A paraphrased conversation with Howard

Howard calling me while driving from the Mall to Dragon’s Keep: “I just had a moment of insight. Sometimes I call you because I’m bored and I don’t want to listen to the radio.”
Me: “You just now figured that out? I figured it out years ago when you always called me at conventions while you were headed to or from your hotel room.”
Howard: “Yeah. I just figured it out. You don’t mind?”
Me: “No. I suppose I could be offended that you only call me because you’re bored. Instead I choose to be glad that when you’re bored you want to talk to me.”

Garden Ninja takes on Mistborn

My friend Janci and her husband Drew have launched a new line of miniatures based on the Mistborn books by Brandon Sanderson. I got to see these little minis in all sorts of stages of development and I’m very impressed with the sculpting job that Drew did. Drew also did all the painting in that picture. His paint jobs are professional quality, because he is a professional who can be hired to do commission paint jobs on any mini the customer provides. The Misborn minis are available in Ready-to-paint, Finished Pewter, and Hand Painted varieties.

If you’re a fan of Miniatures, you should go take a look at Garden Ninja Painting Studio.
