Yup. It's me. Still alive. Still working like a mofo. Books
are really starting to shape up. I think people are going
to like our lineup (then again, I always do), and I think
it's going to come out very well done. Rosh Hashana is
still our ETA for the first batch.

There's a wonderful interview with Neil Gaiman over at
a lovevly site I haven't encountered before called "Foodporn".
Mostly about food, but also about life and fiction. Link via
the Gaiman journal, natch.

Yes, I'm still alive. Got a bit caught up with work and life
and everything that goes into buying an apartment. But
here I am, with a link to a wonderful little essay on Terry
Pratchett and THE AMAZING MAURICE AND HIS
EDUCATED RODENTS and the fact that it won the Carnegie
medal. Link via the essay's author, a fella by the name of Neil
Gaiman.

I haven't been very active online lately, due to the
fact that so-called "real life" has taken up way too
much of my time lately. However, two posts over
at Fisheye caused me to go a bit ballistic twice
in one night. The first was caused by a poster's
statement that she hadn't read any of the Harry
Potter books because "anything that popular
can't possibly be good". The second was a
spurred by a complaint about the about the
"overuse" of the line "with great power comes
great responsibility" in the Spiderman movie
(which I really enjoyed, btw). Both posts are
in Hebrew.
