Wise Words From Warren Ellis
Upset with Doktor Sleepless # 4's decompressed story-telling and price point, one of our Union Station customers thought he would let Warren Ellis know his thoughts on the book.
Warren got the message and this was his response mere hours later:
It's a crucial chapter -- the next several chapters turn on the axis of that chapter. But if you just didn't like it, that's fine too. I don't work out a plot-to-money ratio on my books, a chapter is a chapter.
Nice to know Warren is still keeping it real. Still, you can't help but wonder if he could get books out on time if he didn't spend his days responding to every critique.

I've never heard a writer make a better argument for why its better to wait for the trade.

The Warren Ellis you've a picture of here is the manic Australian violinist, not the writer.
