Re: She's suck a geek!

Yeah, I would've liked to have heard about the process of editing the book from both of them while @ WisCon! The intro did say they got so many submissions they could've easily done a second book--that'd be nice...

I would also like to expand the definition of "geek" a little bit. Like, okay, there's never been a book like this about women geeks in traditional geeky fields like science. But what about folks who are geeky about... I dunno, knitting? But I realize that example crosses perilously into hipster territory. Um, I dunno... figure skating? Hahahaha. Just... there are so many different ways to be geeky, all w/their own difficulties.
