I have fond memories of “I’m Bored”. I bought it for my nephew, who’s now 16. It’s still a great book!

I’m excited to try it out! The new dragons are really beautiful, and the pass-on-draft mechanism reminds me a bit of Terra Mystica and Res Arcana.

I’m excited by boardgames like Wingspan where I don’t know who will win until the very end of the game. I’m less excited by games where I can clearly see who’s winning mid-game (like a racing game). If it’s clear I’m losing and I don’t feel like I can be competitive, I lose interest.

I remember Carleton proudly shared this story in their promotional material when I went there in the early 2000’s. I also loved seeing the bust of Schiller get stolen again and again.

I just finished reading this story from the Hugo voters packet. I enjoyed the discussion of life in academia, the subtle fantastical elements, and the slowly escalating tension. It’s an excellent story.

Thank you. It’s one of my favorite songs from “Sushi and High Tea”. One more question: was your song “The Lady” based on a specific story? The song vaguely reminds me of “Interview with a Vampire”.

This song is a favorite of mine. I’m curious, which Ray Bradbury short story is it based on?
