I’m indexing a book on human genetics this afternoon. I keep misreading ‘gene therapy’ as ‘genre therapy’
Hmmmmmmm

That’s nothing. e-mailed last week suggesting volunteering to provide a bowel of miniature Easter eggs for con-goers. I told him I desperately hoped he meant ‘bowl’.

Kim Wilkins and I were talking about babies a month or two back, and (iirc) she let slip that she hadn’t known the genre of her latest before giving birth. Now, I only hear that word instead of gender. It can be quite disconcerting.

She's giving birth to a romance novel? Brave woman.
