A few years ago I ventured into the virtual world of Second Life, a free online world where you can wander anywhere and anywhen, taking up different avatars and accessories as you wanted to. I landed in a steampunk sim called New Babbage – a quaint little town with a few little quirks. Not that […]

Well, it’s been a pretty good two weeks of promotion since the book came out. I’ve had a few SL chats with people and some I know have gone on to buy the book itself. And there’s more to come in Second Life, which suits me just fine. The oddity I’m finding in SL is […]

‘Cause, you know, I’m insane. I’ve decided to toss my hat into the NaNoWriMo ring yet against this year for a variety of reasons – first, and mostly, being that I have sold my 2007 and 2008 NaNo novels – "What God and Cats Know" and "Blaze of Glory" respectively, and thus I’m trapped in […]

Been recovering from both the Pennwriters Conference and the request for a partial from an agent, which meant that last week was mostly recovering from putting together the package and getting things back to normal. Well, sort of. For this household, that is. Realised that I’d love to do a seminar for the next Conference […]

Well, still hammering on "Blaze of Glory" to make sure it’s all polished up and special to go out in the mail this weekend… of course, I keep getting distracted by buying pretty baubles in Second Life for me avatar! *chuckles* I attended the Walt Whitman discussion last night again, although lag problems had us […]

Had a great time at the Pennwriters conference up here in Pittsburgh; did my moderator co-ordinator thang and ran around like a fool getting things done, but it was Good. Good as in getting not one, but TWO surprise chances to pitch "Blaze of Glory" to agents that suddenly had a hole in their schedule. One […]
