[Writer Post] Inspired but Exhausted
So, FenCon happened. Blog done. Move along now… Oh, wait, you wanted more? Oh, okay. I guess a blog post should be more than a sentence or a line. FenCon was actually fantastic. There were a few bumps in the beginning, but there always are (and some flight glitches – but that happens as well). […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] A Delayed and Impromtu Review – Late
I didn’t get a blog up yesterday. Not even a rerun. I was involved with FenCon until about 2pm yesterday. Though I managed to get all of last week’s blogs up and running, this one did not happen. I did pick up an AMAZING promotional pen from Lee Killough. It’s a space shuttle pen. Writes […]
[Writer Post] Head in the Game with FenCon Brain
So , today kicks off FenCon Setup – which starts the marathon days for me until Monday afternoon. I deal with the Day Job until 5 pm then meet Jimmy to head over to the hotel to start load in at 6 pm. FenCon has been eating my brain for the last month – that […]
[Spotlight Post] FenCon’s Meredith Hines
This week’s spotlight post is an unsung hero in a lot of ways and a really cool person. Today, I give you someone you may not know, even if you’re in the DFW area – Meredith Hines. Meredith is a burgeoning writer, lover of owls, chocolate and all around SWELL PERSON. When she gets her […]
[Writer Post] FenCon X Preliminary Schedule
It’s a Wednesday Writer Blog Day… and basically all I’ve got the brain power for today is posting my preliminary FenCon Schedule. It doesn’t look like a lot, but it is for me because I’m on staff and am running around like a headless chicken during this thing – which is why if you say […]
[Spotlight Post] Humans in Space Youth Art Competition
Happy Friday! It’s a seriously gray and gloomy day here with rain as far as the eye can see – which we desperately need. Very grateful for the rain, but it’s not helping me decide what to write for a spotlight. This seems to be one of those “Deep Breath†weeks. There hasn’t been quite […]
[Writer Post] Staying Afloat
So, this is Wednesday. That means blog post day – and I’m having trouble stringing coherent words together. Because not only is it Chaos Season (yes, there is one), Ragweed decided to throw a week-long party and invited all its little allergen friends. And along with some unexpected changes and expenses since I last wrote […]
[Writer Post] I Want A Do Over
The last week has been one of loss, frustration, and ice cream in all realms of my life. My Day Job has changed some because my manager went on to a new opportunity. We’ve lost two people who were major presences in the Texas region of fandom. It’s the “crunch†time for both conventions I’m […]
[Writer Post] Crazy Busy Updaty Timey Wimey Stuff
Suffering from a bit of “foot in mouth†disease today, but hey, I brought cupcakes, so hopefully that counters the slip of the tongue. So…updates… I’m stupid busy this week. What else is new? I have a half-finished short story for an end of the month deadline. Of course, then the freelance gig I have […]
[Spotlight Post] The Cats of Tanglewood Forest by de Lint and Vess
It’s Friday – and I’m supposed to be coming up with a Spotlight. “Supposed†to being an operative word. Between allergy meds and some “people suck†news. I think I’ll just tell you about the book I’m currently reading. I do know that, in fact, MOST people do not suck, but the ones that do? […]
