A Hiatus…

An update. The shortish-hiatus is now a regular sized hiatus. I have been knocked for a loop recently with what I’m guessing was a spider bite. Without going into too much detail, there was leg-swelling, pain, some nausea and dizziness, and a lot sleeping more than I have per day in about… well, I can’t honestly remember when I slept this much. It made for less than productive time.

Right now, I’m still recovering. Pain is gone, and swelling is down… ish. All other symptoms are gone, too, praise God and His Infinite Mercy.

I am trying to get things back up and running. Thanks for your patience.

There is a very interesting back and forth going on over at the DC Comics Message boards… and it has been going on since last September.

I’ve read a lot of creator blogs and message boards over the years, but this one with Dwayne McDuffie is maybe the best. All too often, these turn into snide comment or ego stroking threads, but, for the most part, this one has avoided that. Plus, Dwayne McDuffie is honest and doesn’t whine about decisions he has no control over. It is a nice change from the usual.

Of course, there is plenty he can’t talk about, but he is willing to share a lot. The thread is approaching 70 pages right now, which means there is plenty to read there.

So, I’ll cut this short! See you on Thursday!
