Finally updating on a busy week
It’s been a long week, although highly productive. I’ve been working on new cover art for Blood Justice, edits for BLUM’s next release, and preparations for Readercon Committee meetings, all of which have been highly engrossing and time consuming. The … Continue reading

I’d rather be swimming…*sigh*
The weather is gorgeous and I got very spoiled last week. But, I’m mostly working on editing at the moment, taking a break between that and avoiding getting to cycling. My very first Blockbuster rent-by-mail DVD arrived today. I can … Continue reading

I already knew that Laura Schlessinger was a pin-headed, homophobic, arrogant, self-involved, narcissistic piece of slime…but this racist rant from her radio show simply takes my breath away. We should send her a white hood and a gasoline-soaked cross with … Continue reading

First fruits and gardens
Happy sidereal Lughnasadh, for those who attune to the earth and solar cycles! The Sun passed 15°00′ of Leo at 10:57 a.m. EDT, the precise midpoint between the Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox. Since those are (misleadingly and inaccurately) called … Continue reading

Oh, the power…
Google has asked for .epub files for Google Editions (which might, actually, some day, really launch!) by August 6. Plus, I’m looking to sign up with Kobobooks directly, and they need .epub files. Adobe InDesign CS5 will export to .epub. … Continue reading
