Just a little bit rockstar….
So. I'm home again.
The bad news is that I haven't been online for more than ten days. There are more than 2000 messages waiting for me in my e-mail. More than 500 pieces of fanmail. Two dozen packages are waiting for me downstairs, unopened. I hope none of them contain food. Or, like, a puppy.

First editions, a conversation, and another interview…
Heya everybody.
I've been on tour for a week now, and this is one of the few times when I've had enough time to get online.
I've got a bunch of stories from the first week of the tour, and a few pictures too. Hopefully I'll be able to post them up in a blog in a [...]

Our Story Thus Far…..
Over the last few weeks, a lot of people have e-mailed me, asking if a summary of The Name of the Wind somewhere that they can use to refresh themselves before starting The Wise Man's Fear.
I had no such thing. Nor did I really have any desire to write one. Not only do those brief [...]

FAQ: The Wise Man's Fear Signing Tour
Ever since I posted up the schedule for my upcoming signing tour, people have been asking a lot of questions.

This has been a good thing. Your questions made me think about the tour in ways I wouldn't have considered otherwise. I've spent weeks figuring things out, [...]

An open letter to Nathan Fillion
Mr. Fillion,
First, I have to say that I admire your work. I've read many of your interviews and have come to respect you not only as a truly fine actor, but as an uncommonly intelligent human being.
But let's get straight to the heart of the matter. It has come to my attention that in a [...]

A taste of things to come…
I got an unexpected package in the mail the other day. It was a poster tube from my good friend and Nathan Taylor.
Nate is the guy who illustrated The Adventures of the Princess and Mr. Whiffle. He's also the one who did the Kvothe Online comic I put up on the blog a while back.

Signed Copies of The Wise Man's Fear: Part II
A couple weeks ago I took a trip out to New York to meet up with my publisher and do some promotional stuff. I did a video interview. Recorded a podcast. And, as I've already mentioned, I got to touch and hold my first-ever copy of The Wise Man's Fear.
I also signed some books. Kind [...]

My Sweet…
I talk about a lot of things here on the blog. I answer fanmail. I tell stories. I ramble and pontificate.
But it's on days like this, days that center around kisses and chocolate, that I realize I've never really gone out of my way to mention a very special woman in my life.
Those of you [...]

Nightmares and Signings
This is a nervous time for me.
I'm used to being actively involved in my book. I tinker with it endlessly. I revise and edit, constantly trying to make it just a little bit better….
But now The Wise Man's Fear is out of my hands. I'm helpless. All I can do is wait and see how [...]
