February 15, 2015 Pesky Real Life I held a giveaway contest for “Reunion” recently. Congratulations to the winners. I hope you all enjoy the novel. I seem to be doing quite a bit of giving recently, mostly money. Real life continues to stick its nose under the tent flap of my world-building, fabulizing, tale-crafting pavilion.… Continue reading Pesky Real Life. Resurrected Post.

VFW Book Signing. Resurrected Post.
December 14, 2014 VFW Book Signing Yesterday I held a signing at a Veterans of Foreign Wars event. I truly hope those who purchased “Reunion” enjoy it; these aren’t folks I’d care to disappoint. They risked quite a bit for the country, the least I can do is provide some competent entertainment. I like… Continue reading VFW Book Signing. Resurrected Post.
Increments. Resurrected Post.
December 7, 2014 Increments My wife endured a car accident yesterday. She’s fine, for the most part. I took her to a clinic for evaluation: She probably suffered some minor whiplash, and I’m watching her for signs of concussion. Puts me on nurse duty and full time baby care for the weekend. Dole out the… Continue reading Increments. Resurrected Post.

Orycon 36 Wrap Up. Resurrected Post.
November 9, 2014 Orycon 36 Wrap Up Another Orycon recedes in the rear view mirror. My second as a panelist. I felt more comfortable in the role this year and had a good time.

I don’t want to bore anyone with… Continue reading Transitions. Resurrected Post.
Book Signing, Once Again (Resurrected Post)
July 20, 2014 Book Signing, Once Again Honestly I would have considered the event a success if I’d only sold a single copy. So I left the signing yesterday more than contented. I’d like to thank Jan’s Paperbacks for hosting the event. Also Jack Whitsel for suggesting that I join him at the table. I… Continue reading Book Signing, Once Again (Resurrected Post)
The State of the Web Log. Plus A Trip To Nashville
The state of the web log is…unfortunate. I tried to post last week only to discover that my entire website had gone missing. With the assistance of a helpful freelance IT specialist from Bangladesh I was able to recover enough that at least the place is functional, though poorly furnished. Of over 400 posts, only… Continue reading The State of the Web Log. Plus A Trip To Nashville
The Big Grift Post
I have made no secret in these posts that I write a bit of fiction now and then. At least I believe I haven’t kept it a secret. If I’m mistaken, well, allow me to correct that: My name is Ken Lizzi and I’m a writer. And I don’t intend to quit, cold turkey or… Continue reading The Big Grift Post
