Liaden Read Along

For those interested in the Liaden read-along, commentary on the first two chapters is now live, here.

The intro page is here

Please accept this in the spirit of a first attempt, while we work together toward a format that’s fun for everybody involved.

To be perfectly honest, I’m reading a lot faster than this and I want to read at my usual rate, as if (as close to “as if” as it’s possible for me to be) I’m reading a book for enjoyment. I’m making some notes, but not very detailed ones. So! the chapter-by-chapter approach may not work for me, which ultimately means that it won’t work for you.

I would therefore appreciate input on what would be most fun for participants who are not me.

Thanks for your help — and enjoy!

Attention Liaden Read-Alongers!

Liaden Read-Along Folk!

Here’s the link for the Agent of Change Read-Along (which will start in January), so you can bookmark it

If you get lost, all you have to do is look on the menu on the left side, and you’ll see, right at the top “Liaden Read-Along” with a down-arrow. Click the down-arrow and you’ll see “Agent of Change Intro.” Click that and you’ll be at the top of the discussion.

Reading does not start here at the Confusion Factory until January. What’s up there right now is an intro, with information from the story card, the novel’s tag line, About The Author blurb, and a short history of how the novel got published.

Feel free to share the news of the Read-Along with friends, but be sure to let them know that there will be spoilers.

Tuesday updatery

Tali wants everybody to know that I was properly supervised this morning as I wrote:

Tuesday. I have new glasses. Except for a change in color — the old glasses were blue, these are a silvery pink — they look pretty much the same. Titanium frames. The prescription pulls the right eye into line, as it continues its descent back into nearsightedness.

Regarding the read-along — thanks to everyone who chimed in to say that their idea of reading along matched mine, and we will hope that those who were afraid they’d miss something unless recorded due to their work schedules and whatnot are now relieved to know that we’re text-based, and they can check in whenever they have time.

So! People of the Read-Along, I ask your input. Do you prefer order or chaos? Which is to say, shall we commit to reading, eh, 50 pages a week, and look for an update on Monday afternoon? Or do you prefer that I just comment as I go along, and you’ll catch up with me?

Please state your preference in comments.
