...tabletop RPG by Michael Stackpole that used a variant of the T&T rules.

are you familiar with the classic Zahn/Stackpole Legends novella, "Interlude at Darkknell," about (inter alia), the radicalization of Senator Garm Bel Iblis?

X-Wing Dickhead is a character archetype in Star Wars. Everyone thank Stackpole and Allston.

Michael Stackpole and Matt Stover introduced me to the Nero Wolfe books. I now own all of them and reread them fairly regularly. Each book is a time capsule, as the series spans 40 years in which the world changes drastically, but the main cast doesn't. It's like a longitudinal sociology study.
Started watching The Nero Wolfe Mysteries, a 2001 A&E TV version starring Maury Chaykin and Timothy Hutton. It's good! I love period TV.

Thing I have learned so far: everyone wearing hats made it easier to pretend to be someone else.

Me and my conflicting Legends fanfic projects:

Want to write a fic focusing on the Horn/Halcyon family based on Zahn, Stackpole and Allston’s concept for Triple Threat…

Want to write a fic about the Bpfasshi dark Jedi uprising…

Want to write a fic about Jori Daragon…

Fuck you brain!

With the Oscar she won for Suspicion. An unusually pensive mood at such a triumphant moment.

oh actually that reminds me that the best one is my friend Jillian's theory about Portrait of a Lady -- that at the end, Henrietta Stackpole is hiding Isabel inside the house

Well, how could you not?
For others: read @michaelastackpole.bsky.social 's Kell Hounds Ascendant, the brothers Kell are a fun ride while they set themselves up. And the stories don't require you to know that much before you get started.

Some Erb lore is that I probably read 20 Michael Stackpole novels as a youth
Say what you will about Pete Hegseth's speech before the Flag Officers at the Pentagon...

...But I, for one, found it a resource I will continue to mine when writing up crazy-pants oligarchs, dictators, nobles and the Odd IlKhan for the foreseeable future in the BattleTech universe.

Order: Go read the X-Wing novels by Michael A. Stackpole instead of reading my posts!

Query: Who even needs kids when you can have the complete X-Wing novels series?😊😊

I have a fairly light schedule at FanX SLC this weekend (starting today), but dropping in to do some panels and signings. And I've been given permission to drop some really big (at least cool) news on the Saturday BattleTech panel.
