[Writer Post] The First Wednesday of 2018
It’s the first Wednesday of 2018. I’m on better track than I was the end of 2017. Yay? The last few days have actually been productive, so here’s hoping the vacation actually did what it was supposed to which is recharge my brain. I’ve extended the deadline for the Cancer Can Suck It anthology for […]
[Writer Post] Cancer Can Suck It
I just found out an author near and dear to me is going into hospice because of cancer after losing his lovely wife to a different varietal of this stupid disease. So this post is about the anthology project I’m editing. I have three stories so far for the anthology – one is a very […]
[Writer Blog] Taking On a New Project for Charity
It’s Wednesday. It’s blog day. My head is in NO kind of game today. There are a variety of reasons, none of them are important. Houseguests are in flux. House is ready (again) for the holidays for the most part. Personal appearances are over for the year. Stuff needs to get done – and yet, […]
[Writer Post][Write the Story] A Combined Post

For those of you who are horror readers (or fans of “Texas Weird”) and having been around the SF convention circuit, you’ve seen Kasey. She’s Joe R. Lansdale’s […]

[Book Review] Welcome to the Greenhouse
Fernando Diaz of OR Books sent me a free copy of Welcome to the Greenhouse edited by Gordon van Gedler to read and review a little over a month ago. I need to apologize for it taking me a MONTH to read this collection of short stories on climate change, but it is neither “light” […]
Happy Wednesday
The new StrangeWords is up. “When Good Ideas Go Bad”. It’s actually been cold the last couple of days – for Texas. Especially in the mornings and evenings. Which has meant a snuggly Elder Cat – sort of – a frisky dog, and attention spans that could be longer. I’m giving my anthology story one […]
NOW It Can Be Told…Withersin Sale
I’ve known for a while, but haven’t said much until contracts came. I just signed contracts for the sale of my story, “Queer Eye for the Dead Guy” to Withersin. It won’t be out until the Fall of 2010 – Withersin but out a note in their email: Commencing after the release of Volume 3: […]
