    I got an email today that an image of a crab shell that I sold back in April is now in published form, in an EPIC FANTASY NOVEL:


    The book containing the map which uses your image as a partial rough base has now been released. The Way of Kings is an epic fantasy novel by Brandon Sanderson, and if you look on page 94, your crab picture was the basis for the map looking as if it was first scratched into a shell and then made into a charcoal rubbing.

    Very cool. Good excuse to go pick this book up.

  • The murder of nature upon your very soul

    What must it be like to have the murder of nature upon your very soul? To have sacrificed all the world’s creatures for your own kind, and thereby lost your souls more completely than by any evil magic?

  • The altar that was the shore at the end of time

    The god had been looking for a heart in the city, a heart that was worthy, a heart that knew true worship. And the god had found such a heart, and a voice that called upon Him without greed or demand, without wheedling or whining.

    The heart of the prophecy did Enlil find in the stable while the storm raged, upon the altar that was the shore at the end of time.

    But though the prophecy was fulfilled upon that moment, the humbling of the city had just begun.

    “City at the Edge of Time”, by Janet & Chris Morris, p189
