lagilman | to excerpt, or not to excerpt:

that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to offer
The words and quips of unpublished section,
Or to stay silent in the face of fandom,
And by not posting annoy them? To stay mute: to post;
No more; and by not post to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand rude comments
That fandom is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To finish, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to revise: ay, there's the rub;
For in that revision letter what changes may come
When we have already given our fannish morsels,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of offering early looks;

(at which point my dad, having heard me out, said with equal amounts dismay and pride: "that's terrible." And so I cease).

But the question remains: anyone out there want an early excerpt from BURNING BRIDGES? Or would you rather wait?

ETA: the excerpts from the first two books are still available on my web site:

Staying Dead
Curse the Dark
