8 Aug 2008 - All the eights 8/8/08 today, so of course I had to release 8 books at 8 am (well, around 8 am - actually I released them between about 7.45 and 8.30 on my way to work, but releasing all 8 on the dot of 8 would have been a bit impractical): David Copperfield by Charles Dickens Surfacing by Margaret Atwood Father Brown by GK Chesterton On the Golden Porch by Tatyana Tolstaya The World at Night by Alan Furst The Magician's Wife by Brian Moore The Left Hand of the Electron by Isaac Asimov More from Martha by Jill Tweedie Yes, I know it's been a long time since I posted anything, and I really should do a big "what I've been doing in the last month or so" update, but I can't be bothered (after all, most of the reason I haven't posted for so long has been lack of inspiration, so if I wasn't inspired to write then, I'm even less inspired to try and remember what it was I didn't feel inspired to write about), so the short version is: work, study, releasing lots of books, and somewhere in there I managed to hit a couple of milestones: 3000 books registered, and 2500 released! If you really want a more detailed version, you could always go and inspect my bookshelf - looking through my recent releases is usually a good way of tracking everywhere I've been :-) What I will update you on though, are my recent catches, because there's been an excitingly large number of them, most producing new members: Firebird by Mercedes Lackey Never Too Rich by Judith Gould The Complete Plays by George Bernard Shaw Confessor by John Gardner The Best Short Stories of the Modern Age edited by Douglas Angus The Sunday Woman by Carlo Fruttero and Franco Lucentini Hancock by Freddie Hancock and David Nathan The Doll and the Kitten by Dare Wright Contact Two: Short Stories of the 1960s edited by FES Finn The Group by Mary McCarthy The Invisible Country by Paul J McAuley Disney adaptation of Robin Hood (a second-generation catch!) Of Time and Stars by Arthur C Clarke Duende by Jason Webster (from my world tour!) V by AC Crispin Worlds Apart by Nicola Thorne Master of the Game by Sidney Sheldon The Dragon at Noonday by Edith Pargeter Lily Makes a Living by Lolo Houbein I, Robot by Isaac Asimov Keeping Baby Safe by Debra Webb The Urmal in Space by Max Kruse (sorry, every time I see that title I read it as "The Urinal in Space"!) The Rule of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason The Rose Stone by Teresa Crane Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad The Quiet Professor by Betty Neels The Lost City of Zork by Robin Bailey Vet in Harness by James Herriot Letters from a Solo Survivor by Kathy Keay All that releasing is definitely paying off! ^ ^ 00 =+= v
