I do believe I shall be purchasing it. I've been reading you're books for so long and I really can't even begin to tell you how much you're work has inspired and influenced me Billy. I ran across you're editing webpage recently as well and you will definitely be the person I ask to edit my manuscript when it's finished later this year. Even PAYING you to read something that I wrote would be like getting to hang out with you're childhood hero. By the way, I totally dig the new haircut!!

oh my - and i nearly missed this entry - Jeez...

oh crap, before i do - dumb question time (sorry);
can i get these through your web site or are you entirely ebay only??

edit: Grey's site has some awesome work on it the project portraits are just great - i wanted to leave a comment but since i pester you here enough as it is, how stalkery would it seem if i started dropping flattering at his place too? but yeah - frickin' A :))

edit edit; apologies.

Trust me, he'd LOVE comments.

I can't mass-produce the books on even a tiny scale, so they'll have to be eBay only for now (although I've done a couple of commissions, which were fun). Glad you like them!

righto - when i'm less insomnia addled i'll get onto that :)

and i appreciate the time/effort/industry that goes into making the blank books - i just relish the idea of them being around for longer than the ebay auction windows.
