Last night, after…gosh, what, a couple of years of putting it off? I finally watched the last few David Tennant episodes of Doctor Who. Part of me has just been too darned busy to catch up with every series on the planet…and part of me has just been reluctant to see Tennant go. I watched more Star Trek TNG…
Mom and I had a nice long talk the other day. She owed it to me…as she had just experienced a strange anomaly that had her in the hospital for a few days. It was something to do with her heart. I hate hearing about this afterward — there’s really no good time to hear something like this. (Thank…
There’s a popular blog post being linked to discussing 20 Great Things About Dating a Writer. It’s all very peachy and SARKy and amusing and true. I would print it out and seal it with a kiss and give it to the Fairy GodBoyfriend in half a heartbeat. but… The other half of that heartbeat knows the dark side…
New reviews are up! Title: The Immortals Author: J.T. Ellison EAN: 9780778327639 The cool thing about J.T Ellison is not that her Taylor Jackson novels could easily be converted into CSI: Nashville (and more well done, at that), it’s that she’s lived in a lot of the same places I’ve lived, so her novels always feel like they’re playing…
I’ve just head about the shooting at Johns Hopkins (story here), and I’ve contacted my Aunt Theda to check on her. (While she does have her own practice, she still teaches folks at Johns Hopkins and is there from time to time.) Everything in fine with her, thank goodness. And thank you to everyone who let me know. xox
Look, folks, it’s just common sense. You don’t ask a woman how old she is, you don’t ask anyone how much they weigh, you don’t talk about politics or religion, and you don’t tell someone that you know they’ve unfollowed/unfriended you on the internet. There is absolutely no situation in which this doesn’t make the other person feel like…
Trade paperback, 278 pages of dystopian SF…Dark Futures is here! Lost track of which short story this is? Me too. (That’s why I keep this blog.) Inside Dark Futures is “Black Hole Sun”, my short story collaboration with Kelli Dunlap. According to the online bookstores, Dark Futures is already available. (only $10.76 at Amazon and B&N) Isn’t technology great?…
While I sit here and sort-of-watch Monday Night Football with the Fairy GodBoyfriend (FGB), I am reminiscing on the game from last night, notably the Redskins & Cowboys game in which the Cowboys lost in the last three seconds by simultaneously scoring a touchdown and a holding penalty. Yes, really. I don’t wish I was their coach last night….
One of the best things about Dragon*Con — I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — is the whole community of folks that keep it going. It’s constantly amazing how something so large can remain so fluid and consistent without exploding spectacularly into flames. Since the lovely folks there have been awesome enough to keep inviting me…
During my convalescence (ie: while watching Bones and sniffling like mad), I saw a nifty little Target commercial on Hulu. It was a woman in a Target Accessories section, debating as to whether she was the type of woman who wore hats. She then goes on to dream about a hat-wearing life as she strolls through an orchard wearing…
