Feynman: At an airport bookstore?!
It really did happen, thanks to Compass at SFO! And, of course, Hark! A Vagrant. Thanks for the tip, Wow Cool!

Two videos, one related to last year’s book (Feynman, with Leland Myrick) and one related to the upcoming Imitation Game (with Leland Purvis).
2nd Draft = 1st Draft – 10%
Stephen King calls that The Formula in his excellent book titled On Writing. The first draft of my first attempt at long form writing is 43,838 words, so if I do what Mr. King says, I’ll have a novella (prose! fiction!) starring the character I get asked about the most often at comics conventions.
Whether it will remain at 39,454.2 words after additional and inevitable rewrites is a mystery to me. But for now, I’m happy that I got this far, and wonder what it will look like to me after it stews in its own juices for six weeks or so…
