truepennyThere 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: 2007-02-27 08:41 pm (UTC)I found Melusine because it was recommended to me by a dear friend who works in a bookstore. She's the only person I know who can convince me to pay full price for a hardcover just on her say so, and she promised it had everything I like in a fantasy- brothers, madness, ghosts, the whole works. She was right, and I knew I'd have to read everything you write because Melusine was one of those rare books that not only demanded my full attention, but when I had to set it down to go to bed or work or eat, the world of the novel seemed more real than everything around me, which is a very strange and surreal feeling.
My name is Molly (heh). I have a lovely wife and two cats. I majored in Roman History and Latin in college and according to my original life plan I should be finishing my masters and headed for a PhD somewhere. Instead I find myself working in a cube farm doing tech support. I'm not sure what happened there. I like catching the classical references and I love the running thing with the labyrinths. I read your blog because I love your essays and glimpses of your life and process. I live in VA and will not likely get to meet you in person any time soon. I hope Summerdown is going well, and I am still trying to figure out why I like Felix so much when he can be such a bastard.
My question- Is Summerdown the last we will see of Felix and Mildmay? You probably don't know, but I like the series so much I would be sad to see it end.

Also, your icon is awesome.
