  • Wow

    Message from Scrybe today. Shara has been delivered there. My copies, plus the 50 hardcovers, will now be coming to me. You need to click this link. I’ll tell you why later.

  • Sheep, & two reviews

    I think I took a little piece of a young woman’s innocense today. One of our interns is helping me with a PowerPoint presentation in which I have to “make fun” of all the states for the NTPAW convention ODOT is hosting this year. Well, I asked her to look up some trivia for me at www.dumb.com/laws…

  • Toosday ramblings

    Interesting day. The inevitable happened late yesterday and I was finally moved out of the private office I’ve had since going to work at ODOT and am now in “the pit” area with another PIO and an intern. In other words, no office door to close for privacy during lunch. It’s no big deal. I…

  • Site update

    I did a little updating on my main Web site today, putting the cover and some purchase links to Shara on the front page and touching up the front-page info on Darkscapes. Keep in mind that Shara is not yet available at Amazon.com and copies of Darkscapes have not yet arrived at Shocklines’ warehouse. Both…

  • Shara. Shocklines. Pre-order!

    Yes, Shocklines now has Shara available for pre-order. Not just the trade paperback. Matt also has the hardcover available. You can see both by clicking right here. The TPB is going for $14.95 and the hardcover, limited to just 50 signed copies, is priced at $30. Not sure you want to put out the money?…

  • I think it might be real this time

    Kayleighbug Books, the parent company of Scrybe Press, has a page up for pre-ordering Shara. He’s got the trade paperback listed at just $12, almost four bucks cheaper than the cover price. Check it out! (And go ahead and order!) Don’t know if you want it? You can still read an excerpt and deleted scenes…

  • New word on SHARA

    Here’s most of a message I found in my e-mail this morning. It comes from Nathan Barker, the owner of Scrybe Press. Shara (trade paperback) should be in-hand within the next 7-9 days.  I’ll have pre-order pages up at kayleighbug, Scrybe, and Shocklines within the week. How do you feel about the simultaneous release of a…

  • Tristan + Isolde

    We watched Tristan + Isolde last night. Despite Kim alternating between complaining about how slow it was and bawling, I liked it quite a bit. I thought they did a nice job of blending the action and romance without overdoing either. I need to look up the legend of Tristan and Isolde. All I really…

  • On this date …

    It was one year ago today that a spineless turd named Art Cotton fired me from my job as public relations director at that university. He told me it was the decision of Vicki Patterson to let me go; she’s the friend of our spineless turd hero who got the job I should have had after my…

  • Vacation

    We just returned from a Memorial Day weekend getaway. We rented a beautiful cabin in the Arbuckle Mountains (mountainous only by Oklahoma standards) and stayed there for three nights. I had absolutely no idea the area was such a tourist magnet. Lots of Texans came up to God’s side of the Red River to enjoy…
