Geeklings, it has been a minute, hasn’t it? It’s too tempting to make an “anything new going on” joke when clearly there is a ton going on so I’m going to do my best to refrain.

I always get a little nervous when I put something out in the universe that depends on the involvement of others to get off the ground. When I came to you last week looking to create the first ever I Am Geek Mailbag, I had already written two columns in my head.

If I qualify, they are worthless.” If you’re like me, you have been waiting… And waiting… And waiting for George R.R. Martin’s “The Winds of Winter”.
