A note on using the Q&A in work-around attempts to send me private messages... (?)
Lois McMaster Bujold
Short request is, Don't, but more helpfully, any Goodreads member whom I have friended can use the GR private messaging system to send email within the system. The trick, it turns out, is that one must have been friended to make the address box populate. This isn't hard to achieve, since I friend pretty much anyone who asks, there being too many to vet.
If you feel you must use the Q&A for this off-label purpose, please make it clear the message is not meant to be publicly posted, and be aware I have no way of answering.

I'm interested in hearing about your early career if that's okay. :) What lessons have you learned about the business and the craft of writing that you wished you had known in the beginning? Do you write by hand, do you type, do you use dictation technology or a bit of all three? I just began reading the Vorkosigan Saga for the first time. I am now reading over 4 hours a day. Haha! Thank you for your work. :)

Lois McMaster Bujold:
On your book tour for Cryoburn (I think), you did a reading from something you were working on at the time. It involved Enrique and the edges of the radioactive zones near Vorkosigan Vashnoi. I haven't encountered this snippet, or anything even remotely like it, in anything you've published since. Did anything ever come of that story? Is it likely to? (Please say yes!)
