(no subject)

Since I have been a bad, bad absent fan/forum-admin lately...

Get Parrish. Seriously. I'm not kidding. Get Mira too. And soon, you have to get Tara - there is no excuse. Well, unless you don't like post-apocalyptic spec-fic, space operas or chick-crime-lit. And even then, I'm gonna sulk until you try it. XD

It's not something I've blogged about for ages, but I run the official forum for Marianne de Pierres a.k.a Marianne Delacourt, speculative-fiction author extraordinaire... Well, to tell the truth, I created a LJ community (now dead), which then became a forum, which then became the official forum. Okay, it's a very quiet forum, but that's cause she's underappreciated, damnit!

We also have guest authors from time to time (in the past, we've had Kelley Armstrong, Rachel Caine, Anne Bishop, Richard Morgan, Justina Robson... and who knows who's coming next?), and it's always cool to be able to pick a published writer's brain. Getting to talk to Kelley Armstrong was the second-most-squeeworthy book-fangirl event of my life, after being contacted by Marianne... :D

Anyway, yeah. Leaving this as a public entry so all random journal-clickers can see the site-widget. NOW GO BUY THE BOOKS! *cracks whip*
