Heh. I was about to start a thread on this. Posted by Jay (Member # 5786) on :
Fun! The Ender story is Peter Wiggin as a young man. That should be fun.

I just read "Tabloid Reporter to the Stars."
I have a bit of a cold and I've been coughing a lot lately; the revelation at the end had me laughing for nearly five minutes, before I started coughing up blood. I loved the story, but now I need to clean my carpet.

Eric James Stone is a wonderful writer. Posted by Lord Of All Fools (Member # 3841) on :
'Wisteria' is a wonderfully, skillfully told tale.
I'm absolutely loving this issue. Plus, more artwork from Jin Han! Huzzah!
I'm such a fanboy.

Sorry to hear that you're feeling sick. Even knowing that there was a twist coming at the end of the story, I cracked up when I read it too.

Sara Ellis is a wonderful writer, but why are her columns in an sf magazine?
Posted by Verloren (Member # 9771) on :
Yeah for Eric James Stone!
I laughed out loud at the ending too (which was not the smartest thing to do since I was supposed to be busy at work rather than taking a little "break").
Eric lives in the same little city that I do, and I even had a short email exchange with him about Writing Groups in my area. Very exciting to have contact with a celebrity (not as exciting as OSC, but still up there for this lowly writer).

The Stone story is the only one I've read so far and it was great. I would have bought the magazine just for that one story.
Posted by Lord Of All Fools (Member # 3841) on :
I roomed with Eric for a week in Seattle at the Writers of the Future contest.
He is intelligent, and lots of fun. He's also much more productive than I am. And I'll never forgive him for that.

Yay! Thanks for the link, Jay.
Take care of yourself, dantesparadigm -- sounds nasty. Posted by EricJamesStone (Member # 5938) on :
I'm really gratified by the response to my story. I'm glad people like it.

Good stuff

You may not have noticed, but Sara's Ellis's columns are no longer coming out in said SF magazine. Now they are just archived.
Posted by Lord Of All Fools (Member # 3841) on :
I wondered, PG.
I miss new columns from her. Do you know where I might find some more of her fantastic writing?
Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :
Maybe she'll post on this very forum.
Posted by Lord Of All Fools (Member # 3841) on :
Maybe in this very thread.
Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :
Crazy talk!
Posted by Lord Of All Fools (Member # 3841) on :
I know.
Check the username, though...
Posted by Storm Saxon (Member # 3101) on :
*laughs* I've known as soon as Porcelain Girl posted kind of huffily and I looked at her profile.

Yeah, I was casting about for the right word to use. Perhaps huffy was too strong of a word, but your post did make me think, wait a second, is she...? She is!
Sorry, too, if I gave the impression that I thought you were hiding your name or something. I didn't think that.
