Writing: Moving Right Along

It’s been a slow summer for my writing, but there are a few odds and ends worth reporting.
First, for those of you not already aware, Brimstone Turnpike is finally available. For the first time, my name graces the front page of Cemetery Dance’s website. Bask in the glory while you can. If you’ve ordered from [...]

Wiz World’s Number One Question, Unanswered

As I wandered the con floor talking to people, by far the most often asked question was “What are you working on?” Looking back, I’m not sure I gave any of them the same answer.
Just how do I answer that when my productivity is in the shitter?
On the up side, the publisher meeting on Friday [...]

Productivity Update

I get asked once or twice a week how things are going with my writing, and given it’s been a while since I’ve talked about things here, I thought I’d save a few emails this week. These are the most active and/or most asked about projects.
POWERLESS
I’m proofreading the existing material, which is about eight chapters [...]

Setbacks

No, I haven’t forgotten about the Muy Mal relaunch. Have I neglected it? Hrm. Kind of hard to argue with that one.

The Bad Moon Bundle

Bad Moon Books is offering Restore from Backup in the Bad Moon Bundle, a collection of their first six publications being offered for $95.00.

New DVR Live At Last

I finally got around to posting the latest episode of Down Vendetta Road to Muy Mal from the road this morning. You can find episode 10, “Conversation Starter”, right here.
It’s a good thing my wife let me write in the car, or this might have been delayed until next week. I’m looking forward to things [...]

2008: The Year to Come

It’s been an interesting start to the year already, but there’s a lot on the horizon.
For starters, Muy Mal is officially back, complete with a rockin’ new look provided by Russ Dickerson. John and Weston have already posted their first contributions and mine won’t be far behind. I’ll be wrapping up Down Vendetta Road and [...]

2007: Year in Review

If someone were to ask me how this year went, my first reaction would be to call it a write-off. Then I got to thinking about it, and it actually hasn’t been so bad after all. Let’s look back, shall we?
I started the year by selling the German rights to Deadliest of the Species to [...]

Down Vendetta Road: The Story So Far

The Muy Mal relaunch is imminent! Because I’ve left Down Vendetta Road hanging for so long, I thought it might be a good idea to post a complete collection of the first nine episodes (thanks to Tod for the suggestion). If you’d like to read it, just follow this link:

Muy Mal to Return on January 1st for a Limited Engagement

Muy Mal, the place for free fiction about very bad things, will return January 1, 2008 for a limited engagement. Originally conceived by authors Weston Ochse, Mike Oliveri and John Urbancik as a shared-world, online fiction universe, Muy Mal exploded through RSS readers and podcast clients on January 1, 2005, providing fans with more [...]
