Pat! Such a non-creepy dedication in Jeff’s Christmas gift. :) Glad to see that, since high school, you still (at least in online written word) sound the same, have the same handwriting and signature, and have finally turned into a Gnome.–Teresa

Errr….um…..err…hate to do this to you but…wait, lets start this off right, i loved the book, one of the best i have ever read, and i read alot of books. Okay ingratiation over (all true of course), now on to business. 2009? Wow!! What the delay, hehe? But on a serious note, it is very intriguing to know why it will take so long. One would think that b/c you had the trilogy all finished before the first was published that, if anything, we might see an accelarated publication of your books compared to the industry standard. Was there substantial rewrites you decided to make in order to deliver the very best possible experience to us? or do you have numerous other dark and hidden obligations going on? or is it merely happenstance? and should we then expect book three in 2011?okay thats all for now, save this: I just thought you should know, my identical twin brother (mid twenties) has a longer beard than you…maybe you should work on that while we wait for the next book :>)

Hi!! I have to admit, I stumbled across your book by accident while in Borders finishing the usual last second holiday shopping. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!! As a certified bibliophile, it is hard for me to find something new, unusual, and fantastic all at the same time. THANK YOU for breaking out of the formulaic and writing something so incredibly wonderful. Tell your publisher MORE PROMOS! It would be great if you could make the trip to the DC area as gehennaheretic suggests.Anyway, thank you for sharing your story with us. I can not WAIT until the future volumes come out. I just might not have found it yet on your site, but do you have an email alert list somewhere, where we can sign up for news on the latest release dates and promotional tours? Happy holidays!!!!!!!!!

Pat — glad you’re making it out here. If you want to do another signing event while you’re in the area, I recommend Brookline Booksmith.Anyway, if you need any pointers for places to go/stuff to do in Boston, or want to hang with another Gen Con panel vet while you’re in town, give me a shout.

Boston is great and all and from what I can tell you do plenty of book signings.But besides your amazingly entertaining blog, you never update your website. (Bestiaries Coming Soon?) Are they pat. are they.With the news of the delay. I am itching more than ever for your books. I wont ask.I just wonder if you could tie us over with additional facts about your story. Maybe some of the things you cut out. Update your site for all of your loyal blog fans.But as long as you keep blogging I will be happyMerry Christmas
