Comic Con 2012 Report from the Author-Side ~ Thursday

Up, bit of a swim, bit of a hot tub, half a marvelous egg white omelet, two cups of tea, and attired in my specially acquired cream & blue day dress I hit the ground running. Ok, this is me ~ so I was more tottering along slowly absorbed by the madness of the crowds. […]

Comic Con 2012 Report from the Author-Side ~ Weds

The start of the crazy. Arriving on Weds was a good idea, as we came in to town before the real madness began. Being a Special Guest was even better. We (the AB and I) were met at the airport by GRT in a purple shirt. Easy to identify. Too easy as it turns out, […]

Gail Carriger Swans Around Nottingham

I was at school at Nottingham Uni over a decade ago. I lived in the international dorm on the MBA campus for a little under two years working on my MSc (an MS for us USA folk) in Archaeological Materials. Returning gave me an inexplicable feeling of warmth. I’d missed the old city. This was […]

Gail Carriger’s Drink, Shop & Do’s in London

Things Gail Carriger Does Upon Visiting the UK
