Movement on The Dinosaur Lords front! No, the Official Editorial Rewrite Notes still haven’t gotten here. The good news is that there is reason to believe they are about to. The bad news was I also got what I thought was reason to suspect the editor was going to ask me to make fundamental changes to the [...] So, having finally got my Exercise/Anti-Goathead Mat last weekend, I finally assayed the Turkish Getup in my backyard.
