"San Diego 2014: The Last Stand of the California Browncoats" open thread!

To celebrate the release of "San Diego 2014: The Last Stand of the California Browncoats," here. Have an open thread to discuss the novella. It's been out for a week, I figure you've had time.

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. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.)

You can also start a 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, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.

Have fun, and you can't stop the signal.

I read this last weekend, while reading live-blogging of the con and perusing photo galleries, and adored the writing even while I cried. And then I thought that writing Unis's death must have hurt you as much or more as writing the Browncoats' deaths. Well-done. *salutes Seanan with a very soggy tissue*

I didn't want to kill another dog. :( But sadly, her owner won the charity auction (also awesomely, because hello, charity) and wanted her dog to go with her. I felt that, under the circumstances, that helped.

Well actually we were thinking of Clarion in 2014. Oh bugger, I'm so screwed :D

You did an awesome job Seanan! Thank you so much for including both of us.

I have been known to throw books across rooms when authors kill off dogs or children just for some quick sympathy or a jump scare. Thankfully for my netbook, you don't do that. Unis and Lesley were an organic part of the story and you treated both of them with respect.
