“She was wearing underwear on her head. Not because she was crazy…!” A very pasta heavy episode, with a bottle of cheap wine apiece, which is probably what caused me to get reminiscing about my grandmother and the time I got lost in New Orleans. Also available on iTunes! Also, a raccoon walked in the […]

In the small hours of the night, this postcard arrived in my brain. It wasn’t addressed to me, but I got it anyway. I know absolutely nothing about Elijuh, except that A) he is not named Elijah, and B) apparently his mother has gout. (Also his handwriting is the font “Rabiohead,” and the paper textures […]
I have spent the past week sick. Not quite “sick as a dog” but perhaps “sick as a whale” or “sick as a llama.” Horribly stuffed up nose and mild fever for a day or two which gradually slid into somewhat stuffed up nose and sporadic cough. I am on the mend, and fortunately I […]
Schrodinger’s Fork In which we have some profoundly mediocre food and review a couple of surprisingly decent dinners past, disagree as to the quality of the wine, discuss some listener mail, and I somehow fail to get scurvy. Also available on iTunes!
It was an insanely productive week, but I kinda feel like I carved the productivity out of my belly with a knife. But lots and lots got done! This is important! The art edits are almost finished, and now I just have to finalize the cover, write another scene on Book 6, and get cracking […]
So I found myself at the used bookstore this week–I had a few dregs of credit left from the last time I sold ’em books–and decided that I was in the mood for a thriller. They had both In the Woods and Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I bought them both, I read them both, […]
I spent a chunk of last night with a pen and some large Bookmobile boxes, with the end result that signed copies of Black Dogs 1 & 2 will go on sale tomorrow, along with the regular unsigned copies. (Transit time will take a little longer on signed copies, as I still have to ship […]
I shouldn’t complain, I got like three weeks of downtime last month, which we used on the Great Stoffice Migration, and I made a little art. This week, however, it has all come home to roost–art edits on Book 5 today, text edits on the next book at the end of the week, a Digger […]
Brain is sloggy. Got back in last night from MarsCon, had a good time, very nice people, but of course still pretty wiped out. Fell asleep during Iron Chef America and slept like the drugged dead for about nine hours. Got up, got on exercise bike, showered, fell into chair. Suspect consciousness is purely illusory. […]
So Kevin and I will be doin’ MarsCon in Williamsburg VA this weekend! I am the artist guest of honor, there’ll be art in the art show, we’ll have prints for sale, Kevin will likely wear a kilt*, all will be hopefully be awesomeness. (I’ve never done MarsCon before, so this’ll be an adventure…) I […]
