    What should I say? I had really been expecting to play second fiddle to Mistress Thalia. You can come out now sounds kind of lame! More like a sidekick than a sole proprietress.
    In a cold dignified voice, I advised Colin to stay on his hands and knees.
    "Yes, Mistress."
    "Is the door unlocked?"
    "Yes, Mistress."
    Do they say this just to get on your nerves?

Y'know, I've thought that myself ;)

Yes, I have the new Nancy Chan book. Nope, can't lend it yet. If you don't know what I'm talking about, read the Salon series. Not only is it online, but it's Nancy's debut.

I am wondering if Tracy Quan has seen Firefly. I'm hoping she worked references to Inara in this book. Won't know til I read it. Reading now....
