oh fer the love of ... !

So help me, I just figured out the main plot arc of The Sidhe Tigers, the postcolonial literature of elves baseball novel.

This is indirectly [livejournal.com profile] elisem's fault, because Sidhe Tigers is her work, as is Engineering for Elves and Eating the Dark Flower, and last night she put up earrings called Elves in the Wheatfield Breakdown: a song for banjo, which I was not, alas, quick enough on the draw to bag. But it made me start thinking about The Sidhe Tigers again. And this morning I know things I didn't know last night.

The human protagonist is an African-American slugger named Marigold Dempsey. Last night I didn't know there was a human protagonist.

I don't really groove with the concept of Muses. What I think I have is Cats of Creativity. And one of them just dropped half a very dead vole on my foot.
