This might be some of the best innuendo I have ever seen.
Agreed :D


I credit blame the mimosas...  ;) :D

As a complete derail err...sidenote, how many folks here will be going to Comicpalooza at the end of the month down here in Houston? I'll be chained to a table in Artist's Alley, so if one of you could slip me a hacksaw blade so I can go chase roller derby lasses... just saying :D

And yes, Fraser, I'll do a book signing if they'll have me, but the game is going to print first, this week, actually, and I'm not sure if they'd be interested in that or not (sci-fi and all). The novels go through the agent, then the publisher, get kicked back for editing revisions, then back to the publisher, then kicked back for MORE editing revisions, get put on a shelf while I get institutionalized for mental anguish, then back to the publisher, and so on until FINALLY going to print :D

Well, THEY say that some tortures are good for the soul... whoever the hell "THEY" are.  You being one of our own and fastasy being a sub of SciFi, I'm quite sure they could see their way clear to offering this to you.  Ravic DID ask a while back.  ;)  If this comes out as good as i think it will, it would be a nice feather in his hat and a finger right in the eye of others.  ;D  I feel that you have earned a wee bit of justice, my friend.


BTW, I'll be there... look for the big guy,in BDU's, laughing at you from in back.  :D  Which weekend?

Oh, I wish I could be there, Breandan... I could totally play fangirl for you!  ;)  :D  And I'm sure you get to ogle at least one or two roller derby girls at some point, even if you don't get to actually chase them...  LOL


I'll have to tell Taffy to look for your table, as well, since I'm pretty sure she'll be there this year, also.  



I'm off to have lunch with my mom, daughter and the brothers and their wives.  Hope everyone is enjoying the gorgeous day, and wishing the mothers in their lives a Happy Mom's Day!

Fraser- 17th, 28th, and 29th of May, I'll be there the whole weekend. Company has a hotel room reserved for me and Jeff.

Rani- Yay for fangirls! ;) Dunno what table number it will be, supposed to find out this week, but the folks running the con are pretty swamped so I'm not holding it against them if it's a last-minute thing. Artist's Alley is big-ish, but we're not THAT hard to find. Look for me sitting next to a deranged Asian artist covered in marker stains and growling at small children ;)

Uhhh... HELLOO?!?  Won't that be almost EVERY table?!?  :D 

So, are you gonna cosplay for the weekend, then?  In something awesomely dark and sexy, preferably...?  Oh... well... I guess it would probably be a good idea to see some of your work before I just assume it's all dark and sexy, huh?  ::)  LOL 

Links, maybe?  And when can I buy the books?

Fraser's read some of it, he could probably judge better than I could from a reader's perspective. Not going to cosplay, have panels and such, plus I think there's media interview(s) involved, still not sure. Besides, to cosplay characters from the novels I'd need Weta's prop department :D

...though a set of mil-spec IBAH armour and a Sierra pulse pistol would be damned fun ;D

Well, I want to read some, also!  Not fair...  :P 

Oh, hey... Juju will be there, also, and of course she'll be in something completely mouth-watering... so who needs roller derby girls, right?  heheh  I still think something just a bit dark and sexy would be appropriate, even if it isn't cosplay... and especially if there's gonna be media!!!  ;)


Ok, found your DA link, so I can at least read a little.  I'm liking the artwork so far, and your armor looks interesting!  Ooooh, and regen tanks!  That always helps when you have a finite supply of fresh meat, huh?  :D 


Well, I guess I found my evening's entertainment!

Oh, trust me, haven't forgotten about Juju, but I'm sure she's got too many lads following her around like stalkers, so I behave :) As for what I'll be wearing, probably something simple but professional, though I may wind up in this on Saturday, unless I can weasel out of it >.<
Oh, and check your PM ;)

Actually... that's what you just sent to ME!  I thought for a second it might be the first in a series ( :o ), but I guess it was just a link mix up...  :P  :D 

VERY nice, btw... and definitely fits the "dark and sexy" criteria.  ;) 


Oh, and since Juju has officially announced (well, on fb, anyway) that she has moved on to greener pastures once more, she should definitely have at least one young lad in tow!

She does...I have yet again played Juju match maker for her..third times the charm, right?

"MOUSE,n. "Animalistic man-child which strews it's path with fainting woman"....less so these days :)

Rani Zemirah

Lets hope so, because I'm starting to get whiplash!  :P 

Seriously, though... I hope he's good enough for her.  I can't say I know many who are sweeter, and she deserves someone who will treat her like gold.  I lubs my Jujube...

Yes, i had the HONOR of tearing through 90 pages or so... and it left me extremely impressed... ok, beyond impressed.  My burly Irish friend is WAY too modest about his talent.  He is one of those writers that paint a picture in your mind.  I've been left for the last year, bouncing up & down, waiting for him to get back from the Sandbox, finish it and get it to bloody print! :D ;D

Ok, everyone, leave our JuJu be... it's bad enough that she almost needs pepper spray to keep her admirers at bay!  ;)


JuJu is my little sister... if she asks, i'll gladly beat someone to death with Mouse's body!  ;D :D
