"the sandwich-board method of book production"

[theholyinnocent]

In other words, some humble pimpage thrown your way: A very good friend of mine (we went to college together) is getting her novel published by an indie press next year. She has been working on this book for a long time, and she is a very good writer indeed (and a better poet than me, that's for sure). So if you're interested in a classic tale of "love, lust, and lyricism" (ok, it's not of the queer variety, but still), here's her website

And hopefully this bit of PR (plus letting her stay at our apartment in a couple weeks) means I won't have to pay for the book!

Hope your friend does well! You are sweet for spreading the love, I mean, the lust.

Good on you, THI. I see your friend is a fan of John Banville and salamander hands. Me too! Well, any bit of any amphibian I enjoy. I was out yesterday at a sort-of family do, and an old friend of my parents said to me "Do you still have the black things?" She was referring to the axolotls I kept when I was, you know, a teenager. So two salamander references in 24 hours: that's enjoyable. Good luck to her and congratulations.
