    1) "Sportsball" If there was a word I could banish into the depths of Hell...*
    2) I didn't realize there was such a divide between Star Wars and Sports.**

    *I can think of another word, but there's a lot of history with that one. And I'd have to learn new lyrics to Jay Z' oeuvre "99 Problems"
    **Honestly surprised. I discussed the end of the EU with the same guy who sadistically laughed in my face after this.That's my Alderaan.

    The point stands for fans of just about anything, I'd imagine. Sports, video games, comics, literature, Star Wars, Star Trek, cooking, knitting: we're all clans of Scottish highlanders and just about as friendly toward our neighbors.

    Interesting, Jason Fry is one of my favorite reference book authors. In fact he wrote my favorite reference book The Complete Atlas next to Year by Year Visual Chronicle.

    I wonder if this story is going to have a Battle of Britain feel; something like this:



    "Yes, Admiral. Give me a squadron of X-Wings!"

    Paperback is scheduled for Tuesday, but I can't even find it on the kindle store. What's with that? Hopefully it'll be visible after release, but usually you can preorder books...

    Just searched for it directly from my Kindle and couldn't find it either. That is weird.

    I'm like 25 pages in. If I stopped for a week now (yes, a week) I might as well start it over again.

    EDIT: NVM I was going to ask a question about the kindle version, but I'll probably get the physical copy.

    Still no sign of the new Servants of the Empire book in the iBook store. Is there a delay on the ebook version for some reason? Has anyone seen it on the kindle/nook/Google play store?

    It's not on the kindle store either. I may end up just ordering the physical version but I'm not too happy about that.

    Sorry about the ebook thing, folks -- though IIRC there was a similar short delay with Edge of the Galaxy? I just write 'em, I leave the distribution to others.

    Excited to have this one out -- constructing a narrative around/within the show was an intriguing writing challenge. I don't know exact dates, but title/cover for the third book in the series should hit fairly soon.

    Was there? I remember being to preorder it at least, even if it did come out later. Not sure. It's very strange.

    Anybody you can bug to get the ebook thing straightened out? I'd really like to give you my business. :p
