Do you need to have the anguished screams of your readers for nourishment, like plants need sunlight, or do you just enjoy them?
I think he needs them for nourishment but has become a gourmet connoisseur of the infinite variety of readerly pain and trauma. |

Is it possible that Harry will move to Kansas City after the events of Changes, sense you wanted him to be there in the first place?

 Corpsetaker was a psychotic, body-stealing, mind-penetrating, ghoul-enlisting, power-craving asshole, but he had a certain charm about him. |

Maybe it is..

Heh. The only way I'll ever be acknowledged in the text is if the first dwarf actually to be seen in the stories shows up and annoys the Creator; I've got a firm history of provoking long, exasperated explanations by Jim. |

He'd have a bolt of lightning hit the little bastard, then Sanya would shrug and say, "Sorry. This sort of thing just happens around me."

ROFLMAO!!! Don't give the devil any ideas. Let him work for it!  Why? The ideas he comes up with always end up cooler than the ones we make, anyway.  |

Hey a dwarf isn't out of the picture Harry mentions a Svartalf in Changes and I assume that is taken from Svartálfar, which translates to dark elf or black elf, but they possess many of what's considered to be dwarven attributes. I know of a couple of fantasy writers who use variation of the name Svartálfar to describe dwarves. Maybe we'll find out th craftsman was named Shec Kee. |

So, the Erlking, Eldest Brother Gruff and Harry Dresden walk into a bar. The world explodes from the awesome.

*Takes out my Blow horn.* WHEN IS THE DRAGON'S GOING TO STAGE ANOTHER COMEBACK? *Shuts off the blow horn and sits.* No but seriously. We get a glimpse of Ferrovax a Dragon in the Roman Legion armor in Grave Peril. I'm really curious your take on the Dragon's in Dresden's world.
