FantaSci 2021 — The Fuzzy Head Edition
(Warning -- the following contains words put to paper by an exhausted author who didn't sleep well last night after arriving home. Reader discretion is advised) I should point out immediately that FantaSci 2021 was a huge hit. I don't know how many people there were off the top of my head but everyone I... Continue Reading →
Fantasci 2021 Schedule
I'll be attending Fantasci this coming weekend (May 21-23) in Raleigh-Durham, NC. Here's my panel schedule (note: I'm not entirely sure what all the panels are about, so I'll be winging it on a few -- not that I typically prepare for a panel anyway). Friday 2:00PM -- Jump Shot (w/ Ian J. Malone, Stephen... Continue Reading →
The Sixth Stage — Indifference
They announced the 2021 Hugo Finalists last week. I almost missed the announcement (and considering my friends in the industry, the fact that none of them are really talking about it says more than anything I can). Fortunately for me, I'm pretty much indifferent towards 90% of the awards out there now, so I didn't... Continue Reading →
Exciting Update
(Side note before we begin: why is my title font so emboldened, wordpress? I'm not sure I'm liking your "new and improved" look. Kinda reminds me of the train wreck which Facebook turned in to) This is no April Fools Day joke... or is it? 😀 I've been hinting around at a few Sooper Seekrit... Continue Reading →
The Ongoing Saga of a World Class Scumbag
Seriously, I can't make this stuff up. If I submitted this sort of Machiavellian scheme to my publisher in book format she would laugh at me and tell me to make it more believable. I predicted in a blog post back on Feb 16 that scumbag extraordinaire, Jason Sanford, wrote his hit piece on Toni... Continue Reading →
An Update, In Repose
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 →
Fallout From The Slanderous Article of Jason Sanford Ends Any Respectability For Worldcon
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 →
Back To Work
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 →
Panel Next Week
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 →
Don’t Mess With An Author’s Source of Income
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...

The Object of Representation
Two posts in one day? Oh, you know I'm mad when that happens. The more I look into the ditching of Gina Carano by her talent agency, UTA (henceforth to be called UTI because it's about as useful as one, apparently), the angrier I become. Jeebus. At this rate I'm going to be Bruce Banner... Continue Reading →
#WeLoveGinaCarano
I don't get mad easily. I might get irritated, frustrated, and even exasperated, but actual mad? I have a very long, slow fuse and because of this, I don't tend to get mad very often. I tend to get over things pretty easily (mostly -- I have been known to harbor a grudge or two)... Continue Reading →
Toni Weisskopf Interview
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.
Don’t Nominate Me
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 →
