Today in 1959, a small plane carrying Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens crashed. The day became known as the Day the Music Died, and gave Don McLean the perfect line for a song.

Now that you're all depressed, cheer up - there's good readin' out there for you! As I mentioned yesterday, Mad Kestrel makes her mass market appearance in stores. But that's not all!! My pal David B Coe has a book making its mass market debut today, too! The Sorcerer's Plague, Book One of David's Blood of the Southlands, is out there, just waiting to go home with some worthy reader.

So what are you guys waiting for? It's going to be cold tonight - perfect night for reading!

So my friend danicia posted the news that SteamCon is taking registration. Bad enough that I'd love to go out to Seattle and see my friend (whom I haven't seen in ages) but then I clicked through to the site...and their Guest of Honor is Tim Powers.

And USAir can fly me there for $199.

Somebody talk me out of this!
