The Suvudu Free Book Library is a great place where, in their words, “you can read the first book in some of our most acclaimed series absolutely free!” They’re kicking things off with five full-length novels, but they’ll be adding new titles on a regular … [Read more...]
File Under: Truth is Stranger Than Fiction
I have a friend who has a friend (let’s call him Surfer Dude), and one day several months ago we were all introduced for the first time, and then proceeded to hang out, have lunch, play tourist—basically, have a lovely time. So, several weeks ago, my friend forwards … [Read more...]
Excuse me, while I chain myself to the desk.
My Joseph Campbell thought for the day, as I fight, fight, fight to finish this book: Writer’s block results from too much head. Cut off your head. Pegasus, poetry, was born of Medusa when her head was cut off. You have to be reckless when writing. Be as crazy as … [Read more...]
Links of this and that…

A view from inside…
Yes, the new library—or a small piece of it. As I’ve told others, I nearly burst into tears when I first saw the room. All these Amish guys were in there, hammering away, and they looked at me like I was very sweetly crazy. They’ve said they … [Read more...]
More than you really want to know about me and Macintosh computers…
I will say this, mornings always make everything better. Some questions that have been asked in the comments (I will be getting to them all, but here’s a scattering): Mitch: I was wondering, what should I read to prepare myself for Dark Wolverine? I don’t … [Read more...]
Hold on tight
I still have another interview or two to post from behind-the-scenes at NYX, but that will keep until next week. Right now, I’m deep into finishing up a book that has given me far more trouble than it should have. I mean, every book has its own ups and … [Read more...]
