Friday wrap-up

I apologize for the hasty, drive-by nature of this post – but I'm afraid it's all I have time for at the moment. Between a couple hours worth of Writer Business(tm) emails, a morning full of day-job work, and a husband's birthday to prepare for … it's been a jam-packed day. And it's not over yet!

But I didn't want to close the week with nothing but silence, so here you go. It's a roundup of links, yes – but they are not all Dreadnought-related, so I can't call this a Dreadnought Channel update or anything. What we've got here is miscellany, and I wish you happy clicking thereupon:

Help my brother with his homework – No, it's cool, I promise – a case study project about Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity. Go click around, leave him comments, tell him how you feel.

Speaking of homework – In an update to the tale of the student with the Boneshaker book report, as mentioned in a previous post: I have been informed by the young man in question that he received an "A". At the risk of sounding egregiously biased, he totally deserved it.

Phoenix ComicCon – I suppose this makes it official – I'll be appearing as a guest of this fine event at the end of May! (We agreed to this a few months ago, but it's only just now become public. That's how these things work, sometimes.)

TeslaCon's opening credits – This was played at the opening ceremonies, on a big screen … and it pretty much rocked like hell. Very nicely it did set the stage for the weekend which was to come. A very stirring production all around!

Tor's Steampunk News Letter – Whether or not you care about steampunk newsletters, you might be interested in seeing the fat spanky give-away package Tor is offering if you'll sign up to receive it. I know at least one reader signed himself up as "The Goddamn Batman" but I don't know how that worked out for him.



Okay, that's all I've got for now. Have a good weekend, everyone!
