I really like the use of modified aubades as a cohering device for the manuscript. If I saw "Aubade with Scorpions and Monsoon," "Constricting Aubade," and then "Aubade with Doves, a Television, and Fire" in a random table of contents, it would motivate me to take a chance on buying the book. No questions asked.
Congratulations on the publication!

Thanks! I had fun writing the Aubades. They also gave me the most headache while I was organizing the manuscript.
