marinessS, C and I are off for Gen Con tomorrow, which means my access to and time on the internet will be greatly limited for a week or so. So, some small things before I go, in case I don't get around to it tomorrow:
1. The usual Tor.com post should be up on Thursday, as I continue to read my way through the works of Edith Nesbit.
2. This got kinda lost in all of the LJ troubles of last week, but, Bull Spec #6, which features a little poem of mine, "Petals," is available for sale in print or pdf format. It's got lots of good stuff in it.
3. Bull Spec also has some good buzz about the upcoming issue of Fantastique Unfettered #3. (Link is to the Bull Spec review; for some reason Blogger is telling me that I am not allowed to access Fantastique Unfettered at the moment. The internet. It is such fun.) This issue features poems by lots of people, as well as short fiction from me andskogkatt AND an interview with Mike Allen (time_shark. I believe it's coming out at the end of the month, and I'll have more information about it then.
4. If you have any pity to spare, and I realize this week you might not, send it to a very sad little black and white cat, who saw me packing up the suitcase today. He put two of his toy mice in it, in a hopeful sort of way, and I had to break the bad news to him that the Indianapolis Convention Center is most unreasonable on the subject of cats, even over friendly ones. I'm just grateful that I found the mice before I left (although I'm sure he'll try to sneak one in again) and that I've mostly kept him out of the suitcase, but this is a very sad little cat right now, hiding under the bed, with even his companion in naps ignoring him. On a related note the Grey One is highly irritated that I dared – dared – enter the closet when she was using it for napping periods, which is just Not Ok, even though I have informed her that everyone in this house is out of the closet, including her, and in any case this house is filled with several excellent napping areas. This argument went nowhere.
The Little One is rarely this upset when I pack (then again, I rarely pack in advance, so I suspect he thought I was leaving today), but the last time I packed up this suitcase was World Fantasy Con, which was also the same time we moved, and he came into a new house without me.
