Where Have All The Villains Gone?

Leave a Comment Posted by on May 22, 2012

I was responding to something that my computer did to me this morning (stupid cheating AI doesn’t know that I know he’s cheating so I won’t slaughter him in Stronghold Legends…) when it occurred to me that I only enjoy certain types of villains. And believe me, stupid, crushing everything mad “I’m the villain!” characters [...]

Well Paid Hack

1 Comment Posted by on May 14, 2012

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

4 Comments Posted by on April 27, 2012

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 [...]

Motivate Me, Sir!

Leave a Comment Posted by on April 25, 2012

One of the roughest parts of getting through a day is the realization that not matter what you do, nothing seems to motivate you. Soda? Not working. Exercise? Not working. Two ounces of coke off of a prostitute’s ass (okay, metaphorically, but still…)? Not working. Though I’ll forgive Charlie Sheen for the advice. He really [...]

In A Groove

Leave a Comment Posted by on April 4, 2012

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 [...]

C-4 and a Smile

Leave a Comment Posted by on March 16, 2012

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. I’ve been sitting on the publishing sidelines (as it were) for the past two years, and I think it’s time to venture back into the madness of [...]

Olympic Sport of Procrastinating

Leave a Comment Posted by on March 11, 2012

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

Leave a Comment Posted by on March 4, 2012

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

Leave a Comment Posted by on March 3, 2012

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 [...]
