I haven't, yet! I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaay behind in my blog reading, and am only up to the 'C's in my Kidlit folder. :P
Anyway, I will skip ahead and read said posts RIGHT NOW! (Missed you at Kidlitcon! Maybe next year?)

That man is a goddamn transcendent genius.

Did you click through? Because there are more pictures at his site!
