At one point Nomi was listed as being on the "My Fandom's Not Dead Yet" panel that I was moderating, but I just now checked and that's disappeared from Zambia entirely. :( Phooey, I thought that one would be fun.

Man, I feel like I'm going to have convention withdrawals this year, so few will I be able to get to.

Wow. I'm feeling very upset that I will be missing Arisia. Some of the panels look quite cool.

I'll tell Larry Smith -- he's been having trouble getting copies of your book from the publisher, and I'd hoped to buy one from him today at GAFilk. He wanted to talk to you, but had assumed you'd not be at Arisia.

(Also, Borders doesn't carry it either, which I think a grave oversight.)

The Borders in downtown Boston is carrying it, so it's not like they haven't heard of it. They ought to be able to get it from their distributor. (As it is, Borders has been having their own problems and they're not stocking all the kinds of books they used to.)

I know that Borders doesn't stock anything, but the nice man at the store couldn't find it in the database, and I double checked to make sure I was spelling everything correctly. I saw that he was typing correctly. Do Boston Borders communicate with NYC Borders?

That's odd. They should be able to find it listed with Ingram, one of their main distributors.

Okay, I'll try to tell them when we get back to NYC.
