Lois McMaster Bujold:
I am an admirer of your work. One of your greatest talents is creating whole, interesting characters that make you want to follow the story, and the complete worlds the characters inhabit. When I start one of your books, I know I will escape into another dimension. When you write, do you set the stage (place and time), or does the character evolution do that for you? Do you use outlines in your creative process?

Happy Winterfair wishes to Lois and all who read her works. I am assuming that Winterfair takes place on and around the Winter Solstice, which is today, as I type this, on Old Earth. And Penric, Des and the rest in the world of the Five Gods should be celebrating Father's MidWinter? I can't remember, do the Sharing Knife characters celebrate a middle of winter holiday?

So with the deal between Kobo and Walmart (see, for example, http://www.businessinsider.com/walmart-will-start-selling-rakuten-kobo-ereaders-and-ebooks-2018-1), any plans on adding Kobo to your list of ebook sites? (I don't actually have a dog in this fight, since I don't currently own any sort of e-reader -- I just use whatever apps are provided by Amazon/B&N/Apple -- but the news item caught my eye.)
