Random Link

So I slept through a message from [livejournal.com profile] popelizbet last night that this morning has turned me on to something so amazing that I'm putting the link up top instead of at the bottom of this post.

Apparently, at some point when I wasn't looking, Cat Valente wrote Deathless, a novel about Russian fairy tales set in the Stalinist era. It's not out yet, but you can read a three chapter excerpt and a kick-awesome comic book adaptation of part of it online, for free.

I seriously have no idea how I missed this project up until now. It looks like it may, in fact, be the greatest thing ever.

News For Today

Regular Tales of MU service will resume Monday. I've got things just about hammered out with where things are going in the remainder of the first volume.

Personal Assessment

I slept a ton last night. I feel okay today. Moderate fog, which is to be expected after the melatonin. No idea what tonight will be like. I'm definitely going to be pilling it for the next few nights or so, at the very least.

Plans For Today

I've been piddling around with Gift of the Bad Guy. I'm going to wrap up what I'm writing there, take a hot bath, and then start working on the Blackwater Province folktales that have been bobbing around my head for the past few days.

She read part of Deathless at ConBust last year- after more than a year of hearing how awesome she was (mostly from you) that was what finally made me realize the extent of her awesomeness and go read everything I could find.
