Vonda N McIntyre: pointing out the pitfalls*

[desperance]

When I first joined Book View Cafe, Sarah Zettel told me - quite casually, as though it were not in and of itself worldshaking - that Vonda N McIntyre would be my mentor, my sheepdog, my Speaker to Joomla and general hand-holder through the perplexities of BVC. Vonda N McIntyre, people. Who has always been one of my definitions of What Science Fiction Is.

So, yeah. Vonda sends me e-mails. (I said this, or something like it, to Sarah one time; she said, "How do you think I feel? Ursula sends me e-mails...")

Anyway: fanboy squee registered; move on.

Now y'all get to be almost as lucky as I am. Vonda has written a guide to some of the difficulties of SF/F, and how to handle them. It's published by BVC as an e-book, it's DRM-free like all our books, and it's a bare $2.99. You can order it here.

*Now I am earwormed with "Measuring the Marigolds". What have I done to deserve this?
