some things of more or less note

I really don't like Christmas music, except for some traditional carols, classical music interpretations, and some (very few) more modern entries. In fact, scrooge it, the things I like about this season are so not-xmas as to make me a bit of a grinch. If it could just be pretty lights, no religion, no worst shades of red and green together ever, lots of good food and drink and time spent w/loved ones, arts & crafts and thrift-gifting, and no treacly didactic stories, that would be excellent. Season of pretty lights, winter solstice, love & food & making things.

Here's a preview of cover detail for Three-Lobed Burning Eye's Annual, Vol 5, which will include my story "A Feather's Weight." 3LBE promises full cover and order details this Wednesday, Dec 1.

December 1 is, btw, the first day of Hannukah this year. Pretty lights! Latkes! mmmm...latkes... I will now retire to contemplate latkes and drool.
Oh, speaking of potatoes, one more link, 60 days eating nothing but potatoes, man lost weight, and his blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels went down. Of course, he didn't eat butter or sour cream either...
