What's the secret meaning of Taura? Is Rish a child's mispronunciation of Lapis Lazuli or something else?
Lois McMaster Bujold
Taura is Miles's notion of the feminine form of Taurus, for the Minotaur found at the heart of the Labyrinth.
I don't know where the name/nickname Rish came from; I don't think it's a mispronunciation, no.

I must say that the Vorkosigan saga is my favorite work of yours! I have reread the books so many times and the Civil Campaign is definitely the one I always recommend to my friends - it is amazing. I would like to ask whether you plan to write another book for the Vorkosigans or the lovely cousin Vorpatril? (and I really hope so). Thank you!

My mother and I share a love of your books. I have all of your Penric novellas in ebook, but she only reads print. I would love to give her the novellas for her 80th bday, but Penric's Demon is not in print...so I can't even get her started. Do you know if it is going to be back in print any time soon? I have searched online and can only find one used copy for $190...which is a little out of my price range :)

Hi! I am a teacher for German as foreign language and wanted to use one of Paul de Becker's drawings. Am I allowed to use it in class and upload it on ISL Collective (a site, where language teachers upload their work sheets)? I'd like to write an e-mail and send the drawing as attachment. Is it possible? Otherwise there is no possibility of satisfactory answer. I am no member of Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter.
