FandomFest started off well enough. I mean, I showed up a little early Friday to get checked in and only waited a few minutes in the line to get my room. The hotel staff apologized and told me that they were out of rooms on the other side of the hotel, and asked if I … Continue reading Fandom Fest AAR
Conventions
Home Safe
Survived FandomFest, somehow. Heat was unbearable, hotel sucked, and I sold zero books. Complete loss. On the plus side, I made it home okay. Full update and AAR tomorrow. Night!
Recovering
I think I'm starting to recover from Libertycon24... just in time for FandomFest! Plus side: I've got everything I need for the con already packed! Down side: I haven't unpacked and washed everything I need for the con. Conclusion: I'll be doing laundry today. The final decision to close Borders (unless someone buys them out … Continue reading Recovering
Libertycon 24 AAR
For the record, I can run on 10 hours of sleep spread across 4 days. That being said, it's not a pretty sight. Libertycon 24 was a blast, with the launch party of Lawyers in Hell as well as for selling more copies of Corruptor. So let's get this AAR-CE (After Action Report-Con Edition, for … Continue reading Libertycon 24 AAR
Weekend Road Trip
So yeah, I've been working the "real" job so much this past week that I haven't had time to update here. Oops. This Thursday I leave for Libertycon24 in Chattanooga, TN. Next weekend I'm in Louisville, KY for FandomFest. In between, I have a short story due. Meh. The schedule for Libertycon24 is as follows … Continue reading Weekend Road Trip
Looooong Update
I have been without internet for most of the morning, so I got a lot of writing done minus my usual research (i.e., annoying Leo, pestering my boss, and so on...). This means, naturally, that about 80% of it I’m going to have to cut out eventually. In the meantime, though, I started the Catechism … Continue reading Looooong Update
A Snippet!
Seems like everyone in the house is busy this weekend. First off, happy Mother's Day to all those moms out there. Okay, it's only Friday, but since I try not to post on the weekends (primarily because I'm usually out of town) I'll go ahead and get it out of the way with now. Have … Continue reading A Snippet!
200cc’s of Espresso, Stat!
Officially back to work today. Received two more books for the review pile over at Shiny Book Review. The first one, Stuff Christians Like, is highly amusing so far. The other, Kristine Kathryn Rusch's advanced reader copy of City of Ruins, has been read already and is about to be reviewed. Look for it sometime in … Continue reading 200cc’s of Espresso, Stat!
Another Boring Update
Well, I no longer feel as though I've been flattened by a truck. This is a good thing. Just got my invite back to Mysticon for 2012. The invites are going out this weekend. Apparently I jumped the gun when I emailed my contact person last night asking about it. Ah well, now I know. … Continue reading Another Boring Update
Plague, Arriving
The plague has descended upon humanity once more, its earthly visage being two small, innocent children... Yeah, the kids are sick and home from school again. Just makes the timing all the more difficult because I am alone with the plague. I'm skeered. "AND INJUSTICE FOR ALL" is completed and turned in to the editor. … Continue reading Plague, Arriving
Mysticon 2011 AAR
First off, thanks to the staff and volunteers of Mysticon. It was a very well-run con and I for one look forward to attending next year. Lots of great guests and good panels. We arrived around 4:30 on Friday afternoon, a little early because I didn't want to be late for opening ceremonies. Got checked … Continue reading Mysticon 2011 AAR
Gone POOF
That sound you just heard? That's the sound of a thousand voices, screaming as one in horror as I descend upon their unwary city, bringing pestilence and despair. It's con weekend! Yeah, have a good weekend everyone!
Mysticon Tomorrow
Wow it's cold in my room this morning. Tomorrow is Mysticon, which is going to be a lot of fun. I'll get to talk about both my book and my short stories for the upcoming anthologies Lawyers in Hell and Adventurers in Hell. I may even get invited into the following one, Engineers in Hell. Not … Continue reading Mysticon Tomorrow
Deadlines Go By
Four days and counting until Mysticon. Come down to Roanoke if you'd like to purchase an autograph copy of my book and meet more famous authors than myself. It'll be a blast! The cold, harsh reality of the dreaded "deadline" is looming up on the horizon. I can feel its icy tendrils grasping at my … Continue reading Deadlines Go By
…and nothing else matters…
Countdown: 5 days until Mysticon, which I am very excited to be a participant at. I haven't been to a con in quite a while now, and I need a con fix. As I mentioned previously, I have posted my schedule (so far as I know it) and am eagerly awaiting a few of said … Continue reading …and nothing else matters…
