    Bombs, Tumblr and News

    Bombs On Thursday there was a bomb threat at Kid 2′s school. It was a fake threat. Without going into too much detail, it went very badly.  Kids had ran out of the classrooms screaming, teachers were screaming, kids sat in a field in the rain for hours…  Seriously , it was awful.  I am…

    Katherine emailed with a link to this article: Amazon Signs Up Authors, Writing Publishers Out of Deal and asked if wouldn’t be easier and less stressful to go this route.  It is an interesting article and a good question.  While I understand that for some writers there is certain allure to it, especially if your…

    So Nancy, our long-suffering agent, looked at the cover and said no.  It was too crisp, the font was too hard-SF, the name did not stand out enough, and it in general did not look “blended” enough. (Translation:  I know you can do better. Make it pretty.) Yeah, that shortcut with the space where I…
