November 15, 2015 Orycon 37 I will be lowering the panelist quality of Orycon once again this year. I’m happy to do it, let me tell you. Enough with the qualified, entertaining, and successful authors hogging the panels. Someone has to draw a line in the sand. And that line is me. Orycon begins this… Continue reading Orycon 37.

Pounding the Pavement and Knocking on Doors. Resurrected Post.
November 8, 2015 Pounding the Pavement and Knocking on Doors Taking a look at the calendar, I noticed that the next couple of months will call frequently on my woefully lacking marketing skills. Oh, joy. Promotion. What’s that rising up within? Heartburn? Acid reflux? Incipient panic? Some of us prefer to remain unnoticed, to blend,… Continue reading Pounding the Pavement and Knocking on Doors. Resurrected Post.
Playing Catch Up. Resurrected Post.
November 1, 2015 Playing Catch Up It would be a stretch to say I’ve caught up on my movie viewing. But I did drop a few bucks at the Red Box while the rest of my family was in Mexico for a week and a half. Thus I was able to see a few of… Continue reading Playing Catch Up. Resurrected Post.
Brewing. Resurrected Post.
October 25, 2015 Brewing I got out the brew kettle yesterday. It’s been a while since I whipped up a batch of beer, but the entire process felt familiar and proceeded smoothly. And, of course, the kitchen smelled wonderful. The kitchen also required a thorough cleaning, but creating a bit of a mess is an… Continue reading Brewing. Resurrected Post.

This may be typical of the nigh-two year population at large: I don’t know; this is my first trip down fatherhood lane. V.V.’s latest obsession is… Continue reading Tardy Film Review: Big Hero 6.

Sterling Lanier: Appendix N Meets the Apocalypse. Resurrected Post.
October 11, 2015 Sterling Lanier: Appendix N Meets the Apocalypse For many, the 1980’s were years shadowed by the specter of nuclear war. I never worried about it. But nuclear war — the chances, the scenarios, the aftermath — fueled the creations of filmmakers, writers, musicians, etc. It was the decade that brought Kris Kristofferson’s… Continue reading Sterling Lanier: Appendix N Meets the Apocalypse.

Hello Blank Page, My Old Friend. Resurrected Post.
October 4, 2015 Hello Blank Page, My Old Friend Beginning a new project is both exhilarating and daunting. The notebook or the blank document sits before you, an expanse of empty white space waiting for you to fill it with words. There is a great degree of freedom promised by the empty page. You can… Continue reading Hello Blank Page, My Old Friend. Resurrected Post.
The Shotgun Approach. Resurrected Post.
September 27, 2015 The Shotgun Approach I prefer to outline before I begin writing. I want a blueprint for the general structure in place, a scaffolding built to give me purchase from which to work. But once that’s done, I have to fill those empty space I reach from the scaffolding. Sometimes I have a… Continue reading The Shotgun Approach. Resurrected Post.
