When my husband and I went to Scarborough Faire last weekend I was very startled when passing the bookstore to see Conner standing inside and a table covered with Peter's books. I had no idea that was was going to be doing a signing that day. I also didn't realize that the first comic was out, so it really made my day to get it signed and talk a little with Peter and Conner.
What I didn't like hearing though was that Peter was declined as a guest at Dragon*Con this year. They gave Conner some kind of form letter simply stating that Peter didn't fit with what they were trying to do. WTF? I've only been to Dragon*Con twice but both times I've been there and Peter did a book reading every seat was filled and people were standing against the walls. Plus people from several different tracks have requested Peter be on their board, not realizing that Peter isn't even going to be there. I really don't get it, and it kinda pisses me off. I figured this would be one of the few places that I could rant a bit and you all would understand.
