Have spent pretty much all day sitting in front of my computer. Story edits, reading submissions, writing rejections, sending revision requests, email, a bit of Websurfing, this and that. I'd kinda like to go rent a movie or two for the evening, but that would involve leaving the apartment, and since I'm on a roll, I should probably just keep working. So nice to have a long uninterrupted block of time to start getting caught up on stuff.<\/p>\n
But for now, I'm gonna go have dinner.<\/p>\n
Oh, but first I wanted to mention one other thing: perusing the programming for WisCon, I'm struck by how many of the program participants I'm acquainted with. . . . Okay, perhaps \"struck\" is too staid a word; I'm totally tickled to have interacted with so many cool people who either have or will soon have established places in the SF firmament. I admit it (perhaps I've admitted it before): some part of my wanting to be an editor is pure fanboyishness.<\/p>\n
Okay, one other<\/em> thing: Michael Jasper has posted a review of this week's SH<\/cite> fiction, \"Bringweather and the Portal of Giving and Taking<\/a>,\" at Tangent Online<\/a>,<\/cite> and he really liked the story. The review starts out:<\/p>\n I think it's safe to say that you've never read another story quite like \"Bringweather and the Portal of Giving and Taking\" by Barth Anderson, and I mean that as high praise.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n It's the most positive review we've had at Tangent<\/cite> in a while (though Michael's also liked some of the other stuff we've posted recently); I'm pleased. And it's also the shortest time between posting a story and posting a review that I've yet seen at Tangent,<\/cite> which is also nice.<\/p>\n (If you can't view the full review there, it's because you haven't subscribed to Tangent.<\/cite> You can either wait 3 weeks for the review to become available to nonsubscribers, or you can subscribe, at the low low price of only $5\/year. Or you can just go read the story itself.)<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Have spent pretty much all day sitting in front of my computer.
