FINISHED READING Joshua Palmatier’s The Skewed Throne. I enjoyed it very much — it’s quite good, even leaving aside that it’s a first novel.
UPDATE: He’s got a blog, too. This story about an accidental rejection letter is pretty funny.
I once got a rejection letter from a law review for a piece I’d never submitted to them. On the other hand, I’ve also gotten an acceptance for a piece I never submitted, so I guess it evens out.
