So I made Paste’s Best Twitter Accounts list. That’s three years running. I’m beginning to think I owe them money or something. Yes, I know, I said something about year end lists previously. But there’s something about the Paste list that is very edifying. Always has been. Look who else is on it! Um clears […]

The Year In Review
Yes, yes, yes. I know what I just wrote here. So what? This is my website. Some quick stats: Over 13,000 page views this year. For some people, that’s a good hour on their website. Or a few minutes. But that’s what I got all year. I think that’s less than 2012. I think I […]

Waiting for the Man Giveaway!
You can enter to win a copy of an ARC (advance reader copy) of my upcoming novel over at Goodreads. How fun is that? The contest is open December 4 to January 4 and is open to residents of the US and Canada (sorry everyone else in the world… for real). So go for it! […]
First Page of the ECW Press Spring 2014 Catalog
Right here. Looks kinda awesome, no?
An Appearance on British television
BSkyB is Rupert Murdoch’s thing, isn’t it? Well, whoever I owns it, I was featured on a tech news show called, um, Swipe. Yes, that’s the name of it. Here I am. I come in at the 3:10 mark. Right after the cranky man who bemoans the fact young people are writing poetry on digital […]
Here’s the Cover (March of the Novel, Part 3,000,001)
And then there was a cover. Here it is. The blurb will change. But otherwise, this is out. This week, some writers/reviewers started to receive ARCs (advanced reader copies) – perhaps one of them will say something nice and their blurb will replace the blurb currently on the cover. Also, I saw the catalog copy […]

The March of the Novel, part 3,000,000
So, we move forward. Waiting for the Man now has an ISBN and its own Goodreads page. I just finished my final readthrough after some last minute and astute edits and queries. And, frankly, I hope to never read this book again. Ever. Oh, I’ll read parts of it. I have to. But not the […]
Big in the OC
I’m some kind of funny. In the OC! (check page 152) At least, that’s what my friend Amy (from this design firm – yes, yes, identical twins, I know) thinks. What does she know? Does it matter? Look who else is on the list: @kellyoxford (who has a new book out and it’s getting raves), […]

New Short Story Published at Joyland
To celebrate the start of winter, or not – this is very subjective – I have a new story published by the great people at Joyland, called Cold. I’m lucky to live in a place that still has winter (I kind of like it) though it doesn’t have winter enough. We used to get a […]

For the Love of Paste
I made Paste’s best Twitter accounts list again. Second year in a row. This year, I hope I receive a t-shirt at least. Or a squeeze toy.
