Aug 31, 2015 16:46

I'm back home from Bubonicon, our venerable local con, and the last one on my schedule for this year. No more cons on my schedule until the end of February, when I'll be headed to Virginia ( Read more... )

gah, when you mention Wild Cards I always think of Zelazny and have to go read your eulogy and be sad for a while. any chance more of those will hit Audible? I would've thought the GoT TV show's success would have audiobookers scrabbling for you and yours.

Yes, more Wild Cards audiobooks are on the way.

yesss! I'm sure I won't get the news and will only discover them five years after they're released, but I'll try and focus now and look em up. really loved the first two.

Welcome home!
I know you are an avid NFL fan and normally only dabble in college football, but are you thinking about following it more closely as there is now the 4-team playoff?
Go Bucks! (I guess Northwestern's okay too)

Ah yes... Football! harryberger89 August 31 2015, 23:13:23 UTC
The end of August and early September are this Eagles fan favorite time of year. When dreams of winning the superbowl are not yet crushed when reality sets in.

Would you like the Jets to take a shot at RG3? Today I'm a heartbroken Skins fan but I'd love to see him catch on somewhere else.

No, I'll pass on RG3, thanks.

He was a great talent, but his style of play was too dangerous. I don't think he has ever recovered from those injuries. As a pocket passer, he's below average.

Have you ever thought of doing a nfl column or being a guest on a sports show? Now that bill simmons is with hbp and is a fan of AGOT I think you guys would be great together. Or espn mike n mike since both you and greeny are jets, j-e-t-s fans

Happy for you cdubayoo August 31 2015, 23:34:37 UTC
I am a freshman at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro and I've been following your blog for about a year or so. I have to say it's amazing to see that you have so much fun going to cons and meeting with fans and having fun in general. I've never been able to go to a con and I really hope to one day be able to meet you at a con. I also envy you for meeting such a unique person like Pope Francis. What was it like? I am currently reading the Dinosaur Lords, Chapter 12 right now, and even though I don't think of it as a cross between Jurassic Park and GoT, it is very interesting to read. I've been aspiring to be a great writer like you and have started my first FULL length novel. The longest work I wrote was 30,000 or so words. Unfortunately, I used a lot of people from my life, even myself, as characters so I'm unable to make money for it and I mostly use it as a gift to friends. It is fun to see them react to their book counterparts. I do have a hard time finding time to write which deeply saddens me. Anyways, I wish you good ( ... )
