I figure people get enough depressing stuff in the news everyday. I wanted do write something that people could enjoy, laugh at, and have fun reading.Lisa Shearinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01528568490302313296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941554619662322102.post-45029538519663963922008-04-14T22:54:00.000-04:002008-04-14T22:54:00.000-04:00Congradulations Lisa!! :) I'm sending "Lisa's going to WIN" vibes your way.Judi - Sidhehttp://sidhevicious.bravejournal.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941554619662322102.post-67774748092804752172008-04-14T22:06:00.000-04:002008-04-14T22:06:00.000-04:00I wonder if a lot of Fantasy fans are like me - absolutely sick of Dark & Gritty. This is why I also liked GOBLIN QUEST by Jim C. Hines.<BR/><BR/>OUTBACK STARS is on my To-Be-Read list too, but I can't remember if Tor is sending it to me or not. I don't keep track of those things.Kimber Anhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03982239712083114488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941554619662322102.post-28923248957532336502008-04-14T21:02:00.000-04:002008-04-14T21:02:00.000-04:00Tia, that's one of the things that makes this nomination so incredibly special -- I never thought I wrote the kind of books that would get nominated for awards like the Compton Crook. <BR/><BR/>Yes, it sounds like I have a lot of fans in Baltimore. Yea!Lisa Shearinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01528568490302313296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941554619662322102.post-3840606456677970142008-04-14T20:51:00.000-04:002008-04-14T20:51:00.000-04:00I wanted to elaborate on why I was so glad to see your novel nominated. Of the five novels, I've only read yours and Sandra's (although The Name of the Wind is on my To Buy list). Yours is a humorous novel, and very often, they don't seem to be nominated for awards. Sandra's novel has its comic moments as well, but it is not intended to be a humorous novel.<BR/><BR/>So again, give yourself a little pat on the back. Sounds like you have some fans in Baltimore.Tia Nevitthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05489109929908389257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-941554619662322102.post-10779304143843514642008-04-14T16:00:00.000-04:002008-04-14T16:00:00.000-04:00Thank you, Kimber An.
