Now Look What You’ve Done
Apropos of my post yesterday: Yep, that’s about the shape of it. (also, Sinister Cat an awesome comic and you should read it all the time.)
What Rachel Moss Did
This past weekend I was in Wisconsin for the WisCon convention. I have a lot of posts to write about that, including some ruminations on panels and some stuff about POC at WisCon. But this post is about something that happened during the convention that
