You get asked by the head of BuNine, who is *not* David Weber.

I understand it's a lot of work for essentially free. I think one guy at Honorcon mentioned that he'd been paid about $130 over 5 years or so. I'm not sure if that included expenses. I understand you do get access to lot of inside data on the Honorverse, but you also can't talk about it to anyone who isn't part of Bu9 or a limited set of other people who have licenses etc.

If you look at the back of House of Steel it lists who they are and what they bring to the table.

And when you read *my* bio, you definitely won't be impressed. :mrgreen:

Especially since I no longer work for that "entertainment provider".

Even more especially since I haven't worked *anywhere* since then. :shock:

Dammit!

He took a look and thought what I was doing was good enough (even though it was mostly wrong) to invite me. That will have been six years ago on the 23rd of this month. At the time, BuNine didn't have anybody doing 3D modeling for them, or if anyone was, it was very basic…

Well that sound cool. Good to meet you and…
