I do miss seeing her here.You've got my daughter confused with the leafy one's daughter, I'm afraid.
All the same, I'll pass on your best wishes to my daughter anyway. :)
Oops.
Still, please tell her I said hi.

I think TFY was referring to the notion that PMG might have to shut down this thread to preserve the site.
There would be a FaWTL 7, if that were the case.
I was not trying to insinuate that there will never be another Fawtl, It's just that this one has gone way past all the other incarnations.

Adding to the list of "Things I have learned from Kingmaker":
"If the unsocial, reclusive, nerdy character who would rather read a book or play with building blocks than go adventuring suddenly stops hearing from their one most favorite relative, expect them to immediately launch an inquisition, come hell or high water, plot planned beforehand be damned."

So does this mean as someone who is 5'11" and change that I'm doomed as an author? =P
I've got the first two books in the series and am really enjoying "Final Empire", which got left behind by an ex-roommate when he moved out. Yay used bookstores, but the ONLY Sanderson book they had in the whole store was "Well of Ascension". So needed to B&N to finish the series.

Met Brandon Sanderson at Comic Con a few years ago. Like all authors, he seems to be quite short.
FHDM said nothing about them being good authors.
Also, while Andrzej Sapkowski (author of Witcher book series) isn't tall, the second Polish most popular fantasy writer of 90s/early 2000s, Feliks Kres, was quite tall as are a few other popular Polish fantasy writers.

It might have just been rubbing alcohol. That is pretty much what it tasted like.

I feel slightly better.
According to Google, George R. R. Martin is 5'6". I'm not sure how I feel about Google having that as one of it's auto-pop-up answer things.

My cold has cleared up. It was short lived. I am glad, because I have a Toreador Song to sing tomorrow.Ahem:

{dons Fisher Price stethoscope} Clearly, your body's alcohol deficiency had weakened your immune system. Alcohol also disinfects your insides. I prescribe regular intervals of drinking, with at least once weekly supplements of bacon, BonChon chicken, and bubble tea (although not necessarily all at the same meal).
You can pay my assistant in Newcastle Brown or Guinness on the way out.
