Derek asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

I live in the Twin Cities area, fortunately close to you. Do you have a schedule of public appearances where I could shake your hand and thank you in person for your wonderful work?

Lois McMaster Bujold I'm going to have a couple of things coming up in mid-March in honor of "Penric and the Shaman", at Dreamhaven and Uncle Hugo's respectively. I'll be putting the details up on my blog sometime in the next few days, when they are all firmed up.

I've also committed to Convergence, the July 4th-ish (6th - 9th) big con this summer.

We'll have to see about the hand; I'm slated for some surgery on it in late March. We might just have to wave at each other. (-:

Ta, Lois.

Srjanssen asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Working my way through my second read of the "Hallowed Hunt" and find myself frequently rereading passages. Your explorations of religious and magical themes are unique. Were there any particular factors that turned your imagination in that direction, or have those themes always lurked in the background? By the way, have you run into the novels of Charles A Williams?

Christine

Christine asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

? Wanted to send you a note to say how much I have enjoyed the Vorkosigan saga. My husband introduced me to Shards of Honor, and I fell in love with your writing style and the characters. We just got a new puppy this weekend and named him Ivan. My husband wanted to be able to yell, "That idiot Ivan!" when the dog does something. Thought it was a perfect name for a lovable pup that will inevitably become a scapegoat.
