Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You're welcome! (I must confess I was confused at first and didn't realize your reading wasn't in the same location as the Hugos. But still!)

When I ask someone if they would be interested in a copy of my book for comment, and they say yes, how long after is reasonable to follow up and ask if they have had a chance to glance at it? Would you say a month is not being too naggy?

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I would, but let the publishing pros weigh in. Some offices kind of close down for the summer, though.

Because books.

Can you explain what you mean, Typo? What does "for comment" mean? A review? A quote?

I'm hoping for a mention in a blog post. So somewhere between a public comment and a review.

In my experience, that's not the sort of thing you nudge someone about. If they're interested and have time, they'll do it.
