Now I have the Scooby-doo theme song in my head. :\

I must say, I got rather spoiled watching the series on Netflix. Watching it last week on regular TV, I found myself getting annoyed with the commercials. Plus, I couldn't just click the remote and pull up the next episode, which totally bites.

Also--do they always do that with the "scenes from next week"? That whole "here are five seconds of different people looking shocked and horrified, and maybe screaming, with no context whatsoever" thing?

Anyway, yay for Tuesday an...

This is from yesterday's panel on humor in fiction. Obviously I was being hilarious.  ;)

(Pictured with Jeff Markowitz. Also on the panel: Penny Petersen and Lane Stone, moderated by Sandra Bowman of Intrigue Publishing.)

Did I mention cons?

I'll be attending two in October.

At C3, I've been assigned the panels for Tickling that funny bone in fiction and Sex, sex and more sex; exploring strange bedfellows in crime/fantastic fiction. (Apparently, someone has seen what I write. :/ )

At Nijicon, I'll be hosting the DSP table with Gus Li and Margeurite Labbe.

Anyone who'll be in the area(s), let me know, I'd love to see you!

Okay, no it doesn't. But! But! I already had the boots because I am a total boot slut and I have all the...

Angels and other distractions

So, I have recently, and very reluctantly, given in and binge-watched all 9 seasons of Supernatural. I say "reluctantly" not because I disdained the show, or had no interest in it, but because I really didn't have time OMG! to be investing that much of it. I was trying to finish BoB! I was working on a Joint Project That Shall Not Be Named! I was knee-deep in new Wolf's-own proofs for the re-releases! I was training a dog! I was... doing other stuff!

STUFF!

But, Thirddaughter...

Some addictive fun!

My secret crush, the fabulous  bluesimplicity sent me this, and since I've just spent almost an hour I didn't have to spare scrolling (and scrolling and scrolling!) I figured I'd sabotage your productive hours too.

Mwahahahahahaha! (<----evil laughter)
