While She Knits
Mar. 29th, 2013 08:34 pmFor those of you who may be new, While She Knits is a usually-on-a-Friday book discussion post where we talk about what we're reading while we wait (and wait and WAIT) for Megan's next book. It hasn't happened much lately, but with some recent activity here it would be great to get it going again.
idiosyncreant started the posts way back in 2007 and others picked it up later and no one has done it much lately. To be honest, I'm pretty much out of new ideas. Have ideas for future While She Knits posts? Message me or just post it yourself some Friday. Anyone chock full of ideas and interested in becoming the regular While She Knits poster? You can look at past posts and questions by clicking on the tags-->while she knits to get an idea of what would be involved. (There are also some terrific book recommendations there.)
I tried to remember how it got that knitting name and FINALLY found it. This is fun. :) emerald_happy had this discussion with MWT:
I sent MWT an email joking about Nahuseresh being Sophos in disguise. Unfortunately, I forgot to edit it and it ended up quoting/writing this:"Willow: "Dear Ms. Turner, There is no need to go to the trouble of writing a fourth Attolia book. We have everything figured out. Nahuseresh is Sophos in disguise, Irene is pregnant, and Heiro is going to run off to marry Dite. Also, the magus and Eddis are going to hook up. Sincerely, Sounis
Ah, seriously though, less than a week til paperback KoA! SQUEE! *cannot wait*"
I also forgot to edit out 'Willow'. I am so sorry, Willow. *offers copious amounts of ice cream* I sent MWT a hasty email when I'd realised saying:
ARGH. Um....i should have edited that a little before sending! we are looking forward to a 4th book! Please write one! Very very sorry. And that was also a cracky situation. um...we weren't being serious
Emerald *takes Checkers' idiot icon*
She replied:
(subject line: knit one, purl two.) nope! sorry! too late. You never get another book. you never get to read about the buffed up Sophos now. I've decided to take up knitting. yes emerald, it's all your fault.
And now for the While She Knits question: what are you reading? Like it? Hate it? Feeling meh about it? Discuss.
