Frontlines #4 (Chains of Command) will be out in April, and I am hard at work to see to it that Frontlines #5 (Fields of Fire) will be out in 2016 as well. HOWEVER….there are other things in the works that may be of interest to you, and I hear that I am now free…
gooder reads.
Hey, look at that! ANGLES OF ATTACK made the semifinals in the science fiction category of the Goodreads Choice Awards. Thanks to all of you who voted for Space Kablooie #3. And feel free to vote for it some more! I spent the weekend at World Fantasy Con in Saratoga Springs, NY. I didn’t bother…
signed books: an experiment.
I know that some people would like to have books signed, and I probably don’t go to nearly enough conventions and such just yet to sign in person for everyone who would like a signed and/or personalized copy. Soooooo–here’s the new experimental plan. I don’t think there are so many of you out there that…
the 2015 goodreads choice awards and you.
It appears to my untrained eye that ANGLES OF ATTACK, the third Frontlines novel, made it into the opening round of the Goodreads Choice Awards 2015, science fiction category. That means a whole lot of readers thought it didn’t suck, which is a cool and pleasing thing. In the wake of the ballot-related kerfuffle that…
it’s a tablet! it’s a laptop! it’s a dessert topping!
I have a severe case of technology ADD. When it comes to hardware, I sometimes impulse-buy shiny things just to try them out and see how they fit my workflow. Sometimes they look and work better on the store shelf or in the YouTube review than they do in actual real-world use, and sometimes they exceed…
brief nycc 2015 weekend recap.
I spent last weekend at NY Comic Con in the Big Apple. As usual, it was a ton of fun, although the teeming mass of humanity that is the Javits Center at Comic Con is something I have to take in limited doses. I did a signing at the 47North booth, a panel with other…
a first day of fall freebie: cake whores of mars.
Because today is the first day of fall, and fall is my favorite season, I’ll toss a little freebie your way. A few years ago, I sold a humorous little SF short story to an anthology called Unidentified Funny Objects. (The rights have long since reverted to me, but if you want to snag a…
con appearances for the rest of 2015.
I’ll be Author Guest at HonorCon in Raleigh, NC this year. HonorCon (one of two annual conventions around David Weber’s Honor Harrington series of military SF) is taking place from October 30-November 1 at the Hilton North Raleigh/Midtown. I’ll be doing a few panels and do some general milling around to meet people. ALSO: New York…
my sasquan weekend.
Sasquan was my first Worldcon, and it turned out to be quite the doozy for this first-timer. When we arrived on Thursday, the place wasn’t on fire, but smelled and looked like it. The nearby wildfires in central Washington were sending up smoke, and the wind conditions blew that smoke right across and into Spokane….
kitchen remodels are base and evil; also expensive.
I have a post about Sasquan and the events of last weekend in the works, and there’s a lot to tell. But it’s not quite done yet because I’ve recently discovered a new form of Introvert Hell: house renovations. Right now, we are having the kitchen remodeled completely. That includes gutting the old kitchen down…
