Noble Pen Meeting

January 7th, 2010
Happy Chef, 1906 Blairs Ferry Rd NE, Cedar Rapids

Private balls were never more than middling amusements for spinsters, and Miss Tarabotti was not the kind of spinster who could garner even that much pleasure from the event. To put the pudding in the puff; she had retreated to the library, her favorite sanctuary in any house, only to happen upon an unexpected vampire.
–Gail Carriger, Soulless

George is publishing music reviews on his website.

Ian is still being courted by the textbook company. Their editor sent him a naked picture of Stephen Hawking.

I received two rejections on my query letter and prevented a robot uprising.

Ciuin started a new book by a favorite author and found it to say some nasty things about gypsies. She was last seen heading to that author’s home with a quart of Jack Daniels and a sharp stick.
