Back from Mo*Con. Had a full night’s sleep and then some. I dreamt about the most wonderful people in the world, about rainbows and flowers and shooting stars, about cemeteries and dark woods and a knight to watch over me. And this time the cops didn’t show up. I promise a con report (and pictures!!) when I’m more lucid….
Went geocaching in the cemetery with Mark Rainey, and the Mother Grove concert was FANTASTIC. You wish you were here!!
Ironman, Batman, Hellboy, Hulk–it’s certainly a splendid summer of superheroes at the cinema! Are your young adult readers hungry for more? Check out Chance Fortune and the Outlaws (The Adventures of Chance Fortune) –a superhero cut from a slightly different cloth. Join me as I infiltrate the lair of creator Shane Berryhill to find out more about what makes…
Yay! My first-ever sale to Shimmer! I am very honored. “The Giantand The Unicorn” will appear in the infamous Clockwork Jungle issue. It’s a clockwork retelling of Aesop’s “The Lion and the Mouse.” I am totally bringing unicorns back. Watch me. 🙂
Fred’s got the Hypericon schedule hammered out. If you think it looks pretty light, just keep in mind that I’ll also be on every panel Deb LeBlanc decides to pull me on at the last minute. If you make no other panel, be sure to get to DREAM CRUSHING 101. Janet and I don’t need leather or whips. It…
I had a moment this afternoon that crossed over into surreal — I went to drop my car off for an oil change and proceeded to walk home (my house is only about 2 blocks from the Goodyear). Ten feet from the building, it started raining from the one little black raincloud over my head. Which was both funny…
“I need some distraction, oh beautiful releaseMemory seeps from my veins…”–Sarah McLachlan, “Angel” There is a mouse in my house. I was sitting in the middle of my living room floor, surrounded by obsessive compulsive piles of papers as I go through long-procrastinated boxes of junk and watch the movies that John has been piling up on my doorstep….
Maurice wrote a lovely post a couple of weeks ago in his Friday Night Date Place series called True Beauty. And there’s a great picture in there of us from Once Upon a Time at World Horror Convention. “Beauty sometimes needs to be drawn out. Better stated, sometimes beauty doesn’t recognize its own preciousness.” –M. Broaddus Yeah, I got…
It’s that time of year — we’re rapidly approaching JayCon VIII, and Ken Scholes is going to write yet another adventure of Jay Lake! But first…you have to put your vote in for the story title (and I made the short list! Woohoo!) — take 30 seconds and place your vote on Jay’s LJ: HERE.
Apparently Bob passed away on Wednesday, but lrainey just brought it to my attention. He was only 62. I had no idea he was such a legend in the SCA, but it makes sense. I will miss seeing him at Dragon*Con and various other conventions we frequented…he was someone who brought joy into my life, and I’m sorry that…
I’ve been a lot of things in my life,…
I’ve been waiting for over ten years to finally…
If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ve…
