Well Paid Hack

Not apologizing for the lack of updates. Would you rather read this or read something in print (or e-book)? Thought so. Yes, I was working on Wraithkin and Failsafe. I’m also working on Heroes & Rogues, which needs to be done in about two weeks. Oops. I keep linking to both Amanda Green‘s and Sarah Hoyt‘s blogs because of [...]

I Got Nothing

Feeling a bit melancholy today, so I went ahead and started listening to music from the Final Fantasy series. You know, that game series that pretty much shaped my formative years (okay, Final Fantasy III and beyond)? Yeah, that one. Hey, speaking of, if it’s called Final Fantasy, why are there fourteen games in the [...]

In A Groove

I think I’m starting to get into a groove here with both writing, working and reviewing. Somehow I found the energy to juggle all of them while pretending to have this wild and crazy life. I wish I could claim it’s been enlightening, but really it’s just a lot of Pepsi. My heart really won’t [...]

The Boring Writer

Okay, so over at Shiny Book Review we’re having another free book contest. Merely click on this link, like the post (or like us on Facebook) and you’re entered. The prize? Books 1 (Jack of Ravens) and 2 (The Burning Man) of Mark Chadbourn’s Kingdom of the Serpent series. We’re going to try to have at least one [...]

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 [...]

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? [...]

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 [...]

Saturday Posting Storm

It’s Saturday and I am very pleased to announce that I survived the super storm that hit Kentucky yesterday. I got a little bit of hail, lots of rain and some freaked out kitties. To the north and south of us, not so lucky. Remember, donate blood people. It’ll help. Other than that, just the [...]

Quack, quack, quack

Reblogged from madgeniusclub: by Amanda S. Green No, that’s not me fondly imagining going to the duck pond and a warm Spring afternoon. That’s fun and brings back wonderful memories of when my son was little and we’d head out to the park to feed the ducks. No, the quack, quack, quack is the sound [...]

A Sunday Off

Over at Shiny Book Review we had a contest. Only 7 people entered, so choosing the winner was rather easy. We took an advanced randomization table, inserted a linear graph to calculate, used a high-tech algorithm to determine that our randomness was completely random, and then we drew straws to see which program would run first. Suffice [...]
