A few years ago, I started reading Judith Tarr's horse-related posts at a site called Book View Cafe. I followed the blog, and noticed other interesting people were associated with it: Chaz Brenchley. Sherwood Smith. Ursula K. Le Guin.

This, I thought, looked like a good crowd of people.

Which is why I'm very pleased to announce that I am a newly-minted member of Book View Cafe. It's more than just a blog; it's an authors' collective, doing ebooks and other ventures, all through shared labor. So far I'm still finding my way around, getting a feel for how they do things -- getting lost in the (massive) behind-the-scenes infrastructure -- and so at the moment you won't see much from me on the public-facing side of the group. But I hope to have some very interesting things to show you all in a few months.

In the meantime, I'm very grateful to the membership, and hope I can measure up to their fine example!

Began reading Lady Trent last night--this is a terrific book!

Who is your editor at Tor?

Ah well. Don't know him. I wanted to run by what I *think* is a perfect blurb, but might not be, as I am total and complete crap at marketing.

He'd just wonder who the hell this obnoxious twit was wasting his time. I'll come up with several alternatives to be passed along, which he can either use or ignore.

I seriously doubt that . . . but I look forward to seeing what you say, regardless. :-)

Oh yay - congrats ^_^ That's a fine crowd indeed - I stock my eReader from them each time I travel, and will be very interested to see what you'll have there :-)
