Not a well bunny.

I can barely stand up and I have a sore throat and feel sick. Pol is making me up a flask of tea. I've asked him to wash his hands after any time he goes near me.

I haven't even congratulated him for the job offer yet. He is being unhuggy towards me just at the moment, I can't think why...

Ah, I see. I have never read Wrede at all, so this is the first time I have even heard of her.

I have not seen what Bujold said directly, only heard what others said about it: I got the impression she was drawing her conclusions from SF cons (where the members do tend overwhelmingly to be white). Someone, I think it was fjm, pointed out that the really interesting stuff in the Seventies was being done by people who weren't white and/or not straight — although I have to confess when I read some of it I didn't always know they were (say) black and gay.

I went to the original thread - she hasn't been misrepresented that I've seen, in what she said or why she said it. Since she said she was taking a few suggestions on board, she's been quiet on that thread. I don't expect you to read the thread, btw, but if you start looking into it, this will save you some googlespoons.

Yes, the cloistered world of fan cons has been mentioned a *lot*, and how historically unfriendly they've been to so many people.

OMG. She really does dig herself into the ground, doesn't she?
