Hi there—this is Chris Claremont. I was supposed to be a featured guest at PopConMe in Dubai this coming weekend. I was really looking forward to this trip— traveling somewhere I’d never been, making *lots* of new friends and having a wonderful time. Sadly, due to last-minute complications totally beyond my control, that won’t be happening. To my fans, especially those in the Middle East, my regrets. Let’s hope for another time.
