Wow, guys, thanks for all your answers on what Nathaniel should use as a pet name for Anita. I've skimmed them, but truly reading nearly 1,500 comments may have to wait until after I finish copy edits. *laughs* Seriously, overwhelmed by your enthusasim and how much you love my imaginary friends. A few of you suggested that Nathaniel wouldn't have a pet name for Anita & since nothing has worked, I'm going with that for this book. I'll look over your suggestions & post my thoughts later. We can use the nickname in a later book, if I find one I lke.

I will be at St. Louis ComiCon this Saturday only. Not only will I be doing a Q & A, but I thought I might read from first chapter of Affliction either before, or after some questions. I can't remember the last time I read at a con, but I thought you guys might enjoy it. Also, we are looking for an artist to help us do Lunatic Cafe as a graphic novel. Before someone asks, Brett Booth is currently under contract at DC, so we can't use him, but him being unaviable means some other artist has a chance to come play. Show Jon & I your samples, and be as serious about your deadlines as I am about mine, and lets do this.

...and be as serious about your deadlines as I am about mine...

I, like everyone else here, lost it right there. Good show, LKH. For a second there, you had me going.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm sure there will be plenty of artists going around ComiCon, but those of them that are worth their salt will have their own booths and will not be touching your tripe with a 39-and-a-half-foot pole.

Well, shit. I'll be in St. Louis this Saturday and Sunday. I wish I could afford ComiCon. Oh well, not interested in going if LKH is one of the big names there...

*looks at the site*

Oh SHIT. Now I REALLY wish I could afford it. Cries. Maybe next year... because wow. I'm kind of starstruck by those names.

Yeah, my friend writes webcomic, and it's just small time stuff, but even he and his colorist have a booth this weekend. I was thinking of going but it's Palm Sunday weekend and work is going to be insane for the next week and a half.

I want to go, but I'm broke. My cousin is getting confirmed on Sunday, so she's having a party after.

Ah, well. I have other things to look forward to.

Oh yeah, confirmation Sunday! Sooo many confirmation cakes at my bakery. My mom and I are going to church Saturday night so we don't have to sit through the Confirmation service on Sunday since we have a lot of confirmands at our church...

I'm broke as well anyway so I'll be sitting at home catching up on TV shows.

Ugh... I'm just hoping that there aren't so many confirmands in her class. I honestly wouldn't even be going to church if my parents weren't demanding it of me, and if it wasn't her confirmation. I've grown up Lutheran, with extremely conservative, right-wing parents who practically forced the Bible/Christianity/doctrine/religion down my throat from birth. So it's gotten to the point I'm agnostic with Lutheran leanings. And just don't want to go to church ever. Also I'd rather see my long-distance boyfriend.

I will be attending Confirmation service, then my cousin's party. And then lying to my parents about where I'm spending the night, even though I'm 23 and not 15, so I can see said LDR.
