You’ll recall that Mo Ali did a great rendition of Mormeck, the living mountain (above) a couple of weeks ago. Now I’ve received two more awesome things: a great old-school interpretation of Doctor Mormeck by Noel Tanti and a cool version of Mormeck’s avatar, as komodo meeting with Pavlov, by Anne and Phil Barringer. Thanks very much! And keep them coming. It’s important that there be more art than less since in the process of writing I want to keep the characters in my mind’s eye fluid, not locked into any one particular expression of them. I’m flattered we already have three!

Mormeck entries will return next week, although expect them to be slow until after the Shared Worlds’ writing camp. I am coming up with new ideas, though, and scribbling them down.
