I thought you might be curious to know how it ended up… Neil says: The three covers in the poll were presented in chronological order and represent a sampling of our favorites. During the 24 hour period prior to the poll, there was a lot of discussion about color, framing, fonts, and such. I have […]
Realms cover – And here’s how it ended up… Read More »
I realized late last night that we moved a month ago. Rob is celebrating by being in Oregon at IPNC. I spent the day hanging out with Livia Llewellyn, who has got to be one of the coolest people I know. It was so nice to spend time with someone who totally gets the theater/writing
Friday, I made a wing mechanism for Irina Kruzhilina, the costume designer for Mabou Mines production of Song for New York. She needed it to extend upward and unfurl like a fan. Here’s a quick video showing what I was up to.
I’m doing the cover design for Realms, the anthology of Clarkesworld Magazine. There is a poll to see which of the three versions people respond to most. Please hop over to the Wyrm Publishing webpage and cast your vote. Which one do you most want to read? Cover 1 Cover 2 Cover 3

Frank Wu pointed out this webpage that will tell you what your real age is, as opposed to your biological age. Apparently, I’m only 16 and will live to 97. Gee! Does that mean I get to have a sweet sixteen party and get my driver’s license?
Today I made a wing, proofread, designed an anthology cover, wrote, edited and did laundry. Details on some of those activities when I am not aching with the need for sleep.

I picked up our set of bookshelves today. Compared to the kitchen cart, this was a piece of cake. It was only a three-story walkup and a eleven block stroll with the shelves on a hand truck. Every man I passed offered to help me. The shelves weren’t heavy, but they were very awkward. I
Last evening Jenny and her fiance, Chris, came for dinner. Well, really, they came to drop off Zoe, their cat, as a trial run for when we take her during their honeymoon. Dinner was just taking advantage of them being here. I was, to be honest, anticipating some fireworks. When I got Marlowe as a
Today is my parents’ anniversary. They are fine people with whom I think I would be friends, even if I wasn’t their progeny. They met in dancing school, and have continued to demonstrate what good partners a married couple should be. I hope today is wonderful.

Remember me showing you that article about my nephew’s friend? We just got word that he’s had a successful lung transplant. He’s still not out of the woods, but at least he’s got a path to get there now.
I had promised the folks who helped us move in that I would cook them dinner. Last night we had the first of our guests, Jodi and Sam. This is the first time I’ve entertained in the apartment so I wasn’t sure how it would go. I was also a little frazzled from the cart
Today I went to pick up a kitchen island we’d found on Craig’s List. The kitchen desperately needed a workstation next to the stove, and this was the perfect size. Since it was on wheels, I figured it’d be easy to get back to our place–even though I was picking it up at 71st and

This is the story that I was working on as we were driving across country. I just submitted it to the writer’s group I’m auditioning for and thought that you all might want to read it too. The password is the same as for Shades of Milk and Honey. If you don’t have that and
