It’s a new year and I’ve revised my project counters. I have ditched the counter for The Unicorns of Hunting Valley because it seems very unlikely I’ll be able to justify getting back to it any time in the near future. (As in, any time in 2008.) I’ve added a Read more…
Well it looks like I’m going to fall short of my self-imposed deadline for Prophets. I went and caught the flu. When I get to feeling this kind of blah, I find it hard to read, much less write. So down to around 500 words a day for the time Read more…
I didn’t write a chapter 12 for Prophets.No, I didn’t leave anything out, I just went straight from 11 to 13.No, I don’t know how it happened.Yes, this is a sort of pointless comment.

Well I’ve hit the first landmark in the Apotheosis Trilogy I’ve felt worth posting about. I have reached the quarter mark on the trilogy as a whole. Word-count subject to change, as I’ve assumed that book #1 is going to be a little longer than the next two. Speaking of Read more…
You may have heard of the non-profit initiative called “One Laptop Per Child.” It is essentially an attempt to bridge the technology divide between the technological west and the developing world. OLPC was founded by Nicholas Negroponte with the goal of producing a laptop as cheaply as possible and provide Read more…
At least that’s how it’s looking. With help from my kick-ass agent, Eleanor, I’ve sold Wolfbreed and a subsequent novel to Anne Groell at Bantam/Spectra for an advance a bit more than three times what DAW was giving me. Contracts are being written as we speak, and by this time Read more…
