I like reading introductions too, which is why I wanted to do it, but it's a little more intimidating to *write* them.Tara Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095632631554776002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37083420.post-62501836636153105912010-09-26T07:34:55.543-07:002010-09-26T07:34:55.543-07:00Thanks, Nevets.

The space opera fit well with the theme of "conmergence" too, because it was a Philip Dick type plot about a man who is fighting on both sides a war of independence and doesn't realize it. Oh, well, if I can't include it here, maybe I'll fit it into another anthology. :)Tara Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095632631554776002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37083420.post-32824046867069694492010-09-26T07:27:29.442-07:002010-09-26T07:27:29.442-07:00Hang in there, Tara.

Too bad the space opera won't be in there. I was looking forward to reading some space opera by Tara Maya.<br /><br />As far as the introductions go, I've read some that were very personal and some that were not. (Though to be honest most of the personal ones were put together after the author's death. There's not something you need to tell us, is there?) I think either way is fine; it's just a matter of the tone you as the author choose to set.C. N.

I think you it would be neat if your introductions were personal.J.B. Chicoinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06894797553204276281noreply@blogger.com
