RE: Needleworkmonday- Monarch Scarf progress
Yes, yes (jumping up and down) I found your book shelfs. I am already listing which I will start to read next 😁😁
And you are fortunate to live in the US, so that you have the possibility to meet all these authors ( I may be a bit envious) I am still a big fan of Rothfuss (although there seem to be a very negative mood on Goodreads against him - but I think a author is allowed to write as fast or slow as he wants). Steven Brust I do not know (or remember - I will check later) and Harris I only know through film. But the others authors are in my favourites.
Sometimes I feel a bit ashamed, that I read so much “easy” literature.... but I cannot stop, I am addicted 🤪
How was it to meet Butcher and Briggs... I guess there is always a slight risk that one do not like an artist as a person and that this could mirror back on their work/book...?
Butcher is very down to earth and genuinely nice, I liked him. He has a great sense of humor and seemed to enjoy hanging out with the other writers at the convention.
Briggs I only met in passing, she seems pretty nice as well. I was sad when her husband passed away, he was very nice to all the volunteers at the convention.
Oh noooo I didn’t knew her husband died. This is so sad.
I guess I am more a reader only :-D I never met an author of one of my favourite books.
Mike was a neat guy, he was a chemist and did a great panel at MisCon about casting Silver bullets one year. A totally smart and sweet guy. Her assistant Ann is really nice too, I talked to her about the art auction a little this year as she used to buy lots of art years ago and I am certain that she has more fantasy art than anyone else I know.
Remind me next May and I will try to get you something signed!
