[Writing Post] Adaptations are NOT as Easy as You Think
Last week was a major milestone for an author I know and admire – her Young Adult novel series became a web series on Geek and Sundry. Yes, I’m referring to Rachel Caine and the Morganville series. Jimmy and I were backers of her Kickstarter campaign to get this done, and I’m so thrilled for […]
[Writer Post] Tyler Rose City Comic Con
Last weekend was Tyler Rose City Comic Con (called thus because apparently Portland, OR has a Rose City Comic Con about a week before). This is a second year Comic Con – so there were some hiccups and growing pains, and the organizer looked kinda shell-shocked when we left. But in good ways. You see, […]
[Spotlight Post] Joan Rivers & Throne and Bones by Lou Anders
I mentioned on Friday that I would blog about a book and an author. I am going to do that, but I also have to mention a passing first. So a moment of respect for Joan Rivers. Yesterday we all heard the news of Joan Rivers’ passing. She was 81. She has always been part […]
[Spotlight Post] LeVar Burton & Carrie Vaughn
And now it’s Friday… Spotlight day. It’s been an active week. I’m getting the word out about LeVar Burton’s efforts on Kickstarter (not that he needs my help). LeVar Burton has been and continues to be more than “Geordi LaForge” on Star Trek: The Next Generation (though we do love him for that). He’s been […]
[Writer Blog] A Reading Weekend – Benson, Caine, and Cheney
This weekend I had a “reading” weekend. I went offline and read books. It was GLORIOUS. My husband and I do this a couple of times a year – usually in East Texas in a place that has intermittent cell signal – this time simply at home. In about a 48-hour period, I can get […]
[Spotlight Post] The Agatha H. Girl Genius Novels
It’s Friday Spotlight Day… It’s been yet another crazy week. BUT… tomorrow is Sci Fi Expo. We’ve been busy the last couple of weeks getting ready for back-to-back shows – as well as having friends on town, family stuff, car stuff, and other stuff.. .you know, the same-old-same-old.

[Writer Post] The Week That Is…And Upcoming Shows
So, this week’s writing blog… I wish I had something profound to say today about writing. But, I really don’t. This week has been busy getting ready for convention season and my other two writing jobs. The final version of Isabella the Brave has finally be printed – with the final cover (still DIY). I […]
[Spotlight Post] Lois McMaster Bujold and the Vorkosigan Saga
The first spotlight post of 2013… and as with the Writing Blog – I’m open for suggestions on who to feature here. If you have someone you’d like to see, feel free to send suggestions. I did mention in the Writer Post that I took Monday “off” and read a book for “fun”. It was […]
