Clutching For The Mantle Of Hephaestus
It was Redshirts that put me over the edge. I’ll admit that I hadn’t paid much attention to the Hugo Awards in the last 20 years or so. I’d read American Gods and The City & The City and loved them … Continue reading

Tor is not a race.
I reposted the following link at work, on my Kindle, and the mobile version of WordPress is really screwy, so I am updating this post now. Go read that link–it’s from the woman who is behind Sad Puppies now. Not … Continue reading

We Are Science Fiction
Today when I was running some errands I happened to notice (well, okay, my roommate happened to notice and point out to me) a Walgreen’s store that had closed and displayed a prominent “STORE FIXTURES LIQUIDATION” sign. Inside I found a … Continue reading
Odds and Sods
Well, Gingerbread Wolves is out there and so far the response has been positive. People don’t hate the ending as much as I expected them to–at least, no one has threatened to lynch me yet. It is a grimmer ending … Continue reading

Oh, Look! Another Petition To Make Amazon Change How It Does Business.
I generally don’t comment on this kind of thing, because it’s pointless and a huge waste of time–companies have no reason to pay attention to petitions and the well run ones don’t. Like the Stop Allowing Returns On E-Books Petition, … Continue reading

Childhood’s End
I recently stopped listening to an audiobook. It was Arthur Clarke’s Childhood’s End, which was a book that impressed me greatly as a teenager. It was a very good reading, too, Eric Michael Summerer was the narrator, and he has … Continue reading

Stop Begging. Please.
Badly written self-published books don’t make me feel embarrassed to admit that I am self published. Neither do poorly edited ones. Or bad covers. Or even gay dinosaur erotica. As far as I’m concerned if an author wants to publish … Continue reading
