There are a lot of y'all reading this blog.
I'm figuring it's time for one of those periodic getting-to-know-you posts. So if you'd like to introduce yourself, or you'd like to ask a question (any question, although I reserve the right not to answer), here's a superlative spot to do it at.
This is not a pressure-y kind of thing. Only an invitation.
And I'll reiterate a couple of things:
1. I almost never add people reciprocally. Because, well, I have 25 people on my reading list right now, and that's almost too many. There are many people whom I like and admire whose blogs I don't read. Apparently, I just need that processing power for something else.
2. I only reply to comments if I actually have something to say. However, I read all comments, and I am always, always grateful for them. (N.b., excluding the occasional and inevitable troll.) I forget to say that a lot, because sometimes I'm kind of a rotten excuse for a human being. But I'm definitely reading and interested.
So here. The lines are open and you're on the air.

Date: 2007-02-26 04:41 am (UTC)I'm Amanda, and don't speak Japanese, despite what my lj name makes people think. I'm 25, live in Australia and work in a bookstore where i'm desperately trying to convince our suppliers to put your book up on one of their lists. I manage the Sci-Fi/Fantasy section (and Computers, what the?), so i get to read brilliant things and call it working. This makes me incredibly happy.
I also read a lot of big chunky textbooks, because i'm doing a degree in Ancient History. They're less fun to read, but useful for whacking people upside the head with.
I only just found your lj (through the same girl i found your books through) - i will be one of those people who will post many comments, but won't have a tantrum if i don't get a reply. It's good to know they're being read though.
And that's enough about me. It's nice to (kind of) meet you. :)
