July 11-13 was the WriteHive annual online conference for this year, and as I have for the past couple of years, I attended and participated in a bunch of events! On Friday night, I was the interviewer for an interactive fiction Q&A with Livia J. Elliot. This was a fantastic Q&A, with Livia providing a […]

Reading: Books for reviews, at the moment. I’ve got a few other things I’d like to crack open, but I’m sort of barely keeping up with other reading right now. Watching: Our latest “must watch” is Murderbot, of course, which we’re really loving! It’s a bit different from the books (I’ve only heard the first book, […]

Reading: Still working through Wonderbook and still reading some fiction to review. Amusingly, I had time to kill at a K-pop concert I attended solo last week between the soundcheck and performance, so I found a seat and read a third of a novel. Antisocial, yes. But it was nice to have a little time to […]

Reading: Primarily books to review, along with the appendices in Wonderbook. I’ve also just gotten my copy of C. D. Covington‘s Filling Your Worlds with Words, about linguistic worldbuilding, which I’m looking forward to tackling! Watching: We watched Skeleton Crew somewhere along the line, and I forgot to mention it here. Definitely recommended if you love the […]

Reading: Wonderbook and books to review, along with assorted Wikipedia and other articles as I start preparing to write another historical superhero novella! Watching: It’s mostly been K-pop and other music-related content, but we did recently watch The Undertaker and Mick Foley’s Hell in a Cell Retrospective, which is their recap of one of the […]
