If you feel like reading about my obsessions

or at least the ones I'm willing to admit publicly, head on over to Poe's Deadly Daughters, where an interview/guest blog with me is now live. I met some of those nice folks at the World Fantasy Con in Calgary, and when they invited me, I immediately agreed. The obsession question made me think a great deal, so the experience was a good and informative one for me. The Web Weasel has declared it perhaps the best interview yet with me; you'll have to be your own judge.

It snowed and sleeted last night and into today, so we are housebound. We have power and plenty of food and connectivity, so I consider our fate to be a lovely one. I took advantage of it to crash and spend an inordinate amount of time in bed. Though I am still fatigued enough that I could crawl back into the sack and immediately fall asleep, the extra sleep certainly made me feel better.

I'd post pictures of the lovely snow, but I didn't get outside until after dark, so you'll have to trust me when I say that it's quite pretty and rather rare for our area.

If this harsh weather is affecting you, I hope your situation is as comfortable as ours.

we're happily housebound as well - spent the day sledding with friends and their kids in the neighborhood. it's a half-mile, top to bottom, and we found that the flexible flyer could take us all the way down in one glorious two-minute-long ride! we ended up having dinner with friends who let us practice our new dessert obsession - grand marnier souffle - on them. glad to hear that you and your family are also warm and happy, and you're getting some extra sleep!

Desserts and snow are a natural combination!
