books and more books

I'm not sure if I have mentioned it here, but I should note if for no other reason than to rekindle memory when I am eighty. One of my friends, the ever thoughtful [livejournal.com profile] rm, is publishing The Book of Harry Potter Trifles, Trivias and Particularities, which comes out in November and should be full of enough factoids to play some good Harry Potter oriented Trivial Pursuit this Christmas. Go, order now!

Another friend of mine, [livejournal.com profile] ladyjaida, is publishing her first novel next year with her coauthor [livejournal.com profile] danibennett. Jaida is so awesome because she's writing a novel with mechanical dragons and Peter S Beagle is writing a cover blurb for her. (My twelve year old self just had a fainting spell after that sentence out of sheer joy.)

It is interesting how so many of my friends are brimming with talent. It makes me think I do a poor job of keeping company with them. (I've written exactly two short stories this year)

ahh my dear, remember you are a spritely young thing...your time is to come...let your being "season" a bit, like a fabulous wine (or pickles.)
