Only Esau’s mother, Gabrielle Lopez, felt something was wrong. She was pushing hard, but her son would not be born. “Can you help [him] out?” she asked, as Esau crowned. “Baby is coming,” the friend replied. Four minutes later, Lopez asked again, “Can you grab [him]?” Another friend murmured, “Baby is safe.” Six minutes passed. Again, Lopez asked, “Can you grab [him]?” Continue reading...

US cinema was given the gift of Hugh Jackman because Tom Cruise is an enormous asshole who toxic masculinity’d Dougray Scott into breaking his ankle mere weeks before X-Men production was due to start and they had to recast Wolverine in a hurry.

Making friends with your neighbors is SUCH an important and easy way to make every con dramatically better. Not only is it automagically someone you can trust to keep an eye on things when you have to step away, you can absolutely make cross-promo friends for life.
The biggest lessons I learned about tabling at cons:
* bring more books than you think you need (I brought 68 and sold out in 2 days; wish I'd brought 100!)
* have signage that starts conversations
* have freebies to get people closer
* have pitches ready
* make friends with your booth neighbors

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.
So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”
