Lois McMaster Bujold:
I'm a Kobo ereader user. (As an overseas librarian, I dislike Kindle's proprietary attitude, and avoid them.) I noticed only a few of your books were available in the Kobo store. I remember years ago there was an independent site that had many of your ebooks, but I'm not sure they're still working. Is there a chance that Spirit Ring and the Baen books would be available in non-Kindle epub format sometime soon?

My direct-placement e-books are all currently available in Kindle, iPad, and Nook versions. There is some doubt among the people who help me with these things that Kobo is a large enough vendor to be worthwhile; this may change in future.
The old Fictionwise got bought out and eaten by Barnes and Noble. So all those placements are long gone.
HarperCollins does seem to have my fantasy novels up in the public library Overdrive system. I don't have a clear idea about how that is working out. I would like to get my direct placement e-books out on there as well, but that is waiting on finding out more.

The astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti on the International Space Station is a Trekkie and has posed for pictures in the ISS in a Star Trek costume. Do you also have fans in high places? Other than us Goodreads followers, of course. (Trekkie astronaut picture: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/05/05/first_espresso_in_space/)
