Writing lessons and the writing life
From FreshFiction.com:
The RED GOLD BRIDGE by Patrice Sarath is written as the conclusion to GORDATH WOOD. It ties up the story very nicely, the multiple point of views work well with each other, and has a piercing plot. Although I recommend reading the first book, GORDATH WOOD, to fully [...]
Words: 1,000
Music: KGSR Broadcast Vol. 16
The new project was up to about 79,000 words until I cut it back down to 59,000. Now it’s about 60,000. It’s okay. That section is the core of another novel and it is waiting its turn in the queue. But it didn’t work in this novel, though it is [...]

When last I left the world of [...]
Of course there were things I forgot, and will still forget. But Michael Moorcock showing up to give Howard Waldrop an award on the first night of the con should not have been forgotten. A much better writeup is on Jayme Blaschke’s blog.
I can’t believe I forgot Maureen McHugh’s story, a creepy Victorian horror story. [...]
Armadillocon was quite fun — kudos to all the organizers! What a weekend. Scott Lynch, author of The Lies of Locke Lamora, was guest of honor, and it was just fantastic to meet him. Joan D. Vinge and James Frenkel were there — talk about the lions of the SF community. And of course all [...]
