Cristina Escalante is here.

I'm juggling two projects at once this weekend, which always hurts my brain.  Here are some recent happenings:

• Shawn at Suvudu asked if any of my books originally had different titles. There are a few.
• Paul Cornell wondered what I was doing for Christmas.
• The ABC's Life Matters program wanted to interview me about my essay on Doctor Who in 50 Voices of Disbelief.
• Au Contrair, the New Zealand natcon, very kindly asked me to be their 2010 GOH, and I'm excited to be going.
• The Dragon Book is out and looks awesome.  If you want to know what happens to Ros after The Changeling, here's part one.

If I hear one more Christmas carol, I swear I might have to kill someone.  Unless it's this one, of course:
