Life, the Universe, and Everything 2019

Life, the Universe, and Everything was this past weekend. It’s a local Utah convention with an academic flair, which means there’s a little less cosplaying and a lot of interesting and informative presentations, in addition to all the great panels. There’s also a strong writing and publishing track, though in recent years they’ve expanded the… Continue reading Life, the Universe, and Everything 2019

Life, the Universe, and Everything is happening in Provo, Utah in just a few days, and I will be there! I plan to spend all day Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at the symposium, so if you want to catch up with me, just find me in the lobby or wandering around the dealer’s room.

Don’t worry, I’m still alive

Wow, has it been more than a week since my last post? I think this is the longest I’ve gone without updating this blog since coming back from Georgia. I wish I could say life has been busy, but it hasn’t really. Just another lazy summer in Utah. I did start dating someone recently, which… Continue reading Don’t worry, I’m still alive

LTUE 2013

Man, LTUE 2013 was this weekend, and it was AWESOME.  One of the best conventions I’ve ever attended.  I spoke on my first panel, attended my first book signing event as an author, and got to meet up with some old friends, as well as some amazing new people. Since I live tweeted most of… Continue reading LTUE 2013

New publication and first con panel!

Sorry, no Trope Tuesday this week.  This day ended up being a lot more packed than I thought it was going to be.  Not too productive from a writing point of view, but Stars of Blood and Glory is coming along and should be out on schedule. I do have a couple of quick announcements, though.… Continue reading New publication and first con panel!

Writer’s angst & post-convention ennui

In spite of the title of this post, I’ll try not to get too emo.  Not sure how well I’ll succeed, but at least I’ll try. Worldcon was great, but it put me into something of a writing slump and I’m not sure where to go next.  I was planning on writing the as-yet untitled… Continue reading Writer’s angst & post-convention ennui

Worldcon 2011: Saturday

Alright, I should just write this up and finish my convention report before life sweeps me away completely. Saturday was the main day of the con.  To be honest, I forgot all the panels I went to, except this really awesome one by a guy at NASA on near Earth objects (NEOs).  Holyfreakingcow there are… Continue reading Worldcon 2011: Saturday

Worldcon 2011: Thursday

Wow, the last couple days have been packed with awesome con-stuff, but I’ve got a short break so I thought I’d blog about it. Thursday was great, attended a few panels but mostly just wandered around meeting people.  I’m a little surprised with how many people read this blog.  Got Brandon to sign my Kindle,… Continue reading Worldcon 2011: Thursday
