So I've seen a lot of hate directed towards two new television series which have come out the past week -- the live action remake of COWBOY BEBOP, and the adaptation of THE WHEEL OF TIME. Having seen both, I have opinions (not that anyone cares... well, one of my most visited posts ever on … Continue reading Unnecessary Hate

The Mysteriously Disappearing Author
"Where has Jason been?" I'm sure someone asked. In fact, I'm almost positive I heard it come from the peanut gallery. Well, I turned in the final draft of CHICKS IN TANK TOPS to Baen Books on Thursday, so that's eaten up a lot of my time. I also traveled to another state for a … Continue reading The Mysteriously Disappearing Author
FactoryCon 2021 AAR — Writer’s Retreat Edition

Keep Afloat
Today has been a perfect example of why I've kept this website up and running for 13 years now. John Scalzi once said (I'm quoting from memory, so it might not be word for word) -- "Social media platforms come and go... but your website? That'll be around long after." Don't get me wrong. Facebook, … Continue reading Keep Afloat

Helping Out Another
This week, I want to talk to you about a friend of mine I've known for **cough cough mumble** years now who only recently became an author. His name? Shane Gries. Shane writes what I like to call epic space opera. He's less about the "pew pew!" and more about the story and plot. Not … Continue reading Helping Out Another
Wyvacon 2021 AAR — The Unnamed Virus of Unspecified Origin Edition
Wyvacon 2021 Okay, so first off, it's Why-vuh-con and not Wiv-uh-con like I thought. Yeah, English continues to bully me, even when I try to speak it and claim to be one of those writer types as my full-time job. I had a lot of fun at Wyvacon this year. Granted, I always have a … Continue reading Wyvacon 2021 AAR — The Unnamed Virus of Unspecified Origin Edition
Wyvacon Weekend
This weekend's Wyvacon schedule looks pretty exciting. I know I'm looking forward to a good time. Bonus -- Wyvacon has said that anyone under the age of 16 gets in for free with one adult paid admission. So if you pay for your ticket, your three kids get in for free. It's that family-friendly. It's … Continue reading Wyvacon Weekend

WriterDojo
I know a lot of people hate on Larry Correia because of his politics, but nobody can state with any honesty that he doesn't understand business. He and Steve Diamond (another accountant... what's up with the accountants taking over writing?) host a weekly podcast called WriterDojo, which is designed to help out those who are … Continue reading WriterDojo

And Then The Author Lost His Cool
It used to be amusing. Back when I was first starting out, I kept people more up-to-date with what was going on in my every day life. Between reviewing books (and we reviewed a lot of them over at Shiny Book Review), working 100+ hours a week, maintaining some semblance of sanity in the home … Continue reading And Then The Author Lost His Cool
