Friday Quick Notes

First up, big news! Self-Reference ENGINE by Toh EnJoe is a Philip K. Dick Award nominee! If you ever grumped about how most SF these days is just either a military adventure story or just fantasy with rayguns instead of spells, then you owe it to yourself to get a copy. And you owe it to me to get nine other copies and distribute them to strangers.

No other real news except that the baby is adorable, and I am suffering from a mix of allergies, asthma symptoms, and cold symptoms and have been since journeying East, where I did stupid things like shovel snow in four-degree weather, and then ride on a ferry across the Long Island Sound. I'm actually going to the doctor next week, which is highly unusual for me.
