I wish I could read Flowers of Vashnoi in print. I wasn't fast enough to get the limited edition from Subterranean Press. Is there any likelihood of getting this novella in print in some other way, like a compilation with something else? I may have to break down and figure out how to download the ebook, but I don't really like those.

Not any time soon, but I have been mulling whether to set it up as some sort of print-on-demand volume, probably combined with "Winterfair Gifts", which has no separate paper volume at all. It would be a fair amount of work, but do-able.
It was pubbed on paper, back when, in the Baen omnibus volume Miles in Love, still available variously used. And also as an ebook, I see.
Ebooks are incredibly easy, once over the first hump. I hang out in the Amazon ecosystem myself, but other vendors have similar offerings. Just download the free Kindle app, which may be found somewhere on their home page or near it, to whatever device you read on -- laptop, tablet, phone, or desktop -- and you should be ready to purchase. (Well, there's a credit card registration in there somewhere, natch.)
I read almost nothing but ebooks these days, due to eyesight issues. Instant large print!

I own most of your books in ebook and eaudio format but get most of the rest of my e-reading/listening from the library. Did you know publishers charge libraries crazy amounts for their ebooks? The example of a current popular book my library gave was $55 for a $15 ebook and $95 for a $40 audio. Then they have to rebuy in either 2 years or a certain number of checkouts. I realize publishers are in it for money but..
