Welcome - I'm always glad to hear/read things like this. It goes a degree or so above knowing someone's enjoyed our work to know that it's helped in some way, if that makes sense.

Y'know, I could swear we'd met sometime before, somewhere, years ago. I don't go to all that many cons, but I get the feeling it was at one. Maybe the year I was at Arisia; I was so ill most of that weekend that I don't remember it in great detail, so that might be why the specifics are eluding me.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I was grumpy at you at ACen - I was having a weird day. Right in the middle of this huge inspiration surge for Wounded Rose, trying to find time to work on it without being hugely antisocial to Truss and invalidating the reason I'd paid the money and shlepped to Chicago in the first place, and all that. I didn't mean anything by it. Next time we run into each other, remind me to be more sociable. :)

Everybody who knows Zoner gets tired of being asked where he is, because he's so rarely where he's supposed to be at the appropriate times. That too is nothing personal. :) I've worked with him at several jobs, and at every one of them the Powers that Be have gotten it into their heads that I will know where he is and why he isn't where they expected him to be at any given time.
I love that illo, by the way. :)
