Becoming Published
mirror-posted at Mad Genius Club Note to Mad Geniuses: yes, this is very simple, basic stuff, but it won’t hurt you to look at it, and there are many new readers who may be very interested. Also, I’m giving a talk today, at Chapters Books in Lebanon, OH, on this topic, and for those of you […]

Artwork and thoughts
I didn’t read anything this week, again. I had intended to, and I did do a review on Monday, since I read last week… what is my life coming to? I used to read several books a day. Then there was a book here and there, or a stolen hour in the bathtub with a […]

Men and Skirts
And no, I don’t mean kilts, which although they look like skirts, aren’t. No, I’m referring to an interesting phenomenon I’ve noted. It’s probably not new (is there anything in human nature that is new? It just comes around again and again) but it was new to me. I’m talking about a fear and loathing […]

Fury, Thy Name is…
Let me sum up. Using smaller words, because obviously some of you couldn’t follow what I was saying the first time. Those of you who got it, are excused from class… Imagine a class of kids, split roughly 50/50 boys and girls, the way classes in a normal culture are. Now picture them in a […]

Space Opera Snip the third
Third snip of the space opera novella. I think one more, next week sometime, and then I will publish. Which means I have to get moving on the cover! This morning, however, math. I keep thinking I’m going to get a handle on it and it will stop taking like umpteen hours of homework for […]

Monday Maunderings
I’m really tired this morning. Predictably (for me) I was sick over the weekend, including what I think was a migraine on top of a cold, yesterday. I was largely incoherent for most of the day yesterday, in too much pain to sleep, so I read. I can’t always read when I’m sick, and it […]

Trickster Noir – Snippet 6
So last week the beta readers got their copies of Trickster Noir, and now I wait anxiously the feedback they will deliver… I expect to have it all by the end of February, and then the editing begins. After my editing, the Editor gets the book for final edits, which will be March-ish. By April, […]

500 times
WordPress tells me this is my 500th blog post on this blog. It’s a milestone… I was thinking, again (a dangerous pasttime, I know) about this blog, and why I do it. It started out as a mommy blog, a way to share pictures and anecdotes of my family with far-flung relatives. Scattered updates, and […]

Fraidy Friday
Ok, so I owe you all a book review. Well, I haven’t read anything this week. Ok, I lie. I did read, lots, but no whole books. School work had rolled over me like Hokusai’s Wave, and I opened the kindle a few times, read the opening chapter of Peter Grant’s Adapt and Overcome (good […]
