…WHUT

So this morning when I was getting ready for church, I realized that I couldn’t find my Kindle.  Anywhere.  Remembering that I’d left it at a Quark event in my apartment’s lobby, I started frantically calling people and knocking doors.  Unfortunately, no one had seen it. A few hours later, after combing every place I… Continue reading …WHUT

Another publication in Leading Edge!

That’s right!  My poem “Zarmina,” dedicated to Gliese 581 g (the first exoplanet discovered in its sun’s habitable zone) is published on page 98 of issue 61 of Leading Edge! Also included in this issue is an excellent essay by Brandon Sanderson, in which he introduces his second law of magic systems.  It’s an excellent… Continue reading Another publication in Leading Edge!

I need a productivity boost

Yeah…today wasn’t that great.  I revised through about 2k words in Desert Stars, but none of it was new material, and I only worked on it for maybe 3 cumulative hours.  I’m working full time now, but even so, I can do better than this. My self-imposed deadline for Desert Stars is July 9th.  That… Continue reading I need a productivity boost

The blog tour rolls on

First, my next guest post in the Genesis Earth blog tour is up, this one at Charles Millhouse’s blog.  Charles is a… Continue reading The blog tour rolls on

Dude, check it out–my first radio interview just went live on the Dungeon Crawler’s Radio website! I met these guys at CONduit last month, where they had a booth and were recording all sorts of authors and artist.  They were way cool when I talked with them, and when they found out I was a… Continue reading First Radio interview and other such stuff

Ebook update

As many of you know, I epublished my first novel two weeks ago, and three short stories a few months before that.  How has it been going? First, let me point out that I have another guest post out as part of the Genesis Earth blog tour, this one on my friend Gamila’s blog.  Gamila… Continue reading Ebook update

New title and writing update

Just a quick update before I go to bed. After much deliberation, I decided to go with Desert Stars as a title.  Thanks, Megan, for suggesting it.  It’s a little short, and doesn’t exactly wow me, but I’ll try it out and see if I grow into it.  The most important thing anyway is what… Continue reading New title and writing update

AHHH! It’s uploaded!

That’s right; just a few minutes ago, I uploaded Genesis Earth to the Amazon Kindle store.  It’ll take about 24 hours to show up on the site, at which point the entire universe will implode and we’ll all become robots fighting for survival in an artificial reality.  So get ready! That beautiful image on the… Continue reading AHHH! It’s uploaded!

Stoked for CONduit and a sneak peek

CONduit starts tomorrow in Salt Lake City, and I am so stoked! This will be my third year in a row, and it looks like all the usuals are going to be there: Dan Wells, Howard Tayler, Dave Farland, L.E. Modesitt, Tracy and Laura Hickman–in other words, a whole bunch of awesome people.  It’s gonna… Continue reading Stoked for CONduit and a sneak peek
