I just got hold of Jeff&#8217;s own The Third Bear yesterday, and it is next on my list after I fight through the last thirty pages of Titus Alone.]]></description>

		<title>A Little More Fixed Stars Press</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s coming slowly, the Fixed Stars press, but Mike Meginnis put in a good word on the Uncanny Valley blog.  (This good word is actually from a week and a half ago, but I was so absorbed with Birkensnake that I forgot to google myself for a long time.)

Uncanny Valley is a promising new [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wikipedia Resolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Birkensnake article has been deleted from Wikipedia, which is something of a relief to me.  Why did it make me uncomfortable?  I don&#8217;t know, part of some hazy general paranoia related to being observed.  It leaves behind a long and rancorous deletion debate that ends with the person who originally wrote [...]]]></description>

		<title>Birkensnake 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is done.  We had help from many people, especially Alec Thibodeau, who lent us his screen-printing studio and expertise, and Michelle Carriger, who got us into the Brown Book Arts Studio at several key moments.



As usual, electronic versions are available free in various formats, and print copies cost $4 each.  The cover [...]]]></description>

		<title>Birkensnake on Wikipedia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Someone (I don&#8217;t know who) wrote a Wikipedia page for Birkensnake.  People are on there now discussing whether or not to delete the article because its subject is not significant.  I don&#8217;t know who any of these people are.  My own opinion is that Birkensnake is not significant &#8212; what is? &#8212; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Interview at Rain Taxi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jedediah Berry interviewed me about The Fixed Stars for Rain Taxi.  Whether or not I wrote anything interesting in this particular interview, it&#8217;s always a good idea to have a look at Rain Taxi now and then; maybe this can be your excuse.]]></description>

		<title>Convulsion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I was sitting here in my cottage late at night and I heard this clicking under the window on the other side of the room.  Not very loud, but definitely a clicking, like from one of those metal clicky toys &#8212; is there a name for those toys? they&#8217;re basically giant bottlecaps in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Malta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m back home from teaching a two-week summer class at Brown &#8212; high-school students writing fantasy and science fiction. It&#8217;s a weird two weeks, exciting in many ways but also exhausting.

I&#8217;ve been studying Modern Greek with Rosetta Stone &#8212; I mean Ancient Greek for a few years with books and such, but then only recently [...]]]></description>
