The last time I did a full convention was a lot easier. I’m just sayin’. But in fairness, those earlier conventions were typically smaller and shorter con than Worldcon, I stayed on site the whole weekend instead of commuting 90 minutes each way, and they were all in the pre-Pandemic era so I was *mumble

So, I know superheroes. I have been a superhero dork since I was a kid. DC, Marvel, the various indies through the years. I absolutely love superheroes. Writing superhero novels and short fiction has been a huge part of my life as an author, making up more than half of my output over the last

Listen, I promise you I will start updating this blog more frequently. Really. Things have been ri-DONK-ulous lately. Let’s get everyone up to speed. Starting with the huge news.

Wow, what a blurry old photo! Look at those happy kids, their whole lives spread out ahead of them! Of course, that was 35 years ago, and life has a way of surprising you. I met Krista when I was in 8th grade. She had just transferred to our school and was involved in a

Here’s a curious aside. You sitting down? Ok, let’s go. With everything going on in my life and the world, my emotional energy to sit down and write has been pretty limited for a while. But as I’ve been getting back on that horse in the last few weeks, I have been going through some

Can we all just agree that the last few years have been, well, weird? Now that that’s out of the way, I am looking to take a modicum of control over the weird in the coming year. Because I’m a writer, and weird is what writers do. I haven’t been writing much this year for…reasons.
