[Conventions] SoonerCon 20
I was REALLY looking forward to SoonerCon this year. It’s the first of the “summer convention season” for me, and one I have enjoyed in the past. Not having the exhaustion of Scarborough on my back this year, I was ready. Fortunately (and unfortunately) the challenges to SoonerCon this year were in the traveling and [...]
[Writer Blog] Paying Forward – of a sort
First of all a SOONERCON Schedule change… The schedule sent to me said – Reading at 11 a.m. on Sunday. The grids show 30 min blocks for readings with me in the Second Slot – so I’ll be reading at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday after Jeff Provine. Still reading the OK set story – just [...]

Writerly Post – Writers and Dignity
We don’t need no stinkin’ dignity… I’ve just returned from SoonerCon in Oklahoma City. Except for one weird thing – they didn’t do autographing sessions at all, don’t know why – this was the best run, most fun SoonerCon I’ve been to. And the kicker? The hotel did not try to kill me this year. [...]

SoonerCon is Coming. SoonerCon is Coming

The End Is Nigh…And New Beginnings
Tomorrow is the final day for Scarborough Renaissance Festival. It’s a bittersweet time, since it’s like Summer Camp for me. We don’t do the “circuit” so we don’t travel with these folks. We’re vendors so we don’t spend two months rehearsing with the performers. I love that a lot are on Facebook and Twitter so [...]
Name that Bubbette
I’m doing something for the YDP Roadshow at SoonerCon which requires me to have a “Bubbette” name (in fact, I’m headin’ to the Dollar Tree to pick up parts of my costume). All the names I’m coming up with at the moment are being used by other YDP authors and artists… So… brush off your [...]
