@deanrlomax.bsky.social @bobnichollsart.bsky.social I got it!

Great talk by @deanrlomax.bsky.social and @bobnichollsart.bsky.social at the @morethanadodo.bsky.social last night. Was a bit outfaced by the queue for signing but got to have a wander round and look at the wonderful collection.

Well, this is going to be fun. www.thesharon.com/event.php?id...

review: sharply focused on fossils offering direct evidence of behavior such as predation/reproduction ... Lomax employs a nicely conversational tone ... enhanced by Bob Nicholls' artist renditions that bring the text’s stories to life fantasyliterature.com/reviews/the-... @deanrlomax.bsky.social
