Motley Is A Fool's Uniform

Artfully dodged from dalmeny, who appears much more literate and erudite than I do when she does this meme. =9)

Books I am currently reading: The Right To Live by Dominic Covey and Skullduggery by Robin Laws. Blame! by Tsutomu Nihei. Only just finished Messiah by S Andrew Swann (Book 3 of the Apotheosis Trilogy), and just starting Dragon's Ring by Dave Freer.

Books I am writing: Runeclaw (which will not be released as there are too many clearance issues). Fate of Empires (which may be released into the wild if I feel it is worthy). Does translating The Black Book (and the rest of the French editions of Nephilim) into English count? An index of role-playing game systems (ie the resolution mechanics they use), constructed mainly for my own amusement and information. And very minor author credit on a project that I may not reveal at this time (if in fact, it is ever published).

Books I love most: The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle. Waiting For The Galactic Bus by Parke Godwin. Dogsbody by Diana Wynne Jones. A Night In The Lonesome October by Roger Zelazny. Bloodhype by Alan Dean Foster. Paladin of Souls by Lois McMaster Bujold. The Time Master Trilogy by Louise Cooper. The Sure Death of a Mouse by Dan Crawford. Subject to change without notice on all but the first.

The last book I received as a gift: Hmmmm. We are setting the wayback machine to extreme overdrive here. Probably Annalise by Nathan Paoletta.

The last book I gave as a gift:Apocalypse World by Vincent Baker and Steal Away Jordan by Julia Ellingboe.

The nearest book on my desk: I don't actually believe there is a book on my desk at this time. Although there are a lot of ebooks in my computer on my desk. Does that count? Without stretching though I can reach a copy of Dragon's Ring by Dave Freer, Messiah by S Andrew Swann, The Good, The Bad, and The Uncanny by Simon R Green, The Alchemy of Stone by Ekaterina Sedia, Loot The Burning House by Chuan Lin, The Blossoms Are Falling by Rich Soto and Luke Crane, The Vondish Ambassador by Lawrence Watt-Evans, Gilded Latten Bones by Glen Cook, Geist by Philippa Ballantine, Death of a Starship by Jay Lake, Game of Cages by Harry Connolly, and The Diamond Throne by David Eddings. If I were to stretch, the number of available books rises exponentially.

Last book I bought for myself: The last actual physical book I paid for would have been Agatha H and the Airship City by Phil and Kaja Foglio. The last physical book I received was Messiah by S Andrew Swann (from a preorder). The last ebook I bought was (checks logs for yesterday) Skyward Steel by Kevin Crawford.

If I was a summonable monster, what ritual would you use to summon me?

Excellent meme idea artfully dodged from drjon.

I'm not sure I can morally support any type of "-ism," so I'll just have to become a better posthuman instead. Unfortunately I don't quite have the nanotech and biotech base to implement The Eternal Masquerade or I'd be there already.

And most of my friends will agree that my current selections of paranoia would be hard to improve on (although I did stop collecting it after The Crash).

Save the Albedo universe? I just want to know what happens next. Although I must write that review of Albedo:Platinum Catalyst sometime. I think it artfully misses the entire point of telling stories at times of war, but probably makes a dandy set of wargame rules – if you make the assumption that the soldiers in the Albedo universe have actually managed to learn the intricacies of warfare in one minor war and decided that the US Combat Model is the best thing since sliced carrots (something which numerous Kangaroo exercises have disillusioned me that there is any truth in that statement).

traemery: I'm evil. And proud of it.

And only ten Girl Genius in a day!! I suppose I'll have to abandon my Time Viewer™ experiments then. And I was looking forward to seeing what was going to happen after [CENSORED BY THE TIME PATROL].

MUSIC MEME (Answered)

Put your music player on random.

– Post the first line from the first 32 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
– Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
– Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
– Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING

Good Luck.

Bold all of the following TV shows which you’ve ever seen 3 or more episodes of in your lifetime. Bold and Italicize a show if you’re positive you’ve seen every episode of it. If you want, add up to 3 additional shows (keep the list in alphabetical order).
