Did I ever tell you how amazing you are?
I just noticed that the message on Harry's gravestone is different: instead of saying "He died doing the right thing," it says "He saved the world. A lot." Fantastic Buffy the Vampire Slayer reference!!!!
It was Mickey's idea. The front page graphic on Jim-Butcher.com was mine, however... :D
Oh god. That banner.
Oh god.

Shorter response: AWESOME. ;D
Longer response: Does anyone else want to see shirtless!Billy? Come on. I can't be the only one! ;D
You want to see him NOW. This is his first appearance, before he turned into Sexy Fireplug Man.
Note: There is one segment of data in there that is, in fact, true.

That's the stuff thad didn't make it in for space considerations.
Shecky and I are still mourning the stuff that didn't make it for taste considerations.
;D
BTW, when I ran Li'l Harry Adventures by Jim yesterday, he called it "magnificently horrible" and "omg HIDEOUS."
Myworkfinal mental degeneration here is done!

You know, if Jim actually wrote some short stories in theseries, I'd actually read it. I think that could be a real laugh!(click to show/hide)
PAGES and PAGES of it.
Such as MURPHY'S LAW, a 1-shot comic detailing the romance between Kincaid, Murphy, and the LAW rocket he brought her instead of chocolates & flowers.
And let us not forget the. *shudder*(click to show/hide)
That's part of the joke, though. 99% of the stuff that made Harry Harry hadn't happened yet when he was 8. :D
Er, I have to disagree. He had lost both his parents by that time, and that counts for more than 1% of what he is now. Of course, he wasn't a wizard yet (but he had a fairy godmother). That is the part of the story that I'm dying to know. Who took care of newly born Harry until his father arrives? Hospital crew? Or he was born in a lonely place, only with Lea asisting Maggie? And then, when did Harry find about Lea? And Changes spoiler:And has Thomas ever found about him when Harry was a child and Thomas a new vampire?(click to show/hide)
Also, I NEED to have Thomas in one of the later books described as wearing an irridescent sparkly tracksuit.
Isn't he slated to be played by Tom Cruise?
Ok Let me get this straight are we are leaving the book universe and going back to the TV universe? Because it the Book universe I love! Yes i found Jim Butcher by watching the TV show, but once I read the Books everything changed! Harry became real to me and i fell in love with the book universe. Ok I have read every book at least three times... so why go backward I love Karrin Murphy as who she is in the books. Really how can he keep a hat on all the time? Just put me down as a purest.

What I want to see is the responses of people who took this seriously. That would be a hoot.
I'm saving all the outraged emails for whenever I need a pick-me-up. :D

As funny as that would be, it would be a violation of their privacy. No can do! :D
NICE!!!
We do NOT support practical jokes! Practical jokes diminish us all by making light of honesty! Practical jokes are not fun; they are demeaning to us all!
We enjoy hearing updates from your emails about Jim Butcher & Harry Dresden!

Okay, I will post ONE piece of hate mail, because I laughed so loudly I hurt something. I'm still not completely convinced the person wasn't joking:
Point of Interest #1: They are on an announcement list for a FANTASY AUTHOR. Does fiction make light of honesty, too? I mean, do we have conclusive evidence that polka will never die? Doesn't that diminish the realm of physics, which teaches us that our sun will die in 5 billion years and swallow up Mercury, Venus, and Earth, and likely polka with them?
Point of Interest #2: The announcement list is a FREE SERVICE. It's no skin off my nose if someone unsubscribes. The only loser is the unsubscriber, who now has to get information about book releases and other exciting stuff second or third or fourthhand.
See, that's the type of thing I'd write as a satirical wink and nod of appreciation at a good Gotcha. Or in an off the cuff satire of someone who really was offended.

I wouldn't rank us above Scalzi's fake book, because I was laughing so hard I was in tears and ended up having to read the first massive paragraph to my coworkers so they would stop looking at me like I was crazy, but I appreciate the recognition!

I just wish they'd give you, Mickey and Fred the credit you deserve. And I still think a faux book 14, Cold Cash, would've rocked. :D
