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
Wrote a book review yesterday (Sarah Hoyt's latest, A Few Good Men), submitted The Tree of Death and Life, did some job hunting (hey, I need a job that gives me more time to write) and basically accomplished something. 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.
Another Book Release
Still at the farm, and realizing that I miss being out here with my friends. I'm doing some writing, but with Google Drive/Docs being a little screwy, I'm not in my usual "flow" of things. On the other hand, I'm writing. So... eh? I'll be back to regular posting this Friday. I'll also be back … Continue reading Another Book Release
Mysticon 2013 AAR
So it's late Sunday afternoon at Soldier's Retreat and I'm coming down off of the high that was the awesomeness of Mysticon 2013. Finally got to meet Col. Tom Kratman in person, which was a hoot, because that man can tell a story. Had to keep it relatively PG-13, however, due to the underage midgets … Continue reading Mysticon 2013 AAR
Mistikaaaaaaaaaahn!
Just another reminder... MYSTICON!!! I'm going to Khan you. That is all. Get it? Kaaaaaaahn? Oh, admit your nerdiness already. Sheesh.
Accomplish-y Writer
I feel all accomplish-y right now. Put up a review of Maurice Broaddus' King Maker, which is a fascinating retelling of the King Arthur legends, over at Shiny Book Review. I also cleaned my kitchen, did the litter boxes, and (almost) took out the trash. I mean, I saw that it was almost full, so it's not like I'm … Continue reading Accomplish-y Writer
The Doctor Who Apology Tour
It's not often I'm wrong (only four times a day), so when I am I come out and admit it. I was wrong about Dr. Who. I made the mistake of watching some of the older episodes long ago (late 80's?) and my initial reaction was "Campy". I didn't watch any more episodes after, and when … Continue reading The Doctor Who Apology Tour
In Soviet Russia…
Well, it goes to show you that the cosmos, at least, are still willing to give Putin the middle finger. The meteorite seems to have impacted as well, though I'm still waiting to hear back from some friends. As horrifying as it could have been, the science geeky part of me (which is a huge part) thinks … Continue reading In Soviet Russia…
Overcommitted Is A Word
Yesterday was weird. I got home, and the next thing I knew it was time to go back to work. I did literally nothing yesterday. No writing. No creating. No editing. No painting. No eating. I don't think I'm sick. But I did miss my word count goal as a result, which has set me back about … Continue reading Overcommitted Is A Word
Mysticon 2013 Schedule
So I received my print copy of What Scares the Boogeyman? in the mail just now. It looks nice, if a bit on the thin side. But since it's only 200+ pages or so, that is to be expected. You can order it now at Amazon and-- --holy crap my computer just scared me! It started my … Continue reading Mysticon 2013 Schedule
Sunday Blatherings
Taking a breather from this writing marathon that's hit me today. It feels good, but it also dredges up some bad moments of "Whoops... did I mean that?" when reviewing scenes I'd already finished off. A lot of the problem is that it's difficult for me to keep the voices of Gabriel and Andrew (oh, … Continue reading Sunday Blatherings
