A Nice Comment To Start The Day

An Australian reader sent me an email about my story "In the Blink of an Eye" in the current issue of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine.
Dear Dr Kaldon
I've just read In the Blink of an Eye in Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine and I wanted to let you know that I thought it was terrific. One of the best short stories I have come across in many years - excellent blend of storytelling and science. Also pleased to discover that Kalamazoo is a real place!


How nice. And how perceptive. (big-grin)

And I'm not trying to be mean here, but it fascinates me that someone from Australia thinks of Kalamazoo as a weird name which might not have been real. (happy-grin)

Anyway, that email made my day.

Well on your way to having your own coterie of groupies like Neil Gaiman. :)

You know, if you had used Canberra, you might get the same reaction here in the States. And if you used Melbourne people would accuse you of making a M. Morecock allusion.

Actually the story is set in Houston -- Kalamazoo is where I work and is listed in the author bio, which is how this guy found my email address.
