In these uncertain times when politics and financial woes dominate the energy around us, there is one sure and positive thing, at least in my life, that brings a short break from all the chaos; MidSouth Con. This is a place, no matter where the venue, where I have found people who share my interest and I feel at ease. MidSouth Con is a place where for one weekend reality melts away and the world outside ceases to exist. Yes, another fabulous weekend at MidSouth Con has gone by and I grudgingly bring myself back to work. However, all is not lost for though MidSouth is passed and I have to wait a whole year until it returns, I have been reset. The inspirational juices are flowing and the synergy surges through me as I look forward to new projects and old projects seen in a new light. I thank you once again to all the staff at MidSouth Con for the invigoration and the borrowing of your lifeline for the recharging of my own. Also I would like to say, that being a guest this year has offered me the opportunity to give back a little as well and in turn offer up some of the wisdom I have gleaned off others over the years to those who seek the knowledge as I once did. I also would like to thank my esteemed colleagues for their offerings as well for I have learned from them and as always treasure every piece of valued information they give me. To the honored guests who graced MidSouth with their treasures of knowledge and beautiful faces as well as personalities, I thank you and beg your forgiveness if I personally was unaware of your status or brilliant works. My only defense in my ignorance is that "I am only an egg." To my new friends, I thank you for the honor to have met you and to be allowed to call you friend for I feel one can never have too many. To my fans and those who enjoy my stories, I thank you as well with all my heart for your support and kind words for it is you who inspire me as well. Alas I now turn away and go into the world for another year but I leave you with one last thought, "LONG LIVE MOOSE AND SQUIRREL! Oh and CARL!"Buy The Book
