I found my sales, etc, to be pretty much in line with how they always are...Every year (both at SPX and Heroes, my two biggest shows) seems to improve just a smidge, so I suppose as long as that keeps happening, I've got nothing to complain about!

The absurdist humor, the deliberate ambiguity regarding the real fate of that third overland hiker, and the sense of the calculus of life and death involved really impressed me. Nice work, and thanks much! I bought Midnight Sun from you at SPX, and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it.

And, definitely oops on the Scott Morse thing, which I've now corrected. At least I don't confuse J. Chris Campbell with that "Gen 13" guy. Nice seeing you as well... -B.

Like I said, I have to get use to the new you (sans glasses). Good seeing you at the show. I love your charts! I think a big part of a successful SPX is having new product, and as you pointed out, our schedule was such that we didn't. I hope to fix that in coming years. Those preview books were by Scott Morse, not Mills, though. Not the first time their names have been switched. ;) Ben! Like I said, I have to get use to the new you (sans glasses).
