Quick update of sorts, since I’m absolutely slagged on time: The title above is actually a reference to a book I’m currently finishing co-writing with Fear the Boot‘s Chris Hussey (also a newbie BattleTech writer). It’s a book for Potomac Press that will see publication in November this year June/July of next year (in time …
The end of 2010 has been hectic (to say the least); fortunately, the tail of the holiday season left me and my beautiful wife on the cusp of attending the 2011 Winter Classic at Heinz Field in our previous hometown of Pittsburgh. And if you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m a diehard Penguins …
“Dude, it’s been four months since you last posted. What’s up with you?” Sorry about that. I’ve got some stuff slated to post over the next few weeks, but in general, I’ve been busy: Writing two book manuscripts, both due mid-Feb 2011; one book printing in July 2011, the other in November 2011 Been to …
As you may or may not be aware, GenCon 2010 was this past weekend. (No, I didn’t attend.) Normally I wouldn’t really talk about it here, since I didn’t go, there’s not really any news from me that didn’t get gleaned from the panels there, and I’m pretty sure no one cares from my end. …
Thanks. I hope you few in the minority are happy now that you’ve gotten your way. Enjoy the silence.
Red Tail Hawk in flight, taken during our recent trip to Tennessee/North Carolina. This shot was a total accident as I hadn’t changed my settings…but I like the end result, as it has the look of a painting. Just thought I’d share.
NOTE to all US Government cyberpolice – this is about a game, not current events. Thanks for playing! So anyway. Over the last 10 days I helped our intrepid BattleTech Line Developer crash-edit several of the chapters for the upcoming Jihad Hot Spots: Terra universe plot book. I did it partially because I outlined the …
No comment. Okay, well maybe a small one. (Don’t know what I’m talking about? Some background here – this is my primary freelance client, of which I am an assistant line developer for one of their game licenses.) Regarding the actual events, I won’t comment. The official press release from Randall pretty much says it …
Happy New Year! I resolve to write more in 2010 than last year – 2009’s total paid (and WLDC) word count, including blogs, articles, press releases, books and whatnot (not counting personal doodling and blogging here) exceeded 65,000 this year – and to make a dent somewhere. Now, understand, that doesn’t necessarily mean I’ll write …
I was invited last week to a special local blogger/photographer pre-public event at the National Geographic Society, celebrating the visit of the extremely rare-outside-China terra cotta warriors. DC was the last stop on a four-city tour; they had 15 of the figures on display along with roughly 100 total pieces. We only had an hour …
