Comments: LH: TOP 20.

This lurker, dabbler, one-language speaker, is clamoring. Can't wait for the book, congrats on the well earned lauds.

"Let them clamor", said Queen Kristina, shortly before abdicating the throne to become a nunlike entity in Venice.

And we will continue to clamor, incessantly!

And eat cake!

Congrats!
(Not to dilute the honor, but the linked post is now "Top 21 Language Bloggers on the Web". It looks like Jon added Number 21 based on some comments he received.)

Congrats on both accounts! All you need to do now is get a nod from the Haberdasherers Award Council and you'll have pulled off a nice hat trick.

...I apologize.

Congratulations, lh - when can we expect to see it on UK bookshelves?

It's on UK bookshelves now (or was earlier—it may be out of print already), but I'm not publicizing that edition because it doesn't have my name on it. The US edition will be "by Stephen Dodson and Dr. Robert Vanderplank" and have my introduction.

Haberdashers? Milliners?
