Behold The Awesome That Is The TTOS



I would have posted this yesterday, but Blogger was doing its I-hate-you thing, and wouldn't let me post any pictures. No matter, no matter. I'm ready today to announce the Awesome that is the Cybils is being paired with the awesome that is... me.

Okay, "me" being Wonderland, in that A.F. and I are serving as judges for the YA Fantasy/Science Fiction group - I'm a first tier judge, she's a final judge, so while we can't talk SFF books for awhile - it wouldn't be fair in the judging - we're for once both on the same team. Yay!

There are tons of other awesome people with whom I served last year, including brilliant folks like Steve Berman, Gwenda Bond, Charlotte Taylor, and the ever-fab Sheila Ruth. I am pretty much spazzed, though, about getting to serve with Leila Roy again, since she and I don't have as much time for World Domination By Way of Books as we used to, what with her going to library school and me trying to write three novels at once.

What? You missed that whole World Domination thing? Man, that's what we do. I mean, according to This One Dude, that's what we do.

See, This One Dude thinks it's pretty funny that Leila and I are being let loose in the same Cybils group. He said it was like the "Terrible Team of Something" getting together.

We have had Words about this.

But, the whole Team Terrible thing got me to thinking. I mean, if we're the Terrible Team of Something, shouldn't that superpower come with a T-shirt? Leila's usually the one who makes the awesome shirts, but this time... I'm going to jump start us on the design....


I dunno. I think it needs something.
Maybe a cape...

THE 2010 CYBILS NOMINATIONS START TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT!

You know the drill: one book per genre per person between October 1 and October 15. Ready... set....

You should buy one of those shirts for This One Dude and make him wear it. That would be truly vengeful. :)

I'm so excited we're both doing SFF this year. I will have to resist asking you for insider info, and limit myself to perusing your nominations-period blog posts...

Congratulations to both of you!
