Reminder: Letters from the Onyx Court

You have a little over two weeks left in which to get a letter from the Onyx Court, hand-written by yours truly, in the persona of a character of your choice. Get 'em while they're hot, folks! (By which I mean, before I lose all ability to hold a pen, from concentrating so hard on not writing m when I mean n, and some weird many-humped scribble when I mean m.)

If I have time, I'll post a report -- with pictures, even -- of my adventures with the Spencerian System of Practical Penmanship. Yes, I gave it a shot. The results were . . . interesting.

Two bits of news

First of all, I'm featured over at "The Page 69 Test" (here and here), talking about page 69 of With Fate Conspire, and whether it's a good sample of what the book is like or not.

And second, the Intergalactic Awards Anthology is out, containing my Driftwood story "A Heretic by Degrees" -- as well as stories by a couple of friends of mine, aliettedb's "Horus Ascending" and Von Carr's absolutely fabulous "Sister Jasmine Brings the Pain."

And now, back to cleaning my living room.
