It was very generous of you to share your time and thoughts with us, and I'm sure my fellow workshoppers got as much out of it as I did.<br /><br />~BarbaraBarbara A.

I think we need one!)<br /><br />By the way, are you entirely sure that orcs don't belong to country clubs? I thought I read somewhere that Fuld and Skilling have orc blood in them, and they probably would have belonged to country clubs. But then again, sometimes the newspapers get the facts wrong when they're covering the orc beat.<br /><br />best<br />SonjaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12465149536762876130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484180326012950400.post-53340324632258049752009-06-02T07:35:00.825-07:002009-06-02T07:35:00.825-07:00Ha!

I believe at one time, the group _was_ called something like "The Science Fiction, Fantasy, Dark Fiction &/or Horror Universal Dominance Collaborative and Workshop" -- credit Vash for that -- but at this point we just call ourselves, uh, the name of our mailing list.<br /><br />Thank you very much for coming to share your thoughts, insight, and experience with us. We are very lucky to have such marvelous and prominent SF writers in Philly (I think the New Yorkers sometimes get confused about how this can be), and we benefit enormously from your generosity when you're willing to make the time to spend an afternoon with us. Thank you again!<br /><br />- Susannah (second from the right in front)Susannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872125116111074253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484180326012950400.post-22370423645647376522009-06-01T19:29:41.522-07:002009-06-01T19:29:41.522-07:00Thank you so much for visiting us and sharing your...Thank you so much for visiting us and sharing your dynamic presence and insight with our group! Your visit was a true delight, and I feel very inspired now as I jump in for my next story. (I'm totally writing a hard sf story with spaceships next) You were incredibly generous with your time and energy and I really appreciated your thoughts on stereotypes, developing non-humans, and your insight into the field. <br /><br />Again, thank you and best of success in your future work and travels. <br /><br />Hugs from Vash (the girl with the braids)Vashti Bandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14214295445748264408noreply@blogger.com
