I try to take events and mentally catalog them for use in future books. That’s one of the reasons I like to sit and watch people. It helps me to make the interactions in my stories more realistic. In this episode, I will be talking about taking life and translating it into stories in the tips and typos section. I am also pleased to have my co-editor, Jeff Hite on the show. We talk about A Method to the Madness: A Guide to the Super Evil and some of the things we have been and will be doing to promote it. We also talk about some related, planned projects and how you can get involved. That’s today’s episode. I hope […]

Why am I dedicating an episode to Brand? I guess my best answer is “Why not?” He has a number of great things to say and talks at length […]

Happy May Day to those of you who celebrate it. We don’t observe May Day in Canada but I still love May 1st. It has always meant Spring to me and the beginning of great things to come. Maybe it’s because I can finally see the end of another long winter. This year it also helps highlight just how much I have going on. I guess I’d better get moving on all those projects. Since I wanted to mark the beginning of May in style, I am delighted to have both Jenny Hudock and CA Marshall on the show. Both are great ladies and people I highly recommend you get to know if you can. Jenny and I talk about […]
