They’re Makin’ Me Famous

A really cool review of Lawyers in Hell over at the Otherwhere Gazette. Enjoy!

Holy Crap Jason Survived Another Con

Ah, time for the semi-annual “Holy Crap Jason Survived Another Con” After Action Review (henceforth to be called AAR because, well, I’m lazy). For past AAR’s, click here, here and here. I rolled out of Lexington a little later than I thought I would (expected to be on the road by 0900, was really on [...]

Pic of the Day

See You

I’ll be leaving for MidSouthCon tomorrow morning, so this’ll be a short update. Don’t forget to get your free download of Janet Morris’ Beyond Sanctuary today. I don’t know how long it’ll be at Amazon for free, so you should run and grab a copy now (just in case). No news on the publication date for anything [...]

C-4 and a Smile

Brief note today since I’m still feeling under the weather. Only seven more days until MidSouthCon. Looking forward to meeting lots of new people and establishing new contacts.

Olympic Sport of Procrastinating

There is a male cardinal on my bird feeder right now, tormenting my kitties. He chirps, they chirp back. The brainwashing has begun. Excellent… Received my first royalty check last week and (I’m rich! Rich! Bite me, haters! Muwahaha!) can now buy myself dinner. Yeah, really. Authors don’t generally make a lot of money, you know? [...]

God I’m Insane

I think I’m about ready to stop watching Glee.  I’ve watched as these characters have grown, changed, grown, changed, turned around, went back to who they were originally, change, be thrust to the front, change, get cast to the background, change… you see a pattern here? Every single time you start to enjoy a character on [...]

War and Books

I need to write up something about ergonomic growth for work today. Blargh. I had my sights set on some Wraithkin and Wraithguard, damn it, not some thing about team motivation and growth. I went and got Joe Haldeman’s The Forever War yesterday (along with Alison Weir’s The Wars of the Roses) and I must say, The Forever War is a [...]
