Sandy asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Did you hear that Lord Miles was withdrawn from the Derby? It eerily echoes the fictional Lord Miles getting pulled from the "race" and path he had so aspired to (only it was another horse that tragically broke its leg, leading to the withdrawal). Will Lord Miles the horse be able to find an alternate path forward as did the fictional Miles? We await the outcome.

MG
MG asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

A lifelong fan of sci-fi books, I worked in publishing for 40 years. Yet it was only in 2021 when I stumbled upon THE CURSE OF CHALION with its compelling, complex, and shrewd characters and a world with a sophisticated and believable theological/magical system. Since then I have read almost all your works (a few volumes of Miles still to go). So why are your books not better known? How did this injustice happen?

Rick Ellrod asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Ms. Bujold -- I don't know if you've run across this news item, but of course I thought immediately of butterbugs. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2016/08/29/mealworm-margarine-could-be-right-around-the-corner-would-you-try-it/ Now all they have to do is make them glorious, right?
