Lines: 18 From: Rich Zellich Having met her at multiple conventions, I think I can say unequivocally that yes, she is a warm, loving human being, interested in and interesting to others. She is also a delightfully bawdy woman, and a hell of a raconteur! To catch her act, look into attending Norwescon 9 in Seattle, 20-23 March 1986; right now, that's the only place I know of her appearing in the US in the next year (their other guests are Kelly and Polly Freas, Spider & Jeannie Robinson, & Greg Bennett; see publicly-accesible SRI-NIC file CONS.TXT for more information). She is subsidized by the Irish government (paid to stay home and write, essentially), and only gets to take 2 trips a year out of the British isles (as I understand her situation, anyway). -Rich ------- Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
