I’m Back
Hello. I’m back. I was out of town showering a dear friend with baby gifts (ok, loafing at her house, eating her food, and attending a baby shower for her sure-to-be adorable evil spawn).
It was a five hour trip each way which means I had ten hours to read! I meant to bring more books, but I only had time to get two–Magic Burns by Ilona Andrews and Duke of Shadows by Meredith Duran. Since I really enjoyed both of these books (with some reservations) I read them both waaaaay too fast, which left me with a couple of nice two-to three hour chunks for editing (yay!) and math homework (boo!).
I’ll write more about the books when I get a chance–both of them did good things with their genres, and I’d love to read more books that are as well-written. For now, I’m going to try to keep myself on East Coast time by going to bed early (midnight, PST = 3 am EST so I go to bed early, but feel like I’m staying up late).

Welcome back. Glad to hear you had a good time.

Welcome back. I’ll be interested to hear what you say about both of these. It really is sort of different when you read a book quickly all in one or two sittings, isn’t it?
I just got Magic Bites and I’m really looking forward to reading it.

What’s wrong with math homework? You must not perpetuate the myth that writers don’t like math!
Judith Ivory has 2 degrees in math, I think. Which makes her that much awesomer, if only she wouldn’t pull a trick like disappearing off the face of the earth!
