We just got back from Powell’s, where we heard Ursula LeGuin and a man named Margaret Killjoy talk about anarchism and science fiction. Unfortunately, Ursula LeGuin did not stay to sign books afterwards, because I would have loved to be able to shake her hand, and tell her how much I appreciate her always being there for me when I need her, but as she said, ‘when you’re over 80 there are some things that it gets harder to do,’ and I don’t begrudge her wanting to get home early. But oh man, I am so glad I got to go and hear her!

    That’s so cool! If you haven’t seen the posts on the Book View Cafe blog that I linked to on my LiveJournal yesterday, you should go look at them. She left a very funny comment on one.

    I did read that! If I could be even half as smart and feisty as Ursula LeGuin, I would die a happy woman.
