Is there any prospect of "The Flowers of Vashnoi" being published in print in the UK, please? (Import costs on the US print editions make those prohibitively expensive.)
Lois McMaster Bujold
I'm afraid not.
The nice SubPress edition of "Flowers", being sold out, is prohibitively expensive on the used market now even without shipping, though you can still get a (signed) copy from Uncle Hugo's at market price (ask) and they do ship worldwide.
It may be collected in some larger print volume someday, but that's not on the horizon yet.
Ta, L.
(There is no prospect of any of my work being paper-printed in the UK, my prior outings there having been traumatizingly disastrous for all concerned. Fortunately, ebooks interpret British publishing as damage and route around.)
(Also note the Baen editions of the two Penric & Desdemona print collections do have UK distribution rights.)

Lois McMaster Bujold:
Reading a Civil Campaign led me to become a devout Sayers, Austen, and Heyer fan, although I'm just now getting around to reading the Brontës. I just finished Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Brontë and was struck by its similarity to Ekaterin and Miles' story. Was that work an influence?

First of all, thank you. Miles Vorkosigan stands with D'artagnan in the chambers of honor of my mind. The Cetagandan apocalyptic threat hanging over Barrayarans that you outlined in Gentleman Jole's is quite book worthy. I am aware that you are not planning at the moment on writing anything else for the Vorkosiverse. However, that threat has so much potential... can I respectfully suggest to you to reconsider?
