Hey! Did you know comixology is having a Red Sonja sale today?!

I do! I bought some stuff myself!

bethama:

So not to enable people or anything, but Gail Simone’s entire run on Red Sonja is currently 0.99 an issue on Comixology.

And the first volume of Kelly Sue DeConnick’s Captain Marvel is 3.99.

And Bendis’ Ultimate Collection for Daredevil is on sale for 9.99 even.

And basically EVERY ISSUE OF BATMAN EVER is 0.99 each.

…why yes, I did just discover Comixology and it is ruining my life, thank you. Thank you.

I am buyin’ stuff!

Do you ever think you could ever find yourself doing some sort of signing visit in England? I'm quite the fan, and I can think of no other writer I'd rather have the signature of

I have been to the UK a bunch of times in the last two years!

Thank you for the kind words, no England trips planned for a bit.

Started making The Movement as well.  Heres Virtue and Burden so far.

I cannot tell you how happy this makes me.

Thank You Again

It means a lot to my family, how kind people on social networks have been about the assault on my son.

We heard from the arresting officer, apparently not much happens during the holidays, but they are taking this seriously, and they are now aware that we intend to pursue this to the very end. We know the name of the attacker, the local paper ran a story (where they did not mention my son’s name, thankfully, but they did get his age wrong by ten years for some reason) and showed a photo of the guy. 

We will absolutely do our best to make sure this man doesn’t do this to anyone else. 

We have our son home for a few days. It’s going to be family, food, games, and movies. I frankly plan on spoiling him rotten.

There’s a special kind of anger when someone messes with your child. But we are also filled with the remarkable relief that it didn’t go as badly as it could have, and that Cody was able to stop this guy from causing more damage.  We always think of the things we are grateful for on this day, and I can’t remember ever being MORE grateful about anything than that our son is safe and healthy and home with us. 

But way, way up there too is gratitude for all the kindnesses we have repeatedly been shown when a bad day happens, sometimes you people are more understanding than even some family and friends.

I wish all of you the best possible day, sincerely.

Thank you.

shout out to everyone who doesn’t have a super identity-supportive family to be around this thanksgiving. shout out to everyone who’s going to have to endure a day of incorrect pronouns, birth name usage, heternormativity, and cisnormativity. i love you. please take care of yourself.

heeey so look, you've been through a lot lately, but in your recent post abt your son's attack, there's a line that reflects very poorly on you: "I don’t blame him, I guess, but ugh." ppl react to stress in different ways and for a number of reasons. maybe

Yikes.
