No Cats Allowed
A quick one -- there's a podcast now up of the reading I did (and the intro that preceded it, and the Q&A that followed it) on the ANANSI BOYS tour at The Tattered Cover in Denver, about nine days into the tour. It's the only reading I did where I did a couple of bits -- I was doing a request from my agent, Merrilee, who wanted to hear a specific bit. It's about 60 megs long, in all. (I'm afraid the funniest bit of the "Biggles" story is mimed, so you'll just have to imagine it.) I don't half go on a bit, I'm afraid. http://authorsontourlive.com/?p=24
The story of a scam agent that's as odd as any movie begins http://accrispin.blogspot.com/2006/01/victoria-strauss-another-one-bites.html, continues http://accrispin.blogspot.com/2006/01/victoria-strauss-lisa-hackey-saga-part.html and concludes at http://accrispin.blogspot.com/2006/01/victoria-strauss-saga-of-lisa-hackney.html. Read, enjoy, avoid crooked agents.
Someone recently sent me a link to http://www.jessicajoslin.com/jessica/index.html which I loved and passed straight on to the Fabulist -- http://www.fabulist.org/.
I enjoyed Michael Dirda writing in the Washington Post about Conan the Barbarian and Robert E. Howard....
Right. Maddy and I are about to experimentally watch some old Dr Who DVDs. Tonight, she encounters Jon Pertwee for the first time, because he is the only Doctor of whom I can say "I met him at a launch party for something once..."
