Thirteen incomplete short stories, six incomplete book reviews, eight incomplete novels, four novels in dire need of an edit, and I'm sitting around playing Civilization V. I really have no excuse for laziness. It's not like I get bored with a novel and move on or anything. I just take a break from it because it's moving too … Continue reading Exist-ish

The Planning Stages for World Domination (and kitties)
I oftentimes wonder just what goes into the business planning of a small, successful publishing house. Not because I plan on taking them all over eventually (no, of course not, not me...) but because I wonder how they set up their distribution into bookstores. I mean, I know that they have to get in with … Continue reading The Planning Stages for World Domination (and kitties)
HWA Possibility
Two years later, Tom Kratman is still the most popular person on my website. Damn you, Colonel. I had no small amount of glee after watching Kentucky lose to Robert Morris in the opening round of the NIT. Last year Kentucky fans were insufferable after rolling through the NCAA tournament. I guess this year was karma and … Continue reading HWA Possibility
No Review, No Problem
I was set to review John Ringo's Tiger by the Tail today and... I couldn't. I literally had such a bad review mentally written that I couldn't bring myself to actually do it. I know the Paladin of Shadows is a really "silly" series (okay, Ghost is... the others following weren't that bad), but Tiger by the Tail takes the absurdity to an entirely different level. … Continue reading No Review, No Problem
Deadlines Looming

Today... not so much. Doing the piping of a buttload of cookies will do that to arthritic fingers. So … Continue reading Deadlines Looming
Jason’s Doctor Who Love Fest Continues
Hey, look at that, a 0600 post. Strange, no? Well, you can think of this little scheduling thingy they have for future posts, or believe that I really am awake early in the morning typing this, sans Starbucks. Your call. I just finished the David Tennant seasons of Doctor Who and am now on to the Matt … Continue reading Jason’s Doctor Who Love Fest Continues
That One Post You Never Come To Enjoy
I've got this... bug right now. Not sure what it is, exactly. I lost my voice and have been hacking up something most decidedly Kermit colored. On the other hand, I feel fine. It's weird. I'll be okay, then suddenly coughing like a maniac. No fever, no aches, no headache. Just no voice. Huh. Good thing I … Continue reading That One Post You Never Come To Enjoy
Five More Years
Made it home safely enough. Am dead tired. Also, WordPress just shot me a message congratulating me on five years with them. Huh. That went by fast. Well, here's to another five years.
