Next Tuesday, April 12th, a very wonderful writer will turn 90 years old, and to celebrate Matt Cheney has created a special web site for her. Please go and check out The Carol Emshwiller Project. Here’s what Matt says about the site:
The creators of the site hope it can be many things — a place to collect information about Carol Emshwiller, as well as a big virtual birthday card. We like variety, not homogeneity. We like to be serious and we like to be silly. We like penetrating insight and we like absurd jokes. We insist on having joy in our cause.
I did get asked to contribute something, but I am crazy busy and don’t know Carol’s work nearly as well as I would like. So I’m doing this blog post. I’d like to wish Carol a very happy birthday, and I hope that many of you will discover her and her writing as a result of the celebrations.
