Hello, my dears!

Welcome to Week #3 of Note-o-Rama, in which I step away from page updates to work on future book design and to catch up on the Notes Section. I you haven’t been a reader of the Notes before, now is a great time to start! This week I’m covering pages 260-269, in which I get to refer you to points of interest relating to bucket technology, sub-dialects of Carpathian Romani, why “Little Flea” isn’t an insult, why “Dog” is, and more.

In the rest of the world: if you’re in the NY area, you’re probably gearing up to visit the New York City Comic-Con! I won’t be there but many of my wonderful colleagues will. Let Gary Tyrrell be your guide through this regional monstrosity, revealing to you only the gems most worthy of notice.
