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 […]

This Might Be My Favorite Tweet Mention Ever
Here’s a tip: If offered a chance to walk around in @arjunbasu‘s head, politely decline. It would be fascinating, but you WOULD NOT SURVIVE. — lisha cauthen (@lishacauthen) March 23, 2013
My Very First Stupid Insignificant Tweet
Twitter has been rolling out personal archives to all users and I recently received mine. This is my first tweet (and it’s not what I remember): And this is my first Twister (which I do remember): In the past, I’ve said that just a few days passed between my first tweet and my […]
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.
The Endless Road to Publishing
I’m pleased to announce that my novel, Waiting for the Man, will be published by ECW in spring 2014. How did we get here? Well. It’s quite possible that there are sentences in this novel that are older than my son. Very few of them but I wouldn’t doubt it. My son is 12 years […]
And Then It Gets Cold
The geese are flying south. Frost crunches underfoot. The trees glow red and orange. The stupid NHL is stupid. The old Expos make the playoffs and are eliminated in rather spectacular fashion (something I had asked for last week – because I am a small and petty man – and something I might have found […]

Explaining the Noodle
I changed my Twitter homepage set up. Because I could. I’m not crazy about the design, and frankly, I’m never on the Twitter website itself because YOU DON’T NEED TO BE but I changed the image because I wanted to express myself, I guess, without getting too Madonna about it. (Not that there’s anything wrong […]

The Week in Video
I did some video this week. The people at VYou asked me to respond to questions and I did. A lot of them. Perhaps 30. All of this on Monday night. After each video response was posted, I shot it to Twitter. That may have been a mistake. A few peeps wrote me to tell […]

Another Drunken Paper Puts Me on A List Made Up of People Who Tweet
Pity the Brits. Losing the Euro on penalty kicks (surely the most dastardly invention ever devised to solve a sporting event). Suffering through a summer of epic rain (no really, we all joke about the British weather but this year’s rain is breaking their records). Preparing for the Olympics with that English mixture of fatalism […]
