

(and it makes present shopping _so_ easy!)

Ooo. I'm going to finish reading that interview, and post the link to it on [livejournal.com profile] whileaway!

Woo hoo!

All all good.

The photo was a great thing, as it confirms for me that I have never met, indeed probably have never laid eyes on, Caroline Stevermer.

Oh, excellent well done. Have been getting a few copies for people who would like it, and I'm glad this seems to be a habit well and widely shared.

Nice article, Pamela! I'll keep eyes peeled at Uncle Hugo's for The Secret Country. It wasn't listed in the newsletter we got yesterday; any idea of when it might appear at A Bookstore Near You?

I'm taking advantange of the new covers to booktalk them to the 5th and 6th grades this year.

When I was describing the series to the head children's librarian, she suggested we get a set for the children's room. (We normally order extra copies of the books we booktalk.)

Hi! I found your journal through a mutual friend, porcinea- I'm really pleased for you about the Secret Country re-release! I got the first two for Christmas this year too and have just finished the third. I found myself wanting to know "what happened next", so if there's any more in the offering, please let us know.
I also really apreciated the article, particularly with what it has to say about communities of writers- I think we could do with more of that in Melbourne. Thanks.
