Highlights of C.C. Signing

Cassandra Clare’s first novel was The Beautiful Cassandra, based on Jane Austin’s novel of the same name when she was a child. She didn’t know how to write romances, so she just killed the love interest with a falling boulder.

Simon is loosely based off both her best friend and boyfriend from highschool as they were both “brown-haired, slightly neurotic Jews who played Dungeons and Dragons”

Cassandra Clare used to have a wall that she put her notes on but it started to look like a crazy person’s wall, like Emma’s Wall of Crazy, so she took it down.

Will’s hatred of ducks comes from Cassie’s own experience where she and her friend accidentally fed duck pie to mallards in Hyde Park and upon realizing it, stopped, only for the ducks who had “aquired a taste for flesh” to chase them all around the park.

She isn’t sure if Kit hates ducks other not as he hasn’t seen any in the books yet.

She doesn’t know what the password for the LA Shadow Market is, she just knew she wanted Kit to flip them off.

Upon being asked why all warlocks seem to have tragic last names (i.e. Fell, Bane, Loss, etc) she said she didn’t notice they were tragic, she thought they sounded badass but now she’s sad and said she’ll have to name one Barnabas Sunshine.

Simon’s fate was PURPOSELY left out of Thule and it is important.

Her adult novels were picked up for a TV show/movie and she’s much more involved than she was for any TMI productions. (She was EXTREMELY professional in answering this question.)

She tends to start off with a scene in her head rather than a character and then goes from there.

When asked about fight scenes, she quoted; “Fight scenes are like love scenes, you always need to know where their hands are”

She used to make her friends help her choreograph her fight scenes because it was so hard. She says the hardest part for her is adding pockets of dialogue or “presence” of characters amid a fight scene.

She was SO nice, you guys! She was extremely personable and fan-oriented so no one felt rushed when meeting her. I’m still so thrilled. I won an advanced copy of Red Scrolls of Magic in a trivia game. (The question was which shirt was Simon wearing in City of Ash when he meets Clary outside the comic book store. I have read these books too many times, guys, because I also knew the dialogue surrounding the shirt lol)

Thank you, Stan Lee. November 12, 2018.

Kida is one of my favorite Disney characters so I figured I’d paint her for practice

Embryo stem cells created from skin cells

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU) have found a way to transform skin cells into the three major stem cell types that comprise early-stage embryos. The work (in mouse cells) has significant implications for modelling embryonic disease and placental dysfunctions, as well as paving the way to create whole embryos from skin cells.

As published in Cell Stem Cell, Dr. Yossi Buganim of HU’s Department of Developmental Biology and Cancer Research and his team discovered a set of genes capable of transforming murine skin cells into all three of the cell types that comprise the early embryo: the embryo itself, the placenta and the extra-embryonic tissues, such as the umbilical cord. In the future, it may be possible to create entire human embryos out of human skin cells, without the need for sperm or eggs. This discovery also has vast implications for modelling embryonic defects and shedding light on placental dysfunctions, as well as solving certain infertility problems by creating human embryos in a petri dish.
