Read & Watched Lately (May 2007)
A back injury in mid-May landed me on my back, in pain. Which meant I got a lot of reading done this month, not only books I’ve been meaning to get to, but also the chance to catch up on my magazine subscriptions. Of course, I have a new copy of both Interzone and F&SF, […]
Au Privave
Not a jazz post. Just a note: I’ve posted a few things on private setting. If you sign in, you can see them. Or friends signed in at livejournal can also see them on my LJ, which mirrors my content here. Sensitive subjects or private ones.

More real content coming soon, including some big news as soon as the contract is inked. Until then, here’s my girlfriend’s Meez to amuse you.

Those who are paying attention to my sidebar might have noticed I’ve been doing a tremendous amount of reading in the last week, at least compared to usual. I’m caught up on my subscriptions to F&SF and InterZone, with one issue of […]
Ow Ow Ow
Back pain. Doing better. Not writing or posting much. That’s why.
Reading a lot, though, while stuck on my back doing stretches and resting my weary back muscles.

The Clarion West Write-a-Thon is On!
The Clarion West Writer's Workshop has been responsible for starting many people on the road to publication and careers in writing. It has been an unstinting supporter of creativity and of the next generation of writers for decades.
But it doesn't run itself. It takes time, energy, and even with volunteers, it takes money. The write-a-thon is one way to raise the funds that keep the workshop going.
