Previously I had linked to your blog through Peter David’s website, but when that link disappeared, I kind of lost touch with you for a while. I’m going to try to be more “with it” from now on.

I was very pleased to learn of the good news in terms of writing projects that you posted lately. I’ve already ordered my copy of your IRON MAN novel from the latest PREVIEWS and look forward to reading it. And, having found your Batman Encyclopedia fascinating, I am much looking forward to seeing the Superman volume, though I am saddened by Marty Pasko (whose work I have also long admired) pulling out of the project. Whatever his reasons, I wish him well.

I was also intrigued to learn that you have an article coming up in BACK ISSUE about the Secret Society of Super-Villains…a personal big favorite of mine. In fact, the longest fanfic I’ve ever done was to re-write all the SSOSV stories that had seen print up to then (this was before IDENTITY CRISIS) and adjust them for post-COIE continuity, as well as filling in assorted blanks and tying up loose ends. I had a lot of fun doing it, and everyone I’ve ever showed it to has been impressed. I look forward to seeing that article as well.

Hope all is well with you and your family as we head into Spring 2009!
