1) As a reminder, the
book sale will be running until next Thursday morning. I should mention that my goal is to downsize my stock until it actually fits once more in the official Box of Author Copies. And, um. We're not there yet. <gives stacks of books the side-eye>
2) Pati Nagle is
donating $2 per sale from her book
Dead Man's Hand to the Food Bank of South Jersey for the remainder of this month.
3) On a different charitable front, the
Strange Horizons fund drive is in its last few days. All donors get entered into a draw for
these prizes, which include a full-color ARC of
A Natural History of Dragons.
4) Speaking of ANHoD,
mrissa
has a
lovely advance review of it up on her blog. (I think this is perhaps slightly less of a tailored-for-mrissas book than
A Star Shall Fall was, but apparently not by much.) Also, a
review of Lies and Prophecy, which I've been meaning to link to for a while.
5) Finally, I'm blogging at BVC again today, on
what makes a folktale. Go there to guess what makes some fantasy seem fairy-tale-like, even when it isn't actually retelling a fairy tale.
