Hello once again, Greg! Thanx for answering all of our questions. I've
gotta couple more for you: 1) How did you decide on what Puck was going to
look? (the white hair, his clothes, etc.) 2) Or how any of the other
tricksters for that matter? (i.e., Coyote, Anansai, etc.) 3) Didja have
any more plans for Anubis? What were they? 4) You gave a response to a
question a long time ago that said to the effect that you would probably
not write the Encyclopedia because there would most likely not be a
publisher. In the latest response section you said that you would determine
the timeline for the series when you wrote the rest of the Encyclopedia.
Did you find a publisher?! Thanx again for your time.

1. I had some imput, but the real credit should go to my partner Frank Paur
who oversaw design for the series. (And of course to whoever designed the
character for "The Mirror". I'd guess that was Greg Guler, but I'm honestly
not sure anymore.)
2. I knew I wanted Coyote to be reminiscent of both James Dean and a young
Peter Maza. Anansi was going to be a giant spider, so that was easy. Raven
had many forms, dictated by the script. Credit for how they actually looked
should go to Frank (and producer Dennis Woodyard and our designers).
3. Sure. But I'm not telling now.
4. I never said I wouldn't write it. In fact, I've almost finished writing
it, but I doubt I'll be able to find a publisher, which is what I said.
