Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Yea, where are those people. My foot is getting really sore from all this impatient tapping. If they don't come along soon I'll get RSI.

Re: Smarch Joint Writingness Project.

Just wanted to let you know I am writing...but with the silliness in my head due to flue-stuff, it's taking just a bit longer than normal....

Sorry...

Re: Smarch Joint Writingness Project.

I'm still working on it, but the haze in my head is not helping...so if anyone wants to pitch in a section 6...I'll take the 7th!!!
