Ready for readers: The Deacon of Dark River
I finished this story tonight. It’s 1800 words of Icelandic ghost story. It’s in a password protected post, but it’s the usual password. Don’t know what that is? Drop me a line and I’ll tell ya. And here’s the teaser. In the lee of the Bægisa farm house, Guðrun watched the wind blowing through the

Toast Cover
I just got the final art for Charles Stross’s book, Toast, coming out from Wyrm. I’d already done a preliminary layout using the rough draft of the art, so it was easy to drop the final art in place, make a few tweaks and send it over to Neil. The art is by the talented

When I do a bid on a puppet, mechanisms are the most expensive part. They are fiddly things and no matter how many times you’ve built something similar, each puppet is radically different.

Cover art for Apex
The cover art for Apex Digest’s Issue six has just been unveiled. This is the issue which I will be in. Neat. The artist who’s illustrating my story also sent me a rough draft because he thought I’d be interested. It turns out he’s a fan of the show. Small world or what?

Rob has just been hired as the Script Coordinator. Which means that he’ll be making sure that everyone has the latest draft and doing lots of color-coordinated photo-copying. It also means that we get to eat lunch together every day.
Day One of Summer Camp
I teach Stagecraft at this summer camp every year. This year will be challenging because our enrollment is way down. Instead of two classes with fifteen students. I have one class with seven students–no wait, that’s four students. No. Ten students. I don’t know how many I have because they keep pulling students out to
