1. Oh crap!

RIP Yang, you'll be missed. I no longer do SCA, but did once upon a time.

My son is going to be sad, he recently discovered the Myth Adventure series. :(

2. Oh, damn. This will be much talked about at Pennsic this year
In the last decade or so I really I lost the taste for his writing style, but there's no denying his place in things.

4. Damn. I really enjoyed the Myth-adventures tales as a kid
Especially the graphic novel adaptation he did with Phil Foglio - perfect!
