I’m mostly recovered from my first trip to Comic-Con this past weekend, and I’ve discovered that June is almost over, and I’ve only got one post for the month. This is my attempt to remedy that. Something fun that I got to do for Comic-Con was translate some of the trolley signs for San Diego… Continue reading Vaes Dothrak Vimithreri
