Paula Goodlett
In October of 2003, I broke my left
foot. Long story, complicated. Pretty silly how it happened, really. So, to prevent boredom while I was off work,
my husband and I went out and bought a computer. I'd experienced boredom after retiring in
1994, and already knew I didn't like it much.
I lurked on Baen's Bar in the 1632
conferences for a couple of days. I'd
always loved those books and had seen an ad for the forums somewhere. I decided to try my hand at a piece of
fan-fiction. Little did I know . . . Boredom hasn't been a factor since.
Previously
published works by Paula Goodlett are: "The

Assistant Editor's Preface
From: Grantville Gazette, Volume 10
Wow! Who knew? Way back in 1999, when people started writing fan fiction for 1632, who'd have thought it would grow like this? This is our tenth volume—and the fifth in 2006. And there's no lack of material for the next volume, either.

Wow. Here we go again. Grantville Gazette, Volume Nine. Who knew, back a few years ago, just how many people would be interested in the continuing soap opera of Grantville, WV, United States of Europe? I certainly didn't, but I spend part of every single day being happy that I picked up that book with the pickup truck and hillbillies on the cover.
If At First You Don't Succeed . . .
From: Grantville Gazette, Volume 9
"That will never work." Margaret looked up at her younger brother, Nathan, and stuck her tongue out at him. "Says you. And what do you know, what with all your years of experience?" "Pa says it won't work. And you've wasted your time. Time you could have been doing something more useful."
Try, Try Again
From: Grantville Gazette, Volume 9
"It isn't right." Marie lowered her eyes so that her employer wouldn't see the glare she couldn't suppress. "Ma'am, I did what the package said to do. Twice." She picked up the container of Spirits of Hartshorn and tried to get Frau Werrin to look at it.

And here we go—on time, just as promised. Grantville Gazette Volume 8 is ready for our discerning readers. Just what is going on in Europe these days of 1632 – 1635 or thereabouts?

Eric said, in the preface to Grantville Gazette Volume Five: "Sigh. Not one of these stories deals with Ye Big Picture. Not one of them fails to wallow in the petty details of Joe or Dieter or Helen or Ursula's angst-ridden existence. Pure, unalloyed, soap opera, what it is." And we continue in our grand soap operatic tradition with Grantville Gazette (count 'em) Volume Seven.
