SF Small Press Arrival Day

Guess what day it is!








It's SF Small Press Arrival Day! *







(*Not a real day.)



How do you feel about that?









Okay. Loki gets Shimmer, because he called it and there are rules, people!









Thor takes LCRW because she is mighty and demands it to be so!









And I'll start with Apex!








But wait! Just what the hell is going on here?









Two copies of Apex #11?








D'oh!








I only have two cats, people!







Excess copies should be going to new subscribers, not me! Because they only need seven more subscribers this month and they can raise their payrates! Hmm. Don't know what made me think of that just now. Anyway, what am I going to do with two copies (FWIW I did offer to send one back)?








If only I could give one away! Oh, wait a minute!






I can! Sweet nectar of being able to do things, I drink thee!



Take a bow, Thor!









Or a bath. Baths are cool, too. Whatever.



To get my extra copy of Apex # 11 (which, incidentally, goes up to... naah, too obvious), go read about their Subscription Drive and come back here and be the first to post a comment on LiveJournal. Thassit. No purchase/subscription necessary or test to make sure you've read it or anything. This is the honor system, people, and I'm not going to send my extra copy to a cheater, except on accident. Like how they sent it to me.



No animals were hurt during the making of this journal entry.








Loki and Thor dismiss all rumors about sharing a trailer on the set. They're just good friends and would appreciate it if you respected their privacy. Thanks!

  Reminds me a bit of Eric Conveys an Emotion.
  
  By the way, the beard is a good look.

    Wow, Eric is impressive. I'll have to come up with an interesting challenge for him.
    
    The beard stays for at least another week or so. I'm supposed to do a cameo in a film I wrote, but the shoot date keeps getting pushed back. It's stopped itching, so I've stopped complaining about the pushing back.

    Really? They do so much adventuring, I rarely have time to catch the camera.
    
    They can open doors now. Seriously. We've taken the nobs off the gas stove, just in case.

      I have this image of your neighbors coming to you and saying, "It's your cats' fault I can't finish my knitting! They sneaked out of your house, broke into my home, and stole my ball of yarn!"

        We're not quite there yet. FWIW the further adventures of Thor and Loki can be found here:

    Thanks, Mary!
    
    ....and speaking of trying to make you laugh, are my emails to you showing up? (10/25 with a followup 11/28, both to your gmail address)

  This post made me laugh, Alex. The cats are so cute. If you haven't already, ever consider featuring them in shorts a la Mr Safety's 'Mean Kitty Song'?

    No video camera. And if I had one, they'd eat it.

  It's the two-box cat set that does it for me! That one should join the pantheon of public domain cat pictures forever!

    At this point, I haven't even decided to keep the hair on my head, but I'll consider it. Thanks.
