He certainly seems that way! But, it's okay -- that's nothing to be sorry for. Essek isn't really part of the Mighty Nein anyway.
We're coming up to convention season and I am planning on appearing at a number of them. I do signings and a lot of times people bring books, but I also like to have some extras to sign, like art. I was wondering if I were to give you some detailed physical descriptions of the characters in my books, if you might be willing to draw a couple of things? I have pretty comprehensive descriptions of all of them and some concept art, if that would help. But really, it would be whatever might inspire you.
