I’d like to take a moment to discuss the state of Georgia’s recent execution of Troy Davis (September 21, 2011 at 11:08 p.m. Eastern Time). Yes, I know. This is a writing blog. But I am a political person, and I can’t let this go. I would venture that, like me, the vast majority of

Another Foolscap has come and gone, and I am left facing the inevitable approach of Autumn with memories and a stack of business cards and bookmarks. I did the math on Saturday night, sitting at the far end of a 15 person (approximately) dinner party with Omaha Sternberg, Janna Silverstein, Rosemary Jones, and Phoebe Matthews

Foolscap is coming up next weekend. If you’re not familiar with the Foolscap convention, answer these three questions: Do you like sci-fi/fantasy fiction and art? I’m not talking movies or tv, here. I mean the flat stuff. Are you a writer or artist of the above either a) just getting your foot in the door,

I know. I’ve been bad. Projects eating my time–and by default my brain. I haven’t even updated with a Fringe Candy post, and I have so many things to share on that topic thanks to a care package of weird candy from a fellow candy deviant. But there’s a thing that separates writers from sane

I know what you might be thinking. Didn’t you already do a chocolate bar recently? Yes. I did. Now sit down. Tonight’s post started as a tribute to England. With the riots in London and surrounding cities going on, old Blighty has been on my mind. I always associated the delightfully crisp goodness of the

It feels like the Timid Pirate crew has been working on this forever, but the day is finally here where I can reveal the lineup for the Dark Carnival! Table of Contents Apples and Arrows by Minerva Zimmerman Funhouse by Erik Scott de Bie (featuring Stardust) Harrigan the Magnificent by Matt Adams Custody Battle by

I’ve been in a Cobalt City state of mind recently. Seeing as how I’m deep in edits on the new Dark Carnival anthology for this fall, writing new podcast scripts, and formatting one of the novels, it makes sense that the city would be on my mind. But the fun thing is that Cobalt City

First made in 1893 by the Quaker City Confectionary Company, the Good ‘n Plenty is now made and distributed by Hershy’s. You might ask what makes it a fringe candy. My defense is two-fold – over 100 years old, and with a black licorice heart. I’ll let guest blogger Rosemary Jones take it from here.
