My Place in the Universe

I work in an animation studio – on a 2D project, no less – and have not drawn all day.

Wait a minute ... how does this work, again?

ARGH! THEY TOTALLY MOVED UP THE US RELEASE DATE FOR THUD! I TEAR MYSELF APART IN FRUSTRATED ENVY! Three days was OK, but three WEEKS?!

Tealin: go on half.com. They are selling ARCs (Advanced Reading Copies) right now.

Whoops, never mind. Only the American copy is sold there.

You know what is also not fair? My roommate knows someone who works at HarperCollins and tried to get an ARC and he said they don't have them up here – this is the benefit of living in a country where Mr Pratchett isn't so popular. Marketing.

I'll just have to be patient. I was good at that until this devious little trick...

Urgh! I talked to someone who read it, and she said it was his best ever. I so badly want that book!
