      A few friends and fellow authors are running a book giveaway bundle. Check it out – five books, signed, and you could win them.  I’ve read two of these (through no planning, the ones on each end) and know the names of the other authors, mostly. Some good stuff here, even if you don’t…

    So I know I said I wasn’t doing cons for the forseeable future. I’m not. But if you happen to be at this one you’ll be able to find me at Booth 520 all weekend. I’m hanging out with friend and fellow author James Young, who will be hawking his excellent books, his lovely wife…

    James Young is guesting over at the Mad Genius Club today with a post on lines authors should think hard about before crossing, and it’s a lengthy but worthwhile read. “Y’all talk about torturing your characters… are there any lines you won’t cross?” Well…you’d have thought I’d been handing out briefcases of cash with complimentary…

    As my readers likely realize, I know most of the authors in this series to one extent or another. That is, after all, how I get the chutzpah to ask them for a moment of their busy time to talk to a nutty lady about food and cooking. James Young is no exception. I met…

    While I’m away from keyboard – or home, anyway, since in all honesty I have multiple keyboards with me – I knew I wouldn’t have the time to read and review for the blog. So I asked some friends to give me links to promote their stuff, instead of mine. Or even promoting just one…

    This is a guest post by my First Reader, referencing a social phenomenon that has been making him a wee bit grouchy recently. If you’d like to learn more about what an SJW is, and what it does, I’d suggest looking here.  Curmudgeon’s Corner Authors write books; it’s what they do. Scientists land spaceships on…

    I’m a huge Mil-SF (military science fiction) fan. I have been since I discovered Drake and Ringo and I haven’t looked back. I find I’m much more partial to the books by those two authors: epic, ground battles, and the struggle of the common soldier. The grand sweeping space battles tend to leave me cold.…

    First of all, I’m back, and I’m sorry for my lack of planning! I thought I would have a few minutes to put up a post Saturday and yesterday, and it didn’t happen. Next year, I will plan ahead for this. We arrived in Tennessee on Thursday, early, treating that first day as a vacation…
