Be wicked and lovely...

It's a Wicked Girls day here in sunny California, where I've just received the confirmation that Wicked Girls is now available for order on CDBaby.com. If you missed the pre-order period, or just need another copy, this is your chance! We're probably going to sell out their available stock pretty quickly, but that's okay; they'll ask me for more, which I will dispatch promptly, and showing them the level of demand will help to set the tempo of their restock requests.

Theodora Goss has written a beautiful contemplation on what it is to be a wicked girl. People I've never met are taking this up as a rallying cry, and that warms my heart and gives me hope.

Emily Gilman has also posted her contemplations on being wicked and lovely, and not living in fear, and these are two brave, bold women I've never met, talking about what it takes to fly.

Be brave. Be true. Fly.

That's all I'll ever ask of you.

ETA: CDBaby now says "out of stock," but will take requests anyway. That's fine. Go ahead and place your order now, and I should have a restock request from them by Monday, at which point they'll have more CDs, and I'll have less.

I trust that you're Dino-dancing in your seat! I love so much that you do, but I'd probably say that the single thing that continues to make me smile is the honest hope that I see you have for those around you. It's not the uber-sweet sentimentality that doesn't expect things from them. Rather, I see you as the brilliant, experienced aunt who knows that people are capable of much more, and who demands it, or gives a well-intentioned rebuke to put the World on the right path.

Thanks again for Wicked Girls. The album is still kicking my ass. In a good way. My sister's getting a copy for her birthday, and the signed print goes to my niece!
