Dear Ms McMaster Bujold, we plan to hold the fancy-dress ball in the beginning of May. It will be Barrayaran Ball. We want to create decorations for the hall. Could you tell us, what could be shown in the State Emblem of of Barrayar and the coat of arms of family Vorbarra? At least some of these objects are depicted on the coat of arms) Thank you very much in advance. Your Russian fans

Hi Tatyana --
Those are the sorts of details I normally leave each reader to imagine for themselves, so you are free to devise whatever pleases you. The great advantage of this is that fans can have all the choices, not just one.
Have fun!
Ta, Lois.

I was reading a thread (https://bit.ly/3FKJuMs) on how it was once considered prestigious for women in China to spend their entire lives - or as much time as possible - in decorated, raised canopy beds, and instantly thought back to float-chairs. The described attitude towards them especially seemed similar, as did one of the stories about the practice related in the post. Was this tradition an inspiration?

For the collected novella versions of Penric, do they include the original covers? Having seen a couple of Dan Dos Santos’s amazing covers, now I want them. But I am not an ebook guy, and missed all the previous editions. I have been waiting for them to come out in relatively affordable collected editions as Mass market pb or Trade pb.
