Confirming Wizard World Chicago Appearance
From David Mack:
	Yes! I figure this is about a month in advance, so close enough for people to be thinking about attending the show and sounding off about being there. Info about the convention here with the link to the Wizard site where they recently announced me on the guest list: WizardWorld.com I'll have all kinds of stuff at this show. More than I've been able to take to any other show this year: -Original art work -11x17 prints -The new Kabuki: The Alchemy hardcover! -The Shy Creatures kid's books! -The Alchemy of Art film on DVD! -and also, Kabuki T-shirts -Kabuki Action Figures -Kabuki Statues! -Kabuki life-size porcelain masks - All of the Kabuki trade paperbacks and hardcovers! (Including the Vol 1., which recently sold out of print!!!) -All of the Reflections art books! -And more! (I may even have The Daredevil / Echo trade paperback Vision Quest, which is out of print and hard to find) -Just let me know if you want me to bring anything in particular. So... Who from the boards will be in Chicago?

Permission Granted for Kabuki-Inspired Fan Shirts
When asked if fans can make their own Kabuki-inspired shirts, David Mack replied:
	Yeah, that's fine if you make shirts of Kabuki. I don't remember what image in the back of that book you mean, but, in general, I tend to be encouraged when I see personally made Kabuki-related T-shirts. Send a photo to DavidMackGuide.com if you like!

Reaction to Kabuki: The Alchemy
After reading that a fan experienced a mild panic attack while reading Kabuki: The Alchemy, David Mack wrote:
	Well, it was intended to not promote panic attacks so much as inspiration and motivation... But maybe if Chuck Palahniuk can write stories that make people pass out or vomit... I guess maybe I can live with books that promote panic attacks... but... Maybe that is just the beginning tickles of inspiration? Desperation is the mother of invention, right? More than neccesity, even.

Remembering John Keel
From David Mack:
	Rest in Peace John Keel. He died July 3. Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman was on Coast last night to say some words about him and their correspondence together.
