Lisa on Righteous Anger
 
Had a lovely e-mail from ORU First Expansion member, awesome sports woman and avid reader Lisa O. this morning, sharing her reaction to Righteous Anger with me. See excerpt below:




... I think rugby should at least have a warning label.
I'm really wishing I was a Sevolite as I would regenerate!

I got RA in the UNBC bookstore saturday. I'd finished it
by sunday night, even with eating, sleeping, visiting the
beach, playing rugby, and another book for a mental break
halfway through. Maybe a total of four hours.

It was goooooood! I loved it!



Thank you Lisa!

Sports in the Okal Rel Universe
 
Lisa Fencing, of course, is the main recreational sport among Sevolites as well as being integral to Sword Law, but it stands to reason there would be other kinds. I asked ORU reader and e-mail buddy Lisa what she thought about that, since she is way-y-y more sports savvy than I am, and got this response:

"I like the idea of the sports in ORU. I think the Demish might play
something a little less violent [than soccer]. A variation might be good, with stricter rules. The Vrellish would probably prefer something like rugby or football.
I think rugby'd fit better, as it has no padding."
