Today is a happy day for me, bookwise. There is a new Tanya Huff book out, called Smoke and Shadows. It’s a bit of a spin-off from her Blood series. And Henry, who was only supposed to make a cameo, ended up with a bigger role. Not that that would have mattered to me. It could be about anything, if Tanya Huff wrote it, I’d read it. I wonder why there are not tons of websites out there, in her honor. How can you not love someone who, when asked in interview her thoughts on this year’s Stanley Cup replied that, as non-Canadian as it sounds, she didn’t watch much hockey because “I’m afraid it would cut into the time I spend memorizing my Firefly DVDs and sending mental messages to Joss Whedon: “You want me on your writing staff…” ”
I hope Joss is listening. Personally, I am sending Tanya Huff mental messages that read “you really do have more Keeper stories to tell. many many more… quit fighting it! Let them out!”
