   As announced  earlier, this blog  will host an open  space once a  month to
   field questions and encourage discussion among  my readers, and this is the
   week. All  the standard rules  apply - no  profanity, no sales  pitches, no
   trolling, no rudeness, no long  screeds proclaiming the infallible truth of
   fill in the blank - but since there's no topic, nothing is off topic.

   Two  notes before  we get  going. First,  MYTHIC Magazine  - the  quarterly
   fantasy  and SF  mag  published by  Founders House,  the  same firm  that's
   bringing  out  the collected  Archdruid  Report  essays  - has  launched  a
   subscription drive  in the  hope of boosting  the pay it  can offer  to its
   writers. For obvious reasons, I'm a fan  of decent pay for writers **** and
   MYTHIC is shaping up  to be a first-rate venue for the  kind of fantasy and
   SF that breaks new ground,  rather than rehashing such done-to-death tropes
   as space travel. If you don't subscribe already, please consider doing so -
   and whether or not you're a subscriber, please spread the word! The details
   may be found here.

   Second, I'm  delighted to announce that  one of my readers  has completed a
   translation of my novel Star's Reach  into German. All that's needed now is
   a German-language publisher willing to get  it into print. If, dear reader,
   you happen  to work for  such a publisher,  let me know;  if you know  of a
   publisher you think would be interested,  ditto; if you know somebody, pass
   the word. Danke schon!

   With that said, have at it...
