This from Top Shelf Books in Palatine, Illinois (courtesy of Gene's daughter):
"Gene Wolfe just emailed me saying he may stop by tonight with a short
story IF WE HAVE ROOM FOR HIM! Whaddya think I said, eh? SO EXCITING!"

If you are in the area of Palatine...

Dang,

I used to live five minutes from Palatine, in Barrington, five doors down from Gene. Alas, I am not a New Yorker (or rather, a Connectican who commutes to Manhattan).

Sigh.

I used to live 8 miles from Barrington.  Now I'm 350 miles away.

Ryan -

If it helps ease the pain at all, Gene mentioned you again Tuesday evening
in a phone conversation with me.  You are remembered!!!
