Suvudu Cage Match….
Two years ago, Suvudu hosted a sci-fi fantasy cage match, where they pitted fictional characters against each other in a tournament style series of one-on-one fights.
It was a cool concept, and it led to interesting match ups like Cthulhu vs Lyra. Cthulhu being an omnipotent elder god from the outer darkness, and Lyra being a [...]

Yay Me!
Over the last year and a half a lot of folks have e-mailed me, asking if there's a place they can buy signed copies of my books.
Other folks email me because they *know* there's an online store, but they can't find it.
In the last year, I'd say I've had roughly ten billion e-mails of this [...]

Link Salad
I'm busy getting caught up on some a backlog of work so I can focus exclusively on writing after that, so today we have link salad.
First, here's an interview I did for the Denver Post a while back.
This interview ended up being a bit different. It was a phone interview. (That's not the different part.) And [...]

A New Addition to the Family
So just a couple days ago, The Wise Man's Fear came out in trade paperback.
(Cue the music from 2001.)
The new format looks even more monolith like than the hardcover. And in fact, there's only a few differences between the two:
1. It's cheaper.
2. It's smaller.
3. We fixed a couple typos.
4. The front cover is slightly different. [...]

Fabulous Prizes and BFF's
Okay. I think the problems with Wordpress should be sorted out by now. I'm pretty sure that means I can both post things and have things be seen by y'all out there in internetland. Which is nice.
At this point, a lot of people might be tempted to say something bitchy about Wordpress. Something along the [...]

Hello World….
Editor's note: I'm rushing to post this because I'm getting on a plane in a couple hours. Please forgive any grammar mistakes and the pointed lack of the Aristotelian unities in this post.
Today I'm mostly posting things up to see if I can. We had a bit of a panic yesterday, when the blog just [...]

Upcoming appearances and some Interviews
Okay. First and foremost, I have a couple of readings/signings/Q&A things coming up in these next couple weeks.
One of them is right here in Stevens Point at my local independent bookstore, Bookfinders. It's on Friday, Feb 24th, at 7:00. I've also heard that one of the cool local coffee shops will be providing treats for [...]

My First Google+ Video Hangout Thinger
I recently did a streaming video interview thing hosted by the fabulous Trey Ratcliff from Stuck in Customs.
The truth is, I'm a little bit of a Luddite. I don't skype. I lost my webcam months ago (don't ask me how) and I didn't bother replacing it. I think I'm the last person on earth that [...]
