jeriendhalGod help me....
Anyway, my good friend and talented artist Naziha Zahed is drawing tribute pictures to all of her friends who have touched her in her life. Here's what she had to draw and say about me.
Link to original.
Thank you for being perhaps one of the kindest, funniest and sweetest dirty-old-men I've ever met. :XD: And I say that with much fondness. Jokes aside, we've had many intellectual conversations over the years. I always forget you're old enough to be my dad, but then, a solid friendship has no age barrier, does it? One of the many lessons I've picked up off you was the importance of research. You've never skimped on getting your facts straight or drawing inspiration from actual cultures, even going so far as to seek out those who either are more knowledgeable than you, or better yet, live the cultures you're researching. It's a step far beyond what I've seen of other internet writers (at least those I've actually read works by). And I dearly wish more readers would recognize that in your work as much as I do and appreciate it.
May your interstellar stories reach far beyond the known galaxies, old man. And may you never be too old to write them.
