I read it as soon as you posted it but neglected to scroll down on this page to see the opportunity for comments. I have been reading your blog for many months now, and your reviews of literary fiction are truly excellent. Thank you for taking the time to write about --and engage with-- serious fiction in such a thoughtful way. (As an aside, I'm pleased to tell you that the paperback of Wherever You Go was just released this week.)

I love the quilts you have made, amazing, love how your backing is always interesting. I have been roaming through your site for the last 2 hours and I just can't get enough. I showed my sister in law who is visiting from Kansas and she is hooked too. So glad I got to meet you and find this wonderful place to lose myself. Happy Quilting!! Carol Hi Wendy,

I am a book publicist (independent) and I work with many discerning literary publishers, right now I have some good fiction; and a lovely memoir -- all authors that deserve some good attention. I work frequently with Gilion Dumas and she's mentioned you to me frequently. Might I send you some books? Books not galleys, right? I was touched by your site and seeing that you lost Caribou and Argus so close together, same happened to us, Mingus full golden passed away in July of 2009 and Jasper not a full golden, passed away almost six months to the day. And we are just now considering a new fur member of the family. Anyway, back to books, if it's ok to send please let me know your mailing address. All the best, Mary Bisbee-Beek Wendy, hi!

I realize that you do not review science fiction or fantasy (for which Tor is predominantly known) however, our Forge side has a large contingent of mystery, thriller and nonfiction books that might interest you. (After seeing your website, I really hoped you would be interested in some of our stuff, because I love your focus on the role of "fur children" in reading--my own fur child, a 100lb Lacquer black German Shepherd, is an essential component to my reading process, even if he is jealous of books taking my attention for so long. I must also add here that Caribou was a beautiful creature, and I am deeply sorry for your loss. It is hard to lose any dog, but a working companion is even harder). If you are interested in getting review copies of our mysteries and/or nonfiction books, please e-mail me directly with your full contact information (and what genres you would like) so that we can get review copies to you.

I don't do a lot of scientific reading, so this doesn't sound like something I could help you with...BUT if I am wrong in my assumption, you can always drop me an email at caribousmom (at) gmail (dot) com and we can talk some more :) Say hi to Denise for me :) Hi Robert, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you – your comment found its way into my spam folder and I just recently discovered it.
