First
Today came my first editorial response of the year: a long (long!) overdue response from Space & Time. 302 days, to be precise. Made it past the associate editor only to be passed over at the end. Ah well.
In other news:
- Greg's made it onto the Nebula preliminary ballot;
- Jim sold his first novel;
- a British historian claims an Australian is the true king of England;
- and Bush is definitely announcing plans to go back into space (Moon, Mars, and parts beyond, I believe).
Currently Reading (or perhaps, About to Be Reading After I Finish This Post): Gene Wolfe's The Knight. One lovely thing about working in a library: occasionally they put a list down in front of you and say "what books do you want to order?" And then, when they come, you get to see them before anybody else.
