Yeah, yeah — late again: story of my life. What do you expect? We left on a 6am flight. I’ve already mentioned the irritations of that first day of travel, so I’ll leave it at that. My paper on Alan Moore, as I mentioned, went well. Now to decide whether to submit it for the…

Another Plug!
Christopher over at What is Witchcraft?, a terrific blog on current as well as historical charges of witchcraft (like this one on a “demon headmaster”), has a nice post up on Jane Quiet with the cover.

Elena‘s put up her first go at the cover of Jane Quiet. She wants your feedback — is it gruesome enough?! What do you think? This is going to be our chief selling point to grab eyeballs — does it work?
All Quiet!
Elena brings it all to a close — whoo hoo! With luck it will not be long before we get Jane Quiet in physical form, too. Yee ha!
