On Creating Stuff, All Girl-Like and Shit
Challenging people online is relatively (relatively!) easy, but challenging people in person is much, much harder. Batgirl can tell you all about it. I remember being at my first World Fantasy convention and seeing Daniel Abraham walk across the floor toward me and hold out his hand and I thought, “Oh sweet Jesus he’s totally

When You’re Going Through Hell… Keep Going
I was never a fit kid. I started this blog in part to talk about my path toward some semblance of fitness after a sedentary period in South Africa spent sparring with cockroaches, drinking too much red wine, smoking too many cigarettes, and binge eating (a default I have fought long and hard to overcome).

“This is not my beautiful house…”
I was raised by hard-working parents, the sort who worked fast food jobs during my early years – nights, weekends, holidays – and a grandmother who grew up in Nazi-occupied France. For some reason, this upbringing more or less resulted in me never expecting good things to last. Good things could certainly come

Mechanique: The Fighting Circus is In Town
I had heard Genevieve Valentine’s name around a bit (it’s such a marketable name!), but, not being much of a short story reader, had never read anything from her. Folks who knew my reading tastes recommended this one to me… and, of course, we have the same agent, and I do know that Jenn has

Comments Closed, but the Blog’s Still Open!
I’ve been gnawing over the pros and cons of closing comments on my blog for some time – since December, actually, about the time God’s War was getting ready to launch. I knew that books getting out in the world meant new potential readers on all of my social sites. Every time my circle of
