In another day, I will be departing for World Fantasy Convention in Columbus, Ohio to meet up with 950 or so other authors, editors, publishers, artists and fans in the professional speculative fiction business. This is only my second con and my first major con, so, naturally, I am very excited, but most exciting of [ Read More ]
Well written and powerful, it’s easy to see why Paolo Bacigalupi’s “The Windup Girl” has been so acclaimed and awarded. The story of people in the Thai Kingdom, somewhere in the future, the story is told through multiple points of view – the American factory owner/agent who is using the factory as a cover; the [ Read More ]
These comments very much address how I feel about the Elizabeth Moon controversy and unfair treatment and villianizing of her by other parties. And in general, they also address how the Left browbeats anyone who doesn’t agree with them in the name of intolerance, showing their own intolerance as they do so. Both sides are [ Read More ]

Dear Friends: Some of you have been praying for me or at least are aware that as of next week I will have been unemployed 6 months. As of Sunday, my part time job also is going away. They wanted someone permanent not someone who might well need to take off. So I am going [ Read More ]
Saw two movies this week which impacted me in unique and unexpected ways and I just had to review them. An odd combination, both “Social Network” and “Eat,Pray,Love” were not high atop my must see movies lists, and yet for various reasons, I saw them and I enjoyed both far more than I could have [ Read More ]
I saw a hilarious demonstration of how some people are so biased, they refuse to think things through critically when Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg got so mad at something Bill O’Reilly said that they walked off the set. O’Reilly quoted a poll which showed that the majority of 9/11 families and Americans don’t want [ Read More ]
Okay, took a little hiatus after the last post, for obvious reasons. I am feeling better, although life isn’t. In two weeks, I will be totally unemployed, and although neither of my recent employers will go down on my list as pleasurable memories in most ways, co-workers and others will be missed. We do feel [ Read More ]
It’s been a hard decision whether or not to blog about this. First, I wonder if anyone cares? Does anyone even read this blog? I rarely ever get comments. I am running a sale on my book for the first 15 who comment on my last entry, and after two days, I have 1 comment. [ Read More ]
Attended my first book sale/signing this weekend at the La Viña Winery Harvest Festival. We were situated right next to the very loud music stage in the El Paso Writers’ League booth. The booth was nice and it was loaded with books by our members. I sold 3 Saturday and 2 Sunday, but that was [ Read More ]
