I’ve got a few minutes, so here’s some random rundowns: 1.) Still jobless. It’s been a hard three months, with over 150 resumes and covers gone out and nary a word in return. I have had a couple of interviews, but nothing panned out so far. The biggest encouragement I suppose is that I’m only …
‘On The Ice’ courtesy of ‘brookeBAMF’ I really, really wanted to do up a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals between the sixth seed Carolina Hurricanes and those pesky upstart fourth-seeded Penguins. Especially since Game 1 opens tonight at the Igloo. Alas, I don’t have the time. I realize many people don’t know the extent …
My freelance boss for CGL is Herb Beas. He’s the Line Developer for the BattleTech license and a great guy. Overworked like no-one else I know, yet he handles it with…well, sarcasm and a wit sharp enough to not just kill sacred cows, but spit them over a raging fire until they’re juicy and medium …
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT! (Ok, TOTALLY NOT REAL!) I’m so giddy, I can’t contain myself. The official press release goes out tomorrow, but I’ve got permission to post the news here a little early… I’ve inked my first novel deal with IMR. It’s set in the BattleTech: Dark Age era, slated for Summer 2010 release. Working title? …
In case you didn’t know or hadn’t heard, I was downsized on March 4. Yep, no full-time job at the moment. But that’s okay. (Your sentiment is still appreciated, however.) The last two weeks have been quite the flurry of activity. Basically, hit up all my contacts – and surprisingly to me, I have a …
For those not interested in my gaming news, I’ve got you covered… Lately at WeLoveDC, I’ve been doing some excellent interviews with some pretty cool people. First up was Carrie Milbank from the Hockey Show on NHL.com. She’s pretty awesome, though I had to keep the questions related to the Caps. That was hard to …
I was blessed to have the opportunity to interview Carrie Milbank for our WLDC site. She’s pretty awesome, even if she’s a secret Caps fan. (I kid – she’s like me in the sense that she likes any good hockey game, regardless of who’s playing. Except when it’s the Rangers – I draw the line …
Post something regarding BattleTech, see site hits blow through the roof. Post on something OTHER than that universe? Tank city, baby. It’s okay, it only confirms what I’ve known since birth: the goings-on in my life are pretty unimportant to everyone else. The internet LIES! It said if we blogged about all our inanity, we’d …
Vote! VOTE! And make sure you put in Boston’s Tim Thomas as a write-in for Eastern Conference Goalie. We cannot let Carey Price win, even if it is the Canadiens’ 100th birthday…
Transparency, originally uploaded by Ghost_Bear. My photo, taken this past Monday on my way back from a blogger’s meeting at the Science Club in Dupont Circle, was selected as DCist’s “Photo of the Day.” Needless to say, I’m pretty pumped for the accolade. I’ve been quite swamped with three concurrent projects, plus a fourth sitting …
