So, the weather. What was the weather? Best I can recall, mostly sunny. Our high was a humid 78F.

I got work done. Not quite as much as I would have liked, but better thna nothing. Better than nothing is always, you know, better than nothing. I read everything written thus far on "A Nameless Person of Mysterious Origin," and I did about 500 more ( Read more... )

A day that began so cloudy and rainy I could no see the street from my window. But then there was sun ( Read more... )

A sunny day, but cold. Our high was a blisteringly hot 50F.

Lows in the 20sF tonight and tomorrow night.

I forsook various mosasaur-related things I needed to do today, including that trip to McWane I mentioned yesterday, to talk with Kathryn about The Night Watchers. Because the book comes first. Until it is written, the book comes first. Likely ( Read more... )

In the space of one email, a day can go to hell.

Our high today was 66˚F. It is currently 65˚F and sunny.

Most of this entry was written yesterday even, but those dread Technical Difficulties stopped me from posting it. So ( Read more... )

I just sorta needed a day without the blog, and I figured no one would much care. The weather today was sunny in the morning, but grew cloudy as the day went on. It is currently 77˚F, with a heat index of 78˚F. Our high was actually 91˚F, with a heat index at 96˚F. It didn't rain. I'm not sure what's up with the weather ( Read more... )

Lo, there will be typos ( Read more... )

Still rainy. Delta spinning down, and Alabama lost great numbers of pecan trees. Our high today was only (ugh) 74˚F.

It's Sunday, isn't it? I had to stop and figure that out.

Today, I signed the signature sheets for the limited edition of Steve Jones' The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror #30, which reprints my story, "Virginia Story ( Read more... )
