Ms. Bujold -- Thought you might be amused to see this article on real-life butterbugs; the whole pitch (converting organic waste to useful products, etc.) sounds awfully familiar. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/07/03/maggots-could-revolutionize-global-food-supply-heres-how/?utm_term=.4667224429bf Now all we need is an aesthetics consultant . . .

Lois McMaster Bujold:
Sorry about the mysterious terminology! The Moravians were/are a radical Protestant sect who considered both main sexes equally divine, and so believed that in order to be fully deified, Jesus had to be feminine as well as masculine, so the side wound gave him a sacred vulva, sort of. (Also saw sex as a form of prayer, but the ways this worked got kind of rigid/surveillancy) They still exist, but are less radical now?

Dear Lois, Thank you for all the excellent hours of reading over the years. I really have to force myself to slow down when you have a new release because it's always bittersweet to wait a year or more for a book and then finish it in a day. I'm really enjoying penric. I'd write more, but I have to get to my question. Do you have any recommendations for someone looking for a new author to read?

As you've gotten older, wiser, and perhaps a more capable writer, do you look back on things you wrote early in your career and wish you could change them? I once saw an interview with Spielberg about Close Encounters of the Third Kind. He talks about how he could never have had Richard Dreyfus' character go off on the space and leave his children behind, if he'd made the movie after he became a father. Thanks.
