Travel day! So it’s time to play #marygoround again. I’m heading to Seattle to have a writing date with @cmpriest via train. Yes, the yeti is with me, @howardtayler. I learned my lesson last time.

The yeti is not a joke. No, really. I travel with one.
It occurs to me that, this being April Fool’s day, when I talk about taking a yeti on my trip, people will think that I’m making a joke. And I am, but not the kind you think. As you know, I have sort of astonishingly weird travel karma. At one point, after a flight was

This is why she is so sleepy all of the time, because she has to concentrate so hard to control the world.

BSC is having their annual book tournament and Shades of Milk and Honey is in Round 1. My novel is up against Dog Blood by David Moody. I’m sure he’s a perfectly nice fellow, but which would you rather have Dog Blood or Milk and Honey? Milk and honey is tastier, can be used on

Catching up, Chapter 16, and who is that man?
You might have noticed that I’ve been posting less the past week. My reasons are twofold. I had to rejigger the outline. I’ve been doing layout, which I enjoy but is dull to blog about. So, for those of you reading along, Chapter 16 is up. Here is the teaser: Cora sat curled up on the

The Antick Musings of G.B.H. Hornswoggler, Gent. reviews Shades of Milk and Honey
It is so very, very gratifying when someone gets what I was trying to do with the Austeninan aspect of Shades of Milk and Honey. Jane Austen famously described her novels — in a description subsequently often quoted to denigrate her work and that of other female writers, either overtly or through a backhanded head-pat —

Ah, theater, how your terms have changed + Chapter 15
I keep having to look words up and it’s turning out that theater is a giant blindspot for me in this novel because I think I know it. I mean, 20+ years working in the business ought to give me some insight. Sure, the technical side has changed but so much of the language was
