The cage match continues: two enter, one leaves.

Okay, yes, I admit it: I have a lot of deadlines right now, I have a lot of editing that's nibbling at me like a flock of wild ducks, and playing literary cage match is currently my guilty "sometimes it's okay to be crazy-silly" pleasure. Thanks to everyone who's been tolerating my crazy; double thanks to everyone who's been helping me with it. And now, today's cage match updates:

Over in the Fourth Annual BSC Review Tournament, Toby has managed to make it to round three. So far, she's defeated both Butcher's Turn Coat and Brett's The Warded Man...but now she's going up against Juliet Marillier's Heart's Blood, and the race remains too close to call. Rally! Help Toby progress! Especially since catvalente's Palimpsest is still swinging (currently against The Red Wolf Conspiracy by Robert V. S. Redick), and there's a wacky bonus comic strip in it for you if we wind up facing off in the final round. Pretty please?

Meanwhile, over in the GIRL FIGHT TONIGHT, Toby has made it to the Elite Eight, and needs only to smack down Hunter from Neverwhere to make a clean sweep of her bracket! Woo! From here, the winner goes up against the winners of other brackets, which means she'd have the opportunity to get beat down by a Discworld girl. You know you want to see that.

Go forth, vote, and keep Toby kicking ass!

Deep breaths, and good show you!

And in other news...

Australian cousin of T.Rex found. Probably had a temper much like that of the Tasmanian Devil. Yet another fatal Australian lifeform for you to encounter (well, if you manage to find a time machine there).

But please finish the books before you go *g*...

It's currently Toby vs. Minerva and Granny vs. Cordelia. It looks like a Toby vs. Granny match may be in the offing. (Toby will lose, and I will not mind.)

Note: down to the final four! Toby is up against Minerva, and it's pretty close (35 to 30 at the moment, Toby slightly in the lead). Granny is whuppin' Cordelia's donkey...
