Weren’t you going to get an assistant a while back? It might help if you had someone to run interference on all the “get out of your chair events” that pop up in day to day life.

Well, I haven’t caught up with the complete Scalzi oeuvre yet (eesh that’s a tough one to spell)–still gotta get through The Last Colony, Zoe’s Tale, and The Android’s Dream (and, uh, “You’re Not Fooling Anyone When You Bring Your Laptop to a Coffee Shop.” Any chance of a trade paper release on that one?) So no worries. I shall continue to leisurely work my way through your work.

I also have to keep pushing ahead on my own novel (now into draft 2.5, and at 117,000 words, a bit too long.)

To Do List for 2010:

Keep reading John Scalzi (because regardless of the format it is NOT a waste of time).

For purely selfish reasons, I’m glad to hear of your ass planting scheme.
I’ll not begrudge you a little R&R time between writing sessions, but don’t overdo it….

Urk, I forgot to close that parenthesis after the “.” after the book title. Please insert “)”.

This all sounds fabulous; more Scalzi publications in any form is always good news. I wish you a peaceful and productive New Year!

I don’t know if this is useful feedback but I find that I enjoy your humorous novels more than the ones that may contain humor but are not intended to be humorous. While I’m sure there are more things you can write (and many people would want to see) in the OMW universe, I’d like to see some more in the Android’s Dream Universe (Yes, I’ll be checking out “Judge Sn goes Golfing”. The only thing I think I’d like more about these novels is if you refrained from smell gags. But then, that might be too much to ask.

William:

Don’t know yet; they’re still in the process of figuring out the new season and it’s also the holidays. I expect I’ll know one way or another in January. I’m not to worried about it in any event.
