Sam Smith (full name -- Samuel Collingwood Smith, but that's a lot to type out...) posted a brilliant takedown of the individual who launched a slanderous, defaming, and fraudulent attack against Toni Weisskopf and Baen Books after the whole kerfuffle went down two weeks ago. You can find that initial article here. It was a … Continue reading An Update, In Repose

I'm too pissed off to write. Thankfully, Larry Correia seems to write better when angry. When I get mad, I typically clean my house. The damn kitchen is going to sparkle when I'm done today. Dear WorldCon,You are cowards.Several years ago, because some of you were angry at me for getting a bunch of people … Continue reading Fallout From The Slanderous Article of Jason Sanford Ends Any Respectability For Worldcon

Well, now that all the kerfuffle is over and done with (he said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice), we can go back to the things people come to this site for in the first place -- writing. I haven't gotten much creative writing done this past week. Yes, I'm a slacker. I … Continue reading Back To Work

Next Thursday, Feb 25 at 8:00PM Eastern, I'll be joining H.P. Holo, Les Johnson and Kacey Ezell for a free panel called "Authors Just Talk About Travel". It should be a lot of fun. The picture below has more information for those who want to watch, ask questions, or just hang out. It'll be my … Continue reading Panel Next Week

It will never cease to amaze me how individuals will attack someone all in the name of getting noticed and applauded equality. It's award season and as usual, someone had dragged up the Sad Puppies thing once more and tried to use it to make themselves relevant. I normally ignore this sort of stuff because … Continue reading Don’t Mess With An Author’s Source of Income

Toni Weisskopf (Head Honcho at Baen Books) did a really interesting livestream today at Live From The Bunker podcast. Here's the YouTube link. Good advice about publishing in this interview. Check it out.

This is just the annual "Don't Nominate Jason For A Hugo Award" reminder. I can already hear some jackhole in the back cackling "Never intended to, you loser" to which I reply "Thank you." Vote with your wallets and buy more copies of my books. Buy them for your neighbors. Buy them for your cats … Continue reading Don’t Nominate Me

The fantasy world is much more preferable, as an author, than the real one. Progress is moving smoothly along for Book 2 of A Cycle of Shadow and Light. An early problem with some timing was easily rectified after Gary and I decided to tackle the issue from a different angle. With that plan in … Continue reading Drifting and Compatibility

January is shaping up to be quite the month. My first ever fantasy series, A Cycle of Shadow and Light, can finally be talked about a little bit. Still can't tell everything about it, but I can say my co-author and I see this as (at least) a six book series. Considering my productivity levels, … Continue reading Fantasy Shenanigans

I've been on hiatus from social media in 2021 so far and I have to tell you, my stress levels have reduced drastically because of it. I don't know what it is about social media which drives people to dwell in a dark cavern of fear and spout nonsense in their echo chambers, but I … Continue reading Social Media Separation

I'm an Esther Friesner fan. Always have been since I first stumbled upon her work years ago. She'd edited and created some of the more dark and humorous anthologies over the years at Baen Books, all of them with a play on words to mess with those who oftentimes take themselves a little too seriously. … Continue reading Exciting News
