Kieron Gillen, DIESEL SWEETIES At Whitechapel
On my message board Whitechapel, Kieron Gillen (writer of PHONOGRAM. S.W.O.R.D. and THOR) and R Stevens (creator of DIESEL SWEETIES and the best t-shirts and socks on the internets) are both doing open Q&A/conversation sessions.
The Kieron Gillen Week, and The R Stevens Diesel Sweeties UFO Shack.
Go and say hello to them.

From Brandon's latest blog entry. I warn you: Brandon's blog entries are one of the greatest things on the comics internet, but each one is nine feet long and very graphics-intensive.
Received Goods 7dec09
I am completely failing to keep track of the volume of stuff entering my house lately. I think I've even lost the last issue of THE WIRE, still sealed in its plastic bag. So I'm making Received Goods its own category, in an effort to force myself to at least log the physical objects being shoved through the door most days.

T-Shirt Of The Week #007: I ATE THE BABY

Twitter: The Grease Trap Of The Human Meat Computer
For a while, I had a capture of my twitter feed running here. It ended up doing something weird to my API calls, stopping me from running my desktop client, so I killed it. Which is probably just as well, as I talk a lot of shit on Twitter. It's basically mental slurry, the wet lumpy bits from a day spent at the keyboard vented off into a trap so the buildup doesn't blow some crucial valve in my head. Look at these, from the last month:

Did You Want SHIVERING SANDS Before Xmas?
Did you want a print copy of SHIVERING SANDS before Xmas?
Here's Lulu's shipping guide,which helpfully points out the dates you need to order by in order to receive a copy before that hated day.
There is still time.
