I’ve been sorely lacking in keeping up with my own blog. What can I say, it’s been a busy… well… my girlfriend would say eternity, but it’s been a busy couple of months. And the last few weeks have been hell, but in a good way. Lots of projects completed. I’ll be listing a number […]
Networking… Fictorians Style Read More »
Okay, so that was weird. Sitting at the kitchen table signing a stack of books I’m giving away at a convention… it’s a first, to be sure. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that… not if I ever get any further in this game or eventually become a best-seller. The whole autograph thingy

It’s a three-day extravaganza of panels, classes, carousing, dinners, pitches, critiques, and awards.
