On the way to brunch
real soon now so this is the rare and elusive pre-coffee posting.
First - Huge congrats to Melissa Scott, Kathleen Bradean and M. Christian - their Haunted Hearths stories were all selected for the first annual Best Lesbian Fiction anthology from Bedazzled Ink. :-D
Next up - the Vogel Awards (fan awards for best sf/f/h) are tonight in New Zealand and Lynne and Lynn are both up in short fiction for their HH stories, in what may be the first time that LGBT stories have made it to the Vogel finals. Good luck!
Werewolfy goodness in progress. I'll do a word count update later on. Other stuff also in motion.
And on the personal front, Jana broke the news about our planned nuptials to portions of her clan (all small to medium-sized town dwelling Utah Mormons) on her birthday. So far, we're Sister +10 ("Makes sense. You two have been together a long time"), Parents -27 (mini-lecture on how this will, like the election of Barack Obama, lead to the decline and fall of Amerika as they know and love it. One can only hope). My parent is taking it in stride and trying to figure out logistics.
