It's strange. It's been over 16 months since the Colonel Kratman interview and it's still generating plenty of traffic. The only thing that is generating more is my Larry Correia interview, which blew everything away at the time and is still plenty popular. Of course, everyone else is in on the Monster Hunter secret now, … Continue reading #OccupyHell and Other Tags
Heroes in Hell
The Status Quo
...sucks. Really. If I followed the status quo, I doubt I'd be in Kentucky with my job. I seriously doubt I'd be writing, or selling. I know I wouldn't be in training to become a professional editor, nor would I have the chance at one day running a publishing company. I'm unorthodox in my approach, … Continue reading The Status Quo
Newsdays
I have been busy busy busy these past few days. You may (or, more likely, may not) have noticed? First, for those of you who must have regular updates on things I'm doing, I'm on Twitter @WarpCordova. I usually blather about nothing but once in awhile I put up something of use. I also have … Continue reading Newsdays
Go Go Gadget Writer!
Sent off version3 of In the Shadow of Paradise for the next Heroes in Hell anthology just now. Despite yesterday's claim to a complete lack of productivity this week, today has been much better, even if I put in an 8 hour day before I started writing. Still, any writing is good writing, I suppose. Up … Continue reading Go Go Gadget Writer!
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
Bid’nes Up Front, Pah’ty In The Back
A life in fiction doesn't really differ from anyone you see on the news, if you think about it. To both a reader and writer alike, the character is a living, breathing individual. A character such as Tori is as real to you and me as Paris Hilton is, maybe more so (Tori, you see, … Continue reading Bid’nes Up Front, Pah’ty In The Back
Price Updates
All righty, let me break down just what is where at this moment: Lawyers in Hell -- available at Amazon (Paperback - $19.95; Kindle - $9.99; Hardcover - $34.95), Barnes&Noble (Paperback - $19.95; Hardcover - $20.23) The hardcover for Lawyers in Hell at B&N is a steal right now, a 550+ page book available for just over … Continue reading Price Updates
Book Signage Party Time
So the big book signing at Barnes&Noble went well, despite it getting off to an inauspicious start. Apparently, I wasn't added to their events calendar, so not many people outside of those I've informed (which is quite a few people, but still) got the word in time. Still, sold four times the amount of books … Continue reading Book Signage Party Time
Pottermore?
Someone asked me yesterday "What is Pottermore"? To which I replied "Potter-what?" It's amazing that, as people are predicting the death of print books and such, one person can come along and change the entire game once more. J.K. Rowling didn't announce anything, just simply created a website called "Pottermore" with the words "Coming Soon" … Continue reading Pottermore?
Distracting Gator Ruined the Link
I guess I should have put up a link yesterday for the Lawyers in Hell pre-order. My bad, that damned gator was distracting. Amazon Pre-Order Link
Yippee!
Busy weekend, and this week isn't getting any easier. The brother of one of the guys at work was in a car crash and the coworker had to take off, which means a lot of shifts had to be covered. Enter SuperJason, with his amazing ability to fill in the gaps. I picked up about … Continue reading Yippee!
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
Bourbon and Fiction Do Too Mix Well!
In the Shadow of Paradise is finished. It's at one of the first readers/editors now, hopefully without any continuity errors. After that comes the fine toothed comb. That's going to be about as much fun as a colonoscopy, but more productive I'm certain. I like the ending of the story. I didn't like the original … Continue reading Bourbon and Fiction Do Too Mix Well!
Good Morning!
Well, I did promise to work on one of the short stories I had due. Unfortunately, instead of working on the Catechisms story, I found myself working on the Adventurers in Hell story, In the Shadow of Paradise. Still, considering that the story is almost at completion, I don't feel too bad about that now. … Continue reading Good Morning!
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!
