Everybody was KUNG-FU FIGHTING!

Remember last week, when I was all "let's get ready to rumble," because the BSC Book Tournament was getting underway, and Toby needed help to stay in the game? Well, your help totally helped, because Toby CRUSHED her competition, taking 93% of the vote. Wowie!

That means she's moving on to Round Two in the competition, where she's going up against Imager's Intrigue by L.E. Modesitt, Jr. Again, I haven't read the book she's pitted against, but I'm sure it's awesome if it managed to win its previous round.

So here is my plea: please, go, vote! Keep Toby from getting her ass kicked on the literary playground as things get ugly! Victory is just a (whole bunch of...) click away.

GO TOBY GO!

These people are obviously not familiar with Toby's raw fortitude (c.f. the ending of An Artificial Night).

Wait, epic fail. Not only did I improperly punctuate cf., I'm using it wrong! Grr. Would this more properly be e.g.?

Yes.

Luckily, you're cute when you abuse the English language.

Unfortunately, I approach word use much like I approach work with power tools. I get the general idea of how they function by watching other people use them but am so eager to grab them up and dive in to work that I frequently miss important operational details.

Thank goodness for safety goggles, for which I have no literary equivalent.
