Dear Authors...
I present first this comic.
Then I point out that the fantasy novel I'm currently reading has 300 pages of young-adult prose, and 100 pages of glossary/encyclopaedia/appendices. Not even the vaguely dickensian setting is enough to fully redeem it.
ALSO: if your monsters are 'bogles', do not have your protagonist 'boggle' while talking about them.

In other news, I somehow got my story for x2009 done in the nick of time.
And the CLAMP in 3-D land series 7 figures arrived. Will photograph them at some point.
