I much appreciate the kind words. I hope you’ll read my collection when it comes out this fall… I’d love to know what you make of it.

I’m also a big fan of Neil Gaiman, and thought "October in the Chair" was a great one. I assume by now you’re long finished with SMOKE AND MIRRORS. The story that closes the book, "Snow, Glass, Apples" is just one of the best fantasy stories I’ve ever read. Period.

I enjoy checking out your blog qutie a bit. Your taste overlaps with my own pretty closely, but you read a lot more – I’m s-l-o-o-o-o-w – so you offer a great source of recommendations.

(That includes me.) Still, I’m puzzled by your use of the word ‘blasphemy’ in desbribing ‘The Problem of Susan’ — could you elaborate? (Er, that’s not a trick question. I’m really interested in where you feel the blasphemy was.)
