Linkage time, since I'm up at the Ref desk now and nobody needs ref.


Via Bookslut:

Article on authors offering free ebooks.

"People always seem shocked that musicians would have sex," Tindall said. "I mean, where do little musicians come from?" Sordid, steamy kiss-and-tell about someone who pretty much slept ehr way through the classical music world. I am a bad person; I want to read it. XD

Part-time reference: I rotate in 4 or 5 hours a week, and otherwise I'm down in my little box in Systems. XD

Cool. I have just downloaded Charlie Stross's fixup Accelerando, which includes the terrific story "Lobsters", and also 3 of Cory Doctorow's books!

I'll have to download Stross' book - I enjoy his posts when I go lurk on rec.arts.sf.composition, but I havne't read anything of his yet.

Ah, nice, more chat about writing. XD I have all sorts of How to Write books and essays on writing because I really like reading about writing, and a lot of my LJ friends are there to feed into that obsession. XD

Writers etc on LJ

Snickeringly funny is realizing that Caroline Stevermer is on your friendslist and you're on hers, and have been for some time, and you didn't realize who it was. XD

I can only assume that when Tindall says "musicians" she means "classical musicians." As far as I can tell, the common assumption about popular musicians is that they're all getting tail every night.

Yeah, that's what she's referring to. But if we read her tell-all, apparnetly we find that they're getting just as much. XD
