Magic, obviously.

A reminder that the FantasyCon banquet early bird tickets end on Friday. If you're coming and thinking of attending now's the time to buy. it's always a great time of celebrating the best of British genre fiction. Much recommend.

Hanging out with some of my faves for this one, really looking forward to it. AND, you can be one of the first folk to get a special embossed copy of The Shipwright and the Shroudweaver.

Absolutely. It is a most excellent word. Spread it far and wide.
