Splinter Universe update -- you can help!

Dear Friends of Liad --

just as we're about to start the next segment of the Liaden Universe® World Tour we've recently updated the Splinter Universe site with a couple of "new to the site" items. Today, there's three chapters from my Quicksliver project, http://splinteruniverse.com/?page_id=652 written in the mid and late 70s ... and last week there was an outtake from a Val Con and Miri story/situation that was never used. http://splinteruniverse.com/?page_id=630 Neither of these recent additions have been published before -- so go, look them over, and enjoy. Want to help? There are donation buttons so you can support the site or show appreciation for the story splinters you find there -- and unlike purchases through Amazon, B&N, or Smashword, those funds are available to us immediately.

Wait -- did you forget about the world tour? This segment is covering more than a dozen stops in the northeast over a couple weeks:
