I’m not quite sure at what point I fell in love with Howard A. Jones’s novel The Desert of Souls–I could open the book to find out, but then I’d get stuck reading it all the way to the end again, and my schedule will not allow it! Suffice it to say, it was somewhere in the first two…
While today’s Month of Writers victim and I have never met in person (at least…I don’t *think* we’ve ever met in person, and if we have, then Gareth is free to blatantly trip me the next time he sees me), he and I still seem to swap a lot of chat on Twitter in the wee hours of the…
May’s Month of Writers continues! Today I would like to introduce you to up-and-coming SF author C.L. Holland. She doesn’t have an author photo. Or she’s wanted by Interpol. I haven’t quite figured out which yet. Oh, and she’s British…so her answers really *are* spelled correctly. **************************************** Mac or PC? CLH: PC (it’s the system that Techdad knows). Coffee…
May’s Month of Writers continues — today’s victim of my little interview-questionnaire is SF author Tony Frazier. Be sure to stop by Tony’s site after this, on which he’s releasing, chapter-by-chapter, a superhero novel. (Which means, of course, that he can’t pick a favorite in the superpower question… I love being a geek.) According to this picture (that I…
With all these interviews at hand, I believe I shall dub May 2011 my Month of Writers, here on the blog.Be sure to drop by next week–Magical Words Week — when I interview several of the contributors to the Magical Words writing blog. Today my guest is fellow Codexian and Orson Scott Card Bootcamper, fledgling speculative fiction author Kat…
Today my writerly victim is Nancy Fulda, Phobos Award winner and creator of the phenomenal Anthology Builder website (on which I am a Featured Author this month — create an anthology including one of my stories and get $1 off!). Nancy is a true wunderkind — and as she lives in Germany, I am completely justified in saying that….
Back on “Take Your Princesses-in-Training to Work” Day, Ariell and Kassidy helped me create a great questionnaire that I could send out to the ever-growing list of authors on my to-interview-list. After I sent the interview out, Ariell then started formatting all the interviews into posts for me. Hooray! We start with my dearest longtime friend, Luc Reid. (Some…
I woke up my car this morning. It’s unique to those of is seasoned conventionistas, that grumbly sound your vehicle makes when you turn the key and politely ask it to dust off the cobwebs and rub the three-day sleep out of its gears. It’s a beautiful sound, full of shiny memories and the anticipation of seeing my own…
New reviews are up at Orson Scott Card’s Intergalactic Medicine Show! Title: Fuzzy Nation Author: John Scalzi EAN: 9780765328540 Admit it: it’s a strange title. I figured it was about animals (a lot of animals), or a bunch of fetishists, or a country of very hirsute folk. Regardless of the title, I am a pretty big fan of the…
…I’ll add a bit more to your podcasty day. There’s a great interview on Pendragon Variety on writing and editing and sundries with my good friend Edmund Schubert, writer and editor of Orson Scott Card’s Intergalactic Medicine Show. I highly recommend it. There are some good things in here. Plus, Edmund has a GREAT speaking voice. Hearing it just…
