Lots of news since last I posted!
--Happy news! Kitsune Books, a speculative literary publisher out of Florida, has agreed to publish my next book, "She Returns to the Floating World," a book about girls who turn into foxes, women who disappear, and heroines in anime.
--Sad news: the new Futurama episodes have been...not so great. Although I saw they had a female writer on one of the episodes. Way to let a girl in the room, Futurama! On the other hand, way too much "fan service" involving Leela and Amy. Maybe those censors were realllly important to the quality of Futurama jokes.
--In between: New spy-girl series "Covert Affairs" is a complete ripoff of Alias, right down to Piper's Sydney Bristow-esque voice inflections and facial expressions. Yet, fun to watch - thanks, USA, for providing an empowered heroine that none of the major networks can manage.

I'm glad I'm not the only viewer who caught the Sydney Bristow-ness of Annie Walker. This new show half makes me wonder if "Alias" was just ahead of its time or if a girl who could kick your ass and rock a blue vinyl dress was just that much too much for stuffy old men in network studio suits.
...can we get Annie Walker a blue vinyl dress?
