I'm a bookseller up here (at Borders) and I'm doing my best to push your books cause I think they are excellent (even though bugs kinda creep me out :) If you are ever in the area stop by and sign stock even. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to the next book, Rebecca Oh, I wish you were coming up to Glasgow.

I might read the first one again just to ensure I'm up to speed. Death Ray, eh? I'd love to read your article, but don't know how to get hold of a copy. The last time I saw one in the shops was early last year. To be honest, I thought it had folded. See you on the 7th! Also very much looking forward to the new book.

I think the derivation probably also partakes of the old D&D spell classification of abjuration. Learn something new every day :) You're absolutely correct.

LARPers *always* get that one wrong! I think it descends from an original Treasure Trap spell-vocal via Labyrinth. ;-) Sorry Adrian! It's "adjure" not "abjure"…

I live in Brazil, and my school classes wil begin next week, and I must say that I'm even looking forward to it, for the sooner it begins the sooner Dragonfly is released and the sooner can I wait two to three weeks until amazon delivers it here. Yay! Seriously now, I hope the second book is even better than the first one, which I believe it will be, and that you sell enough to a) live very well without another job and b) write/publish more shadows of the apt novels (good ones, not just a some sequels made to sell, without any of the marvellous and appealing characteristics the original novels had, such as worldbuilding, beautiful fighting description and some concepts which are very tasty food for thought). I think I'm sort of ranting because my head feels light headed... I've gotten a little chubbier lately and was exercising after three months without doing any serious physical exercise. My body was not as fit as it used to be... Oh, there I go again... Have a very self-rewarding and sucessful writing career! P.S. Really wish I could meet you and have my book signed, probably with an "I'm a big fan" stupid smile on my face... By the way, I have no idea what you look like, but I have to say you look sort of insect-ish and have a beard in my mind... I'm really looking forward to Dragonfly.
