I really enjoy the Penric series, but I am disappointed that I cannot seem to find them as a physical copy anywhere. Are you planning to release them all together at some point as a full novel? Is there some way I can get them as a paperback or hardcover copy?
Lois McMaster Bujold
You seem to have missed all my blog posts about Penric's Progress a collection of the first 3 novellas, released as a hardcover by Baen Books in January, and Penric's Travels, a collection of the next 3, upcoming in May (or thereabouts -- book distribution being disrupted just now. But it'll catch up eventually.)
Prior to that, there were all the Subterranean Press hardcover chapbooks of the individual novellas. "Penric's Demon" is long sold out, but most of the others are still floating around -- Uncle Hugo's Science Fiction Bookstore here in Minneapolis still has most of them, signed, and does mail order. And, of course, they have plenty of copies of Penric's Progress. Dreamhaven Book & Comics also has some. Likewise Amazon and B&N.
You get them by ordering them -- waiting for them to spontaneously turn up at any particular bookstore is a crapshoot. Check the assorted websites.

I just reread "Diplomatic Immunity" for the umpteenth time and wondered if you ever had any plans to write a story about what the Cetagandan Star Crèche might have ended up doing with Miles' blood sample/genome? The first time I read it back in 2002 I hoped they would somehow be able to use it to make his body much better.

In nearly all your books, you use only a single Point of View character, and generally I really love your close third person style. Recently, though, I was rereading The Warrior's Apprentice, and it occurred to me that Elena has a huge personal story that we don't get to see much of. Did you ever consider using a dual POV for this book, or otherwise consider letting us see the world through Elena's eyes?
