You think I would have learned last summer how hard it is to write in the summer with the kids home and our routines ruined. But I didn’t because I planned to finish my first draft by August. I’m still working on it but I may not make that goal. I’ll have to put it down by then, where ever I’m at, and work on game writing ( Read more... )

I’m booking it on my novel with a plan to finish the first and second draft before my Colorado trip early August. I really want to make this goal and it has leveraged me past the procrastination demons. I’m very close to the mid-point of the first draft ( Read more... )

Wow. I really, really enjoyed the last episode of Dollhouse. Not only was the main story riveting, but they finally solved the “eww” factor that has been a major problem for me (non-consensual, non-aware, prostitution… too much like pedophilia for my taste). Apparently, the only people recruited into the Dollhouse (to become dolls) are people who ( Read more... )

I watched several seasons of Buffy and liked it. I occasionally watched Angel when channel flipping and liked it. There aren’t many shows I watch at regularly scheduled times. These days, I usually Netflix stuff I’d like to see. A friend of mine lent me Firefly, and I loved it. Now I own it. Same’s true for Dr. Horrible. I’ve watched it so much ( Read more... )

I’m recharging my camera batteries now, so soon I will be able to upload my random filming of silliness from ConDFW this last weekend. I have interesting bits from Michelle Muenzler, William Ledbetter, Gloria Oliver, Rosemary Clement-Moore, K. Hutson Price, Amy Sisson, and others unknown. Are you worried yet? Heh heh heh ( Read more... )

I really want to enter this Zombie Caption Contest at Tor.com, but I don't know what to say!!! I'll keep thinking about it.

On the Fantastical Creature Reality Show front, Paige the Zombie and Jewel the Cyclops are in danger of being voted off the island. I think there'll be enough votes tomorrow for one of them to go ( Read more... )

I’m loving the Fantastical Creature Reality Show at www.delilahrehm.com. The most votes on one poll was about 80 but I don’t think I have that many readers. I probably have 5 readers. :-/ I’m hoping this number will build before the end of the show. The whole point is marketing, but I’m not sure it’s going to be effective. I’m learning a lot in the ( Read more... )

Around 12 PM Central Time, I'm interviewing the werewolf who got voted off the island last week. Help me out and please send me some questions for him! :-)

Twitter is sucking me in!!! It's like quicksand to an explorer, honey to a bee, a rubixcube to a nerd, a shiny flashing picture-box to Mr. Burns.

Is there no hope in this world?
