Aug. 5th, 2010 10:53 pmThere is whole wheat almond bread in the machine, bolognese sauce on the stove, and gazpacho in a state of almost-finished (need more tomatoes), and so while that all works on itself, I bring you reviews:
I knew this was coming a while back, but I'm one of Patrick at Stomping on Yeti's 25 Authors Worth Watching for 2010. There's a spotlight behind the link, and links to the rest of the list so far. It's kind of hellaciously good company, and I agree that these are people you should be reading, if you weren't already.
Here's a quick review of the Mammoth Book of Extreme Fantasy from Colin Harvey.
Also, I got into the same room as a copy of the Gardner Dozois Year's Best the other week, and have two honourable mentions. One's for "Six"; I think the other is "Parable of the Shower," but it shames me to admit that I have forgot. This was Book News Day, and so hopefully you'll understand if my head got crowded full of other stuff.
Otherwise, saw a free Metric show at Union Station last night -- eight songs total, maybe, but pretty high-energy and fun and hey, free; hung out briefly with a friend from high school tonight despite feeling icky this morning and afternoon. The weekend is pretty free and clear and I'm hoping to get some serious revising done. Life, you know. She trundles on.
I must to finish the gazpacho. Excusez-moi.
