In keeping with the theme du weekend of linguistics, here is one of the Elgin stories I have referred to elsewhere. Its pretty good.
Something is about to happen, Hal. Something wonderful!

Haven't read any of her fiction yet, so this will hopefully be interesting.

(Copied it into a text file on da machine. That webpage design is annoying.)

I've been a bit leery about reading her since looking into Láadan.... Ultra-femme rhetoric tends to give me hives. :roll:
