I almost thought about mentioning the forums but wasn’t sure if it would be a positive memory or not, haha

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 2d

I’m so sorry.

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 2d

YES let’s make this happen

Met Matt Stover twenty years ago at Celebration III and told him how much I loved his Caine books and I got to recreate that moment today commemorating the ROTS Anniversary Edition at NYCC.

So excited to see what new kinds of stories and voices we’ll get to explore in those genre initiative! What a great concept.

I too am curious about this cheese castle and must know what it is

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 2d

I’m excited about this initiative. I love SW exploring new genres and trying new things. Starting with romance novel feels right, given how much romance DNA is already in YA.

First novel in Star Wars genre fiction initiative. A YA romance novel to lead off! A daughter of a ship’s captain falling for a stowaway.

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 2d

I’ll be at the panel later!

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 2d

Look who’s writing it and co-starring! Ahmed Best himself! Comic’s plot derives from Jar Jar investing Palpatine with emergency powers AND with Jar Jar’s role developing the Rebel Alliance 👀

Jar jar comic!

Its been a few years since I’ve attended a game here — and that was regular season, not playoff

Observing some local customs.

I remember when they found this! It was very cool getting to see it on display in Rome almost a decade ago now along with the various hypothetical sketches of what it might’ve looked like originally.

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 13d

Ok that NJO sticker is really cute. Not sure what I’d do with it, but it’s neat.

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 17d

Oh my god, the bug type pokemon are fighting

Jay @admiraljello.bsky.social · 17d

It’ll be release date before we know it! But I know what you mean. This one is special.
