First and foremost, huge congratulations to [livejournal.com profile] shadowhwk, whose very first e-book is now available for online purchase and download! Go Sarah! :) :) I will be buying and downloading a copy when I get home to my computer.

Second up, I have chugged through Anne Perry's fourth William Monk novel, A Sudden, Fearful Death, and [livejournal.com profile] naominovik's third Temeraire novel, Black Powder War. Comments will be forthcoming over the weekend. I'm now working on Elizabeth Lowell's Always Time to Die.

My expedition to Target was successful, and now I have several more pairs of summer-weight pants with which to get through the last few days of my contract. (Today, my pants are dark blue. I mention this mostly because they go stunningly well with my pink Great Big Sea shirt and socks in shades of blue and purple, as well as my hat! I feel all colorful and coordinated and stuff.) [livejournal.com profile] solarbird got to purchase some cute clothing as well, and last but not least, we ate out at a Thai place in downtown Bothell to celebrate [livejournal.com profile] spazzkat's official acquisition of a JOB!

Looking forward to the weekend, even though I have to take the cat to the vet for her bi-annual old lady kitty exam. But, weather permitting, there will also be biking to Woodinville to see X3. And reading! And watching Doctor Who! And writing!

Okay, this is for the Seattleites (and denizens of places nearby to Seattle, and persons who used to live around here but who don't anymore) on my Friends list, a question I'm considering as part of my planning for books 2 and 3 to go with Faerie Blood. My question for you all is this:

What communities around Seattle would you consider to be 'local', and generally part of the greater Seattle metropolitan area? How far do you have to go before you feel like you're in a completely different city?

Feel free to move in any direction you like on the map in relation to Seattle itself.
