[Conventions] ConDFW 2018 Programming
ConDFW is this weekend. It’s bittersweet having a convention and knowing Bill Crider won’t be there ever again. They also had their Guest of Honor cancel, so it’s going to be weird, but it’s going to be fun (DARN IT!) We’ll make this year awesome yet. Here’s where I’ll be and when. Saturday is also […]

[Writer Post] Christmas Eve 2015 and Oopsies
MERRY CHRISTMAS! I know I’m a day late on my Wednesday post… yesterday was busy with good, bad, and an epic FAIL. But I’m making up for it. So the big writing news since the last week was Tor.Com announcing it is closing to “unsolicited submissions” starting January 7, 2016. This is sad, sad news […]
