Dinner with Joss Whedon for Auction

Stuff I like

How much would you bid (all proceeds to charity) to spend some quality face time with Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy, Angel, Firefly, and all things good and wondrous? If you'll be in San Diego for ComiCon, you've got a couple of weeks to mull.

Incidentally, I'm not sure I've ever said publicly how invaluable Joss's work has been for me, particularly in learning not to flinch or go defensively ironic in writing about Big Stuff like love and death, trying to not just intellectually but emotionally honest, even when those emotions are completely unexpected. To the extent that Trebekistan works in the hard parts, a lot of credit goes to the good airs of Whedonia. And then of course I was blown away when he actually blurbed the thing.

So. Dinner. Charity. You can bid starting next week on eBay. You are notified.
