It Lives!!!!

Editor Charles Kochman teases me just before I go to join him at Comic-Con with photos of "The Last Mechanical Monster" in print! Hey, look, it's a real book! The first couple show the case--the hardcover beneath the paper dust jacket--and I especially love those big robot eyes because Karen thought of that. Charlie and I couldn't figure out what to do with the case and Karen said, "How about a big robot eye?" And that's what we did. An angry red eye on one side and a happy green eye on the other. Can't wait to hold it in my hands someday soon.
