Meetings and lions

The regular CVS meeting included sitting in on a guest author talk, Lauren Winner, author of Girl Meets God and Mudhouse Sabbath. The B&N community liaison had arranged for Winner to tailor her talk somewhat to our needs, answering our questions about writing and publishing. Her first book landed her on the B&N "Discover" program, exploring her spirituality and her conversion from Judaism to Christianity. She told us interestingly that her publisher Random House is doing two paperback editions for Girl Meets God, one geared towards the mainstream and one for their Christian publishing imprint.
Found the Nature magazine with the mummified lion article. The lion was male, suggesting he was possibly a dedication to Mahes, son of Sekhmet. Still no idea why I'm so fascinated with the subject, other than general curiosity.
sailormac: Had you seen this comic explaining Go?
Writing still stalling out. Pat, I'd like to buy a muse please, preferably not one that looks like Sharon Stone and causes chaos in her wake.
