Only because I’m on the damned thing ALL the time already and my feet would blow up if I didn’t give them a break.

I’ve got a vacation coming up, though, and if I don’t get a copy in my hot little hands by then, damned skippy I’m going to read it on the computer! Worst part of that is that I can’t drag around a G5 to shove in people’s faces to demand they look at what my famous friend made!

How many years since I got the first taste of this epic?

Uh…

Your problem is you don’t want to read on the computer.

How many years since I got the first taste of this epic? You understand my impatience, surely.

So damn, woman–the book is up on Amazon, but no artwork?

When Amazon gets the physical book, they cut it apart and scan the cover and the first few pages or whatever for the “peek inside” feature. They won’t load the artwork until they get the book.

And…they haven’t gotten the book yet.

I don’t know that I have the time or money to even entertain the concept of an ebook reader, but I think I’d like the idea of having inside information to fluff out the details. I think if one went overboard, though, it would end up being like that extra disc you get with your DVDs–hours and hours of crap you hardly bother with because you really just want to get on with the story, not a 2-hour treatise on the wardrobe dept. and what the actors did on their day off.

I’m all atwitter to finish reading the monster so I can gush approriately in the reader reviews.

(Crap–how come this MB keeps changing my html so the link won’t open in a new tab?)
