Writer Tamago

This week's Blood is Thicker than Water, a little late because of Wiscon. *** And, a wee bit of a Wiscon debrief. Follow the link to Friday.

Information Point: There will be, I think, 3 posts about Wiscon in terms of specific topics, and some general anecdotal information. Point the Second: It is important to remember that Writer Tamago is a sort of baby album for this writer, so when I get excited about something that may be old hat for some [...]

Times, they are interesting at Writer Tamago right now. I can't tell you the most interesting thing yet. See? I can be just as cryptic as my writer friends who aren't allowed to disclose things too. I think I've joined a club. Um. I'm very tired, and very wound up, but it's been a fine [...]

This is the book review I just posted about Magic Strikes at Goodreads, and while I could have just cut and pasted, there is a piece of author commentary I want to make as well. Make no mistake--I am now enthusiastic. While I enjoyed the series before, for many of the reasons listed in the [...]

2009 and going to Wiscon. My two-year anniversary of getting myself out there. Let's celebrate by hanging out with many cool people. In order to facilitate my weekend, I spent these two hours waiting at Panera writing the Troll story. Looks like with my work from previous days, I have 249 words to come up [...]

Announcement the first: Don't forget, that I will be at Wiscon this weekend. I hope to see many of you. I wish I knew what more of you looked like. Anywhoo, I've told you about the panels. Look for me as a member of the chorus in the Broad Universe skit as well. Announcement the [...]

Catherine Cheek (aka Kater) is not only a topnotch writer, but is also an artist. Here is the flier she created for our Wiscon reading, using unconventional mediums. Also, here's the creation story!

It turns out that I am more gullible than you might suspect. If you've read The Princess Bride by William Golden, you will see that he tells you he adapted it from a book by S. Morgenstern, a Florinese author that his father shared with him during an illness. He also elaborates on a family [...]

Writing today is helping me develop Nick and really develop Quartz. Stan, mortal flunky and witchcraft practitioner, also got in some licks. And here is some prose to get this below my picture on live journal. And here... And here... And now... Stats! 44212 / 90000 words. 49% done! MayNo! 30751 / 50000 words. 62% [...]

I'm not sure where my day went today. I think that had something to do with three meetings. Anyway I'm glad to be going home finally. My friend Mark mentioned Good Reads last night. Tell me all about it. Should an avid reader/pimp to writer friends/author myself be on it? Why? Sure, it's a poser [...]
