Also, VERY anxious! I have to do my best networking, etc. (Plus I'm not prepared at all for Hotelpocolypse)

My current aggravation as a comic book writer (well, one of them):
Having various things being done but nothing quite ready for prime time (KS or pitching), so I have nothing really to promote or tease...yet.
(That might change come January...more info soon)

Jewish voices and stories belong in arts and entertainment and should not be silenced. Not by editorial, not by fellow creators and artists, not by anyone or anything.
And yes, that includes Zionist voices, not that these pig ignorant people know what Zionism ACTUALLY is.
