Shoot the water, baby, I've been found
1. The plumber came and we have a working sink!
2. My forthcoming collection now has a formal cover, because it now has ARCs, because it is coming out in August:

Art by D.G. Smith, design by Alex Jeffers. The jacket photograph (not visible) was taken by Rob Noyes, the day we walked the bridges. If anyone has suggestions on where to send ARCs beyond the usual suspects, I will take them. I have not had a short story collection to promote in thirteen years.

We have no idea! It was not explained to us! The faucet was "no good."
You should send me an ARC, my vast network of resources...doesn’t exist, don’t do that, it would get you nothing, terrible idea.
I mean, I would still like to know what you think of the stories when they come out.
But maybe message the Lady Business blog right here on DW? They do spec short fiction reviews and have a big enough audience to get a Hugo nod for best fanzine last year?
Thank you! That is exactly the sort of thing I should know about and do not! I have written to them.

Well, if they won’t tell me, I’ll just have to carry on assuming that faucets work because the tiny gnome civilization in them have bucket brigades, and all your gnomes died.
