Heya... Bob Schroeck, here, known as "he who hasn't seen 'Cowboy Bebop' but is vaguely interested in it because he's heard a few cool things about it, but can't convince the wife to add it to the list of must-try anime yet". Seriously, I discovered Eyrie's stuff when I stumbled onto HL and then UF, geeze, I guess about five years ago, but I only started to get *really* into it when I finally decided to read NXE last year right after Gryphon posted that meta-meta-continuity chat between himself and DJ Croft. (I figured anything that spawned something *that* odd had to be worth a look.) That, plus "Gods Willing II," dropped me firmly into the EPU fancamp. I'm a writer myself, too -- both pro and fan.
