@thesoniashow.bsky.social I was listening to the "Mannequin" episode of the podcast. It occurred to me that Margo probably has spoken with Meshach Taylor about his role as Hollywood Montrose. I am tempted to do a seance to see what she found out. :)

@maryrobinettekowal.com Just read "Martian Contingency". Liked the story & character development in the second half of the book. Reading your author's note at the end, I appreciate what you endured to finish this book. Don't know if this is the last book in the series but wouldn't say no to another.
