Fuck it. ask me anything. If I get too uncomfortable I’ll just ask permission to answer via email or Telegram or something.

@Leucrotta What are your thoughts on digital art? I know you do a lot of pencil on paper, but do you ever tinker with pure digital?

@GraySpots Digital stuff is fucking amazing and I am waaay behind at it. Thing is if I take a sketchbook and pencils with me, I'm not worried about them getting stolen or dinged, and there's more area to work on than the tablets I own - that's why I keep doing analog stuff.

@Kusimanse Hamish.

My great grandfather apparently asked my parents on his death bed never to name a kid "Hermann." (You can imagine how happy he and his brother Adolph were when the obvious happened.) Apparently to Anglophile Jewish New Yorkers with no Scottish ancestry whatsoever, Hamish is an appropriate substitute. I've actually run into two other people with the name, a Scot and a Kiwi.

@Leucrotta I see, and that's a reasonable sort of request to make. (Even if, gender speaking, you're a her-mann. herm man. *kindest teasing*)

Hamish, hmm. *looks it up* Scot for Seamus. Which is a variant of James, neither of these things I new. :)

@Kusimanse nobody gets Hamish unless they’re Scots. When I was working Ren Faire, my group was technically English only, but I insisted that I could use the name, because fuck it, it’s my actual name.
