*g* In the tradition of spacing out the announcement until everyone is sick of the pause… I may be feeling a little punch drunk because I got up at 4.30 this morning in order to go and morris dance infront of the doors of Ely Cathedral while the dawn was breaking this fine May Day…
I’ve had two lovely reviews for False Colors this week. This one from nos4a2no9 http://nos4a2no9.livejournal.com/269348.html who says (among other things, including a very flattering comparison of False Colors and Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade): False Colors was just as thoughtful and emotionally wrenching as Gabaldon’s second Lord John book (which, um, destroyed…
