  2. Hah! I got several emails from a blog that wanted to promote the book and at the time they said it was a brave move. What was? A comic about gay aircrews. I pointed out what it was about and that it was NOT a comic. No gayness so I heard no more. Hope you are doing okay?

  3. Yeah. Basically. But still, gay balloonists in the early Victorian Age.... Now that would be a story ! Take it easy, Terry and good luck ! This summer looks like it's going to be brutal ! TTFN.
