You will, as you read through them, see themes and ideas repeated, and explored from slightly different angles. The only talks I’ve given so far this year were all on the same day. I don’t get asked to talk too often, and the opportunities sometimes bunch together. Here in Britain, we had a children’s television show called Jackanory, which consisted of actors and writers reading books to camera, and my talks are presumably the immediately-pre-apocalyptic version of that. Or, perhaps more correctly, someone who sits down on a stage and talks, because it is sometimes the amusement of conference organisers to provide a large chair for me to read from, with the words it’s story time with Uncle Warren. I’m mostly a writer of graphic novels and comic books, sometimes a novelist and columnist, occasionally grist for the Hollywood mill, and, every now and then, someone who stands up on a stage and talks to rooms of people.
