Letters from the Onyx Court
Jan. 27th, 2012 01:04 pmI'm tempted to follow in the shoes of Mary Robinette Kowal and participate in the Month of Letters . . . or rather, have my characters participate.
But I don't want to advertise my home address to all the world, so I'd need to get a P.O. box. And that means I need to take the temperature of the Internet first, to see if there's any interest. Would you like to receive a letter from the Onyx Court? If so, drop a comment here, on Twitter (@swan_tower), or via e-mail (marie[dot]brennan[at]gmail[dot]com) to let me know.
I figure all characters from that series (including the short fiction) are fair game, though be warned that some are better correspondents than others. :-) If I do this, I'll probably ask that you put a date on your own letter, so that I'll know when the character should be responding; after all, Lune would write a very different response in 1588 than she would in 1757. (Mortal characters contacted before their births or after their deaths are not likely to respond at all.)
I even, like Mary, have quill pens with which to respond -- though it may become a tossup between authenticity of writing implement and legibility of the handwriting . . . .
