Kick ass! Justina Robson's made the finalist list!!! *does a little dance*

I will assume that she is a good read since it makes you dance. I do have to say she has the best title out of all of the finalists.

I also liked the title of her essay "World of Warcraft: Timesink of the Gods."

I admit I didn't understand a lot of her universe--very very far future, with worlds built from programs--but her characters! Ah! Wonderful. I'll be reading more of her stuff when I have the time. Har har.

Eeks, you misspelled "Rainbows End"... Remember the chapter entitled "The Missing Apostrophe"?

You're right! I wish I could fix it from home, but KU has seen fit to misconfigure the FTP servers....

At least I've read some of them. Almost done with Glasshouse.
