ConQuesT 44 Followup

Went to the convention over the weekend. More fun than I expected.

Patrick Rothfuss is the funniest person I have heard in a long time.

George RR Martin read from one of his unpublished works. Aegon's Conquest. Good stuff.

I will be publishing a summary article on Amazing Stories next week.

This week my interview with James SA Corey. Or at least half of him.

I'll post the link on Wednesday.

IM3

Saw Iron Man 3 last night. You can tell there is a new director. Very distinct difference.

Overall I enjoyed it. Thought it was well done. I would rank it 3rd of the three Iron Man movies.

If you are an Iron Man fan, it is worth watching.

Stay until the end of the credits.

Amazing for 05/15/13

This weeks blog on Amazing Stories looks at the Golden Age of Science Fiction.

I'm thinking I would have rather titled it "Recalibrating the Golden Age"

Hope you enjoy.

Research

Finishing a bit of research this week for Stormwatch. I think the final pieces have dropped into place.

Looking forward to wrapping this up and then returning to Aza'kor.

Amazing Stories

With the deadlines pushed up a day on amazing stories, I will be publishing a list of top ten Star Wars computer games this Wednesday instead of my intended article.

I'll post the URL on Wednesday.

Now back to watching for storms.

Home again

Been travelling the last couple of weeks. Have seen many interesting and thought provoking things.

Anxious to pound they keyboard hard once again rather than waiting in lines and struggling with the key to my hotel room door.

Stormwatch final kick on the way, then back to Aza'kor.
