Actually, it wasn't vanity. I was in search of an old friend of mine, googled her name and couldn't find anything on her. I wondered whether you'd find ME if you googled me. So I did.
Under "Claudia Drescher" there were some old posts of mine to the Bujold list, some posts of Doug to shw-i (when he visited me and used my account, back in the old days at the University of Saarbrücken), and -- five or so German science fiction sites, all mentioning my award-winning short story "Flywheel".
Boy, that felt good. And odd.
Now I want to write again. Pop up some more on science fiction sites. Pure vanity but as good a reason as any other for writing, eh? Let's see what becomes of it...
