Saw an interesting article in the latest Popular Science about reprograming the immune system. The example is going after type 1 diabetes. Not quite Vcids.
For everyone else, find a copy of Mr Hickmans ‘The Immortals’
Hi Mr. Hickman.
I love your Dragonlance books, especially those with Margaret Weis. I am writing my first book called the Ataxian Chronicles: Sheol’s phylactery.
I grew up with Dungeons and Dragons and love the characterizations. So I have three questions: When will the Dragonlance Chronicles Omnibus be available? Where is GenCon 2010 this year, if you know. And since you’ve played dungeons and dragons longer than me, how would a lich move in your opinion? I have liches in my book and I’m curious.
Thanks,
I’ll do my best with your questions, Francine;
(1) You would need to ask Wizards of the Coast about any Dragonlance Chronicles Omnibus as they hold the copyrights; (2) Gencon 2010 will be held in August in Indianapolis, Indiana — where I hope to meet all my friends and (3) I don’t know … slowly?
Thanks!
So I led a trip to GenCon 2009 with a bunch of my college buddies. Now every time I hear Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’ it takes me right back – because it reminds me of ‘Raistlin Mage,’ that wonderful parody from Killer Breakfast. Any chance that will ever find its way onto the internet?
Now that’s a good question! I didn’t make any videos of it other than the presentation video at the convention. Maybe I can do something for you with that!
11/26/55 was a good day to be born
Regarding the DeathGate Cycle, I am one who normally dreams in color. (Day dream or sleeping) The way in which you and Ms Weiss worded the books of the DGC made it very easy for me to close my eyes and place myself in the bowels of the machinery underground, or in the flying ships, the Labyrinth or even in the top of the trees. I had no problem geting into each book and staying lost in the worlds you two created.
It is amazing, when I put on my gloves, they look like fingers, when I type they magically transform into thumbs… big mushroom-like thumbs! LOL
FYI: I really enjoyed browsing your faith and family pages. It never ceases to amaze me how many questions can be answered with 13 simple statements. I hope your financial situation improves enough so that your ENTIRE family can afford to get new SHOES!
Great photo!
Have a great day,
Jay
Sorry for the previous illiterate typing, I tend to use all 10 thumbs while typing! LOL
I see you’ve discovered my own writing secret!
HI! First, loved the Death Gate Cycle. 2nd, I have not yet (and may not) seen the movie Avatar; however, when watching commercials on the movie, the creatures, humanoids, and mostly the floating land masses reminded me of mental pictures I had while reathing the DGC. Any chance you were calaborators on this, or is it possible you were plagerized (consciously or subconsciously.)
Well, since I got my initial inspiration for the floating islands from rock music album covers in the 1970′s, I guess I really shouldn’t complain. Actually, I loved ‘Avatar’, think it is a major cinematic achievement by Cameron and would actually be flattered if he found any kernel of inspiration from my work as part of that amazing experience. Thanks, however, for watching my back!
I wish! Since I got my inspiration for those floating lands from rock album covers in the 1970′s, I really have no right to complain. I found ‘Avatar’ a cinematic triumph on many levels, am a huge fan of the movie and with James Cameron only the best with his brilliant creation. If I have somehow even the smallest kernel of of inspiration to that amazing film, then I would be flattered indeed … but thanks for watching my back!
I was wondering do you have books in german? a friend wants to know also how many books total have and margaret weis written together?
That answer is … yes, we have most of our books available in German as well as many other languages around the globe. As to how many books total, I think a quick check of my bibliography should answer that question.
Just wondering if you ever wrote a book to in the bronze canticles seires ???
Absolutely … as soon as I get the website up and running you’ll be able to read all about it under my works with Laura Hickman.
