[Writer Post] The Random House Kerfuffle
It always seems like when I have no real writing post to do, about 5 minutes after I post something, something major happens. This one took a couple of days, but late last week there was a huge out cry about Random House and their digital imprints. John Scalzi and Victoria Stauss outlined all the […]
[Spotlight Post] Geoffrey A Landis – Mars Crossing
Today’s spotlight is on a future FenCon GOH – Geoffrey A. Landis… or at least his book, Mars Crossing. I’m in the middle of this book, so it’s not a complete review… it’s more of a set of impressions. [asa]0812576489[/asa] Landis will be our Science GOH for FenCon X this October. I do attempt to […]
[Spotlight Post] The Agatha H. Girl Genius Novels

[Writer Post] Amber Benson and Editing
Today is Wednesday, which means writer post. And while I’m writing this at lunch, I’m listening (on headphones) to an interview Amber Benson did with The Nerdist. And the headphones better not come out – because it’s totally not safe for work…but it’s fascinating. That’s just an aside…and man, there are no censor issues with […]
[Spotlight] Rayguns Over Texas, Rick Klaw, and Conventions
Okay, so today is a Spotlight post day. And I’m struggling – again – it’s not that there aren’t a TON of worthy people to showcase, or that I’ve even run through all my friends/colleagues/professional acquaintances. I haven’t – by a long shot. It’s narrowing it down or making it relevant to a project or […]
