My editor at Harper e-mailled me to let me know that Coraline made the editors' list at SF Site (http://www.sfsite.com/columns/best03.htm) and the readers' list (http://www.sfsite.com/columns/best03b.htm).

This isn't really a question, but maybe an answer. I couldn't find another place on the site (okay, I'm lazy and didn't look exhaustively) to write, so here is my attempt to help. :)

I noticed the queries on where to find scholarly articles about you, and since that's what I do for a living (I am a scholar) I looked you up in the MLA database (which any researcher should do if they haven't already-- it's easy, just go to the research librarian and ask for the directions to the databases) and the Academic Search Premier. I found a couple of "hits" on articles published about you-- one, obviously, is an interview, and I guess one of them is by you.... But these might be helpful; you can send folks to find these, and perhaps there are good things to be found on these authors' biblographies, as well.

Good idea, and thanks...

I think all but the last are probably interviews with me - but a quick google showed the last one is online at http://www.dawn-joy.com/shakespeare/html/midsummeressay.htm
