One Day Off

Whoops! I've told you before how I suck at linear time, right? Well here's a classic example. My interview with Whipped Cream went live today, 28 July, and I'm chatting tomorrow, 29 July. D'oh!

Whipped Cream Interview

Earlier this year, I was interviewed by the lovely folks at Whipped Cream. That interview will be going live this Wednesday, 29 July! I also expect to be chatting over on their yahoo group the following day. Come check it out!

Updates!

Samhain Publishing: Space Opera Anthology submission...uh...submitted. Keep your fingers crossed and good thoughts out there for False Dawn.

Torquere Press: Marketing materials for Client Privileges sent. The "author bonus" is super-tasty!

Torchwood: Children of Earth viewed. ... Duuuuude.

Friday Quizzage

Your result for The 3 Variable Funny Test...

the Wit

(62% dark, 38% spontaneous, 21% vulgar)

your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK



You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.

I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.

Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.



You probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm

How red is my face? I didn't realize until I went to post this year's Slash & Burn Round-Robin on my website that I never posted last year's round-robin. D'oh! Needless to say I have rectified this issue. Check out My Bookshelf for links to download these two ass-kicking round-robins.

Proofing Process and Friday Fun!

Hey there! Long time no blog, eh? Well, at last I have an update on my current manuscript, Client Privileges. Having completed round one of edits with my awesome editor, Kate, at Torquere Press (Not to be confused with my friend and critique partner, Kate Davies. :) ), the manuscript has gone through one round of proofreading and is soon to be headed into the second round of proofreading. That means everything is, I believe, on schedule for a September release. Woo-hoo!

Oh, and just because it's amusing, here's my robot name, decoded:
