Bubble & Squeek
June 14, 2023

Life continues to move on. A lot good. Some not-so-good. Busy working in the background. Have some Bubble & Squeek!

Conventions: My Gen Con Writers Symposium panel and workshop schedule. Take a look and if you are interested in the workshops, sign up. They tend to sell out quickly. I also have a signing and a “meet the pros” gathering.

Conventions: Look who is the Editor Guest of Honor of OryCon in November. (Spoiler alert: It’s me!)

On Demand Class: Self-Editing: From First Splat to Professional Finish by me is available on demand at Cat Rambo’s Academy for Wayward Writers along with a whole host of other classes.

Pin Release: Originally a convention exclusive but now available online, this is the Good Omens pin me and Alina Pete designed. Head to Sevenish Magpies to take a look. It’s so pretty!

Review: A lovely review of my Bram Stoker nominated YA zombie novel, Last Days of Salton Academy.

Support: As always… if you appreciate my work and would like to support me, I love coffee. I am made of caffeine. This is the quickest way to brighten my day.

Wishlist: As someone who flirts with the idea of audiobook narration and podcast narration…and the idea of reading my antique occult collection online, I am in lust with the idea of this: the Studio Brick acoustic booth. Isn’t it magnificent?

Tell Me – Kris Katzen

Tell Me
September 2, 2020

Today Kris Katzen tells me about fighting imposter syndrome to take on one of her favorite genres: Superheroes. I’ve always loved superheroes. I like the action and the adventure, the humor and the camaraderie, and the good guys winning—most especially the good guys winning. I don’t do dark or dour or grim. Nothing wrong with any of that, it’s just not my thing. I’d wanted to write a superheroes novel for a long time, and finally I took the plunge. Then—in the best tradition of superhero stories—stuff got in the way, and the project didn’t go nearly as fast as I’d wanted. Although I eagerly dove in, Escapes ended up on the back burner for quite a while. By that, I mean for years, not just for weeks or months. Life and a bunch of other writing projects intervened, so once I could take it off the back burner, I...

August 12, 2013

Spo Con was a quiet little convention with intense fans. Seriously. For a small con, its members went all out in costuming, game playing, and panels. There were some hiccups but all of the Spo Con volunteers were calm and professional. It was nice. And all of the writing panels were packed—standing room only. After a very good business dinner with Kaja and Phil Foglio of Girl Genius fame (there are some very fun things on the rise!), the Husband and I headed back home Saturday night. Too many things to do before Gen Con. My favorite moment of the convention was when a fan came up to me with 6 of my books and asked me to sign them, saying, “If the book’s got your name on it, I know I’m going to like it.” We spent about 110 miles driving through the most awesome thunderstorm. I have never...
