I've just sold "From the Spices of Sanandira" to Beneath Ceaseless Skies. I've been watching BCS for quite some time now — what they like to print is exactly what I like to write — and though I've been pretty busy with the novels lately, I was terribly excited when Scott Andrews asked if I'd [...]
While I was emailing a few people that have ties to the Writers of the Future writing workshop, I realized that it starts today. What a great time that I had when I was there. I can't believe it's been six years already–it's been over seven since I found out I'd placed in Quarter 1 [...]
Roughly 3,000 words the last two days on The Straits of Galahesh. That’s caught me up for missing last Friday. That’s pretty good for me. Steady Eddie. Straight’s the ship that stays the course. You know what would be really cool, though? If someone told me they’d written like 4,000 words today. Ever read Cherie [...]
I’ve come to a decision on the title for Book 2. It will be called The Straits of Galahesh, though I reserve the right to change it at any time. It’s important for me to have titles, though. For whatever reason, they help me shape the book. With The Winds of Khalakovo, it captured both [...]
My daughter, nearly three years old in this picture.
The Winds of Khalakovo is now listed on Night Shade’s site. I’m now an official member of the posse! Comment excitant! Coming April 2011 Among inhospitable and unforgiving seas stands Khalakovo, a mountainous archipelago of seven islands, its prominent eyrie stretching a thousand feet into the sky. Serviced by windships bearing goods and dignitaries, Khalakovo’s eyrie stands [...]
I just got word from my editor, Ross Lockhart over at Night Shade, that the artist that’s been assigned to work on the cover for Winds is Thomas Scholes. Not knowing terribly much about Mr. Scholes, I quickly googled him and came across his blog (love the name: Crayon Box of Doom) and his corner [...]
Well, all in all I would have to say I liked it and would generally recommend it to people. But was I crazy about it? No. I’d have to put it squarely in the B- category. ::spoiler alert:: ::spoiler alert:: The good? The special effects of course. Even though they were pretty spectacular, I often [...]
I'll be sitting on a number of panels, giving a reading, and signing books while at GenCon this weekend! Here's the lowdown: Thurs 9am – Plotting in Reverse - Craft the end at the beginning! Work your story backward! Simply decide how you want your tale to conclude, and we’ll help you figure out how to [...]
Out of necessity, I've been sitting on this news for a while, but now I can finally let the cat out of the bag. I've sold a book! Check that. I've sold three books. A trilogy, even… The Winds of Khalakovo, The Straits of Galahesh, and a third book yet to be titled (and written, for [...]
My friend, Mary Robinette Kowal, has a book, Shades of Milk and Honey, that released today. Mary is a wonderful writer, and I'm excited for this milestone in her growing and no-longer-so-budding writing career. We went to Orson Scott Card's Literary Bootcamp in 2005. She's come a long way since then, and it's been gratifying [...]
