Me, elsewhere.
I’ve been too busy working on the last launch details of C&D2 to blog much, but I have been blogging in other places.

Oh, I had no idea that you were Catholic, though reading the properly rendered angel in City and the Dungeon gave me a moment’s pause. It’s really cool to run into another Catholic SF/F/genre writer. Makes me glad to support you.
Can’t wait for Tuesday’s release!
Thanks!
