Just finished reading the latest Illona Andrews 'Inkeeper series' book, 'One Fell Sweep'. Really am enjoying this urban fantasy/soft romance/science fiction series. They have other series that are more popular, I think, but this one just appeals to me with this fascinating 'verse where innkeepers bond with living inns in a symbiotic relationship in order to host visiting aliens and keep the Earth safely ignorant of the greater universe. The main protagonist faces constant struggles- her parents and their inn vanished before the first book began, she was given a nearly dead inn (they go dormant and wither without a keeper and also need guests to prosper) so she has to work to increase the inn's reputation even at great risk, while at the same time always hoping to find a clue to her parents' disappearance. Lots of well-realized aliens, all varying as to appearance, aims, friendliness, etc. Really love the characters, they're all fascinating, and the main protagonist is extremely sympathetic.
Also, Spoonflower recently put some (50 or so) of my designs on Etsy & I actually got a commission yesterday. That's a much faster result than the same number of my designs they put on Amazon. I think Etsy is a more popular venue for folks looking for unusual printed fabrics.
And Spoonflower is going to offer a new purchase option starting in early April that I think will be good- buyers will be able to choose two different designs to be both printed on the same yard (I think it'll be divided horizontally) & people have wanted half yards for a long time, so this will be close to that. And there's going to be 'templates' to fill in with different designs- they were fairly vague on that, but still-- if you can get several different designs on a yard, that'll be a better bargain for many people who wanted to make small things, or patchwork, etc.
