Here I Am

[ellenkushner]

Light has finally dawned over Marble Head, as I realize that it is easier to post Cool New Things that have Drawn My Attention here in a bloggish sort of way than to try and keep putting them up on my website.

So I'll indulge myself with news of my creative & publishing activities (all the "To Come" stuff, anyway - the Official Appearances, existing performances etc. can all be found at

http://www.sff.net/people/KushnerSherman/kushner/

where they are meticulously updated), plus stray comments on music, film, books & trenchant sayings that I hope will be of interest to anyone who likes the rather sprawling and eclectic Ellenverse that includes the novel Swordspoint http://www.sff.net/people/KushnerSherman/kushner/swordspoint.html (check out the new page - complete with falling snow! - by Theo Black), the public radio show Sound & Spirit http://www.wgbh.org/wgbh/pages/pri/spirit/, and so much in between.

I haven't spent much time on LiveJournal, so am not familiar with the Customs of the Country; but that's all right, I'm used to that, and I won't mind if you don't.

Comments

Many welcomes . . . .

And, oh, gosh, now I've got stage fright! all these notables, warm and witty and accomplished . . . . Well, it won't last (the stage fright, not, I hope, the welcome) - I am usually the one jumping up on stage shouting "Look me! Look me!" [brief hiatus while I try to find if that oft-used phrase in our household really is from one of the Alex Panshin "Anthony Villiers" books - failed to confirm, but I think it is], and the more the merrier.

So, thank you. As I am always running all over the place, both literally and figuratively, and am tremendously distractable withal, I may not be the most active participant in community activities, but it is awfully good to be here with you.
