Well Hello There!





So I'm back in Brooklyn after a week in Georgia. I had a fabulous time at the Decatur Book Festival. The highlight? Meeting blog regular EQ! Thanks so much for coming, EQ. You're every bit as dangerous as I expected you to be!

(By the way, I'll post a full list of my trips soon. And yes, I will be in Chicago in the near future!)

Now back to business. I've been meaning to post about the ring shown above. It was made from a copy of Sherlock Holmes! (Not sure which book, though.) Artist Jeremy May has been fashioning rings from a wide range of classic novels. (See them here.) Now if only I could get my hands on a Kiki Strike ring. (Which should come with a secret compartment for hiding poisons, small documents, or Liquid Roadkill.)

  5. Looks a bit bulky, but you gotta love secret compartments. Who do we request it from? The publishers? I bet we could get them to do something like that (or something else cool) if they thought it would help the publicity of bk 3 when it comes out.

    ...Of course, we could always resort to blackmail. I'm sure publishers have juicy secrets just like anyone else.

  10. Speaking of Sherlock Holmes, today my friends and I had an idea for a a kiddy TV show version of the stories, and the catch phrase of this juvenile equivalent would be "it's elementary school, my dear Watson" :)

  13. MushroomCloud: YES. I HATE how Sherlock is an addict, he's supposed to be so awesome--he's so smart and yet dumb enough to get hooked on opium... :'-(

    Anonymus: by who? (/what) How do you know? And who needs Ghostbusters when you've got Irregulars?

  16. They should make ones from shows. Except with necklaces. Like that glowing-magic-heart-necklace from Wizards of Waverly Place. Check out my blog all about the show at luvwowp.blogspot.com!
