This is wonderful to hear. Thank you, Amych and t- (if I can ask what are the other two?)
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
#1 is the one with, oh gosh I beta-read that story so long ago I will probably get all the details but it had to do with debt and a caper and I want to say a circus? I may have muddled it up, but I love that world so much.
#2 is Updraft/Cloudbound. To be fair, I may only love it more than Gemworld because I know more about it (ie know enough to have SO MANY QUESTIONS), but that's the current standing.

Because this belongs in literary: Way to go Gud!
t- I think you betaed at least one I haven't released yet (circus-adjacent), plus the wasps. And yah. All the questions... I've gotten really good at not answering those. See: R/fantasy yesterday.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I grabbed my copy of Cog, Gud!
Sox, is the novella part of the Bone Universe or is it a separate thing? Because I could possibly find more time to read the novella first.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Got my e-copy of Cog, Gud, and added it to my "currently reading" section on Goodreads (which won't be actually accurate until my Kindle is back in range of my Wi-Fi, but still, boosting the signal!)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ordered a bound copy of Cog, Gud. And one of the novella, Fran, to keep Updraft company until Cloudbound is released.
I don't own a Kindle (I probably will, eventually), and truthfully, I'd rather have a book on my shelf, so that's what I buy. And will probably continue to, even if the day comes when most of my reading is done on a device.

SJ the novella is gemworld. There will be a set of linked short stories - another is up at BCS.
Thank you so much Beverly. I love buffista bookshelf.
I just turned in page proofs on CLOUDBOUND. I go boom now.

Woot, Sox!
