Off to Gamehole Con!
Wow, what a wild summer that was. Three books I worked on came out — which I haven’t even mentioned here yet. I hit Origins, Comic-Con, and Gen Con. And I caught Covid (again).
I recovered well, but that and some family health issues put me way behind on deadlines, so I’ve barely looked up from my keyboard for the past several weeks. I canceled trips, concerts, and catching up with friends to get

“Writing is an act of discovery in which you peel back the layers of the story as you write it down.”

“Who the hell is Warren Ellis again?”
Hardison gaped at the man. “Only one of the greatest comics writers in the past twenty years. Might as well ask who Alan Moore is, or Frank Miller, or Mark Waid, or Brian Michael Bendis, or Marv Wolfman, or Geoff Johns.”
Eliot gave Hardison a blank look as they wove their way through the hall. Parker took the lead, toting a printed sign with her. Eliot and Hardison trailed in her wake. They made a point of striding right past Patronus’s booth. They didn’t turn to see if he noticed them.
“No one?” Hardison said. “Nothing? Not even Kurt Busiek? Neil Gaiman?”
“I have a life. I do things, active things. I date women.”
“Stan Lee?”
Eliot gave Hardison that one with a wag of his head. “Who hasn’t heard of Stan Lee?”
“All right,” Hardison said with satisfaction. “You had me worried there, man.”

“He's not dead, Parker." He clenched his jaw so hard she could see the muscles working in it.
"Are you just saying that to make me feel better?"
"No, I'm saying it to make myself feel better.”
