DEADLINE open thread. Have a party.

To celebrate the release of Deadline [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy], here. Have an open thread to discuss the book.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned.

You can also start a book discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence. I will probably answer a great many comments. I may not answer all of them.

Have fun!

Shaun is kidnapped by the CDC and is given a questionnaire consisting of one question:

Have you committed any sort of incest? We just like to know these things. You know. For science.

...that wasn't the question I was asking.

We've all seen posts from Seanan in the past where she said one variant or another of "I had no idea the book was going there until I wrote that sentence...." I was curious how early in the writing process Sean & Georgia told her they were sleeping together.

...I was jokingly answering how it gets revealed in the book.

Whether or not I thought you were actually revealing plot points (and having made the mistake of reading Transmetropolitan right after I woke up this morning, I'll admit the idea was at least plausible), that's still orthogonal to the point that I asked "When did the characters tell their writer" and you answered "When did the characters tell the audience."

That said, this is really something ridiculous to get hung up on, so I'm dropping it now. Sound good? ;-)

I think he was jokingly replying to the part of your comment that said "but I'll have the book by Friday, and I don't know how this gets revealed".

That would be correct.
