[Writing Post] Writing, Reading, Signing
Oh, Wednesday… you’ve come back around. And now… here we are… on track for some things and behind on others. Same song, second verse. But I feel (sort of) okay with it – because I’m currently reading Felicia Day’s book, You’re Never Weird on the Internet (Almost), and just got through most of the part […]
[Spotlight Post] J Kathleen Cheney & The Seat of Magic
This week’s spotlight post is on J.Kathleen Cheney’s second book – Seat of Magic. I mentioned when I wrote about her before that I tend to hesitate reading people I’m friends with, but she was worth the read. Her first book in this series, The Golden City intrigued me.

[Spotlight Post] LeVar Burton & Carrie Vaughn
And now it’s Friday… Spotlight day. It’s been an active week. I’m getting the word out about LeVar Burton’s efforts on Kickstarter (not that he needs my help). LeVar Burton has been and continues to be more than “Geordi LaForge” on Star Trek: The Next Generation (though we do love him for that). He’s been […]
[Spotlight Post] A Follow Spot of Sorts
I wish I could say this crazy week is over, but it’s not. We have two more days to sell art and hang with the amazing performers and crew of Scarborough Renaissance Festival. I’m trying to get my neurons firing for an actual spotlight, but it’s not happening. Not that there aren’t so many awesome […]
[Writer Blog] A Reading Weekend – Benson, Caine, and Cheney
This weekend I had a “reading” weekend. I went offline and read books. It was GLORIOUS. My husband and I do this a couple of times a year – usually in East Texas in a place that has intermittent cell signal – this time simply at home. In about a 48-hour period, I can get […]
[Spotlight Post] John Ringo
It’s spotlight Friday, and I’m doing this – “I have 20 minutes left of lunch, what do I do?†I’m currently reading Unto the Breach by John Ringo. Yes, this is an older book. Published in 2006. I’ve had it in my possession since 2008 when John Ringo gave it to me at SoonerCon. Yeah, […]
[Spotlight Post] The Cats of Tanglewood Forest by de Lint and Vess
It’s Friday – and I’m supposed to be coming up with a Spotlight. “Supposed†to being an operative word. Between allergy meds and some “people suck†news. I think I’ll just tell you about the book I’m currently reading. I do know that, in fact, MOST people do not suck, but the ones that do? […]
[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 […]
