I hate these bio things. Self-promote but be humble, humorous, human and avoid alliteration. How can you avoid alliteration in a bio?

Welcome to Starfleet Academy 90210.
Begging for them to make Star Trek for sci-fi fans and to stop trying to average everything out in order to court audiences who would never try a Trek BECAUSE it’s a Trek.
All the post-production hyperpolishing is awful. It’s awful.

#can-con folks! I asked the hotel front desk to call me a taxi and they said it can take 30-40 min to get there. Give yourself lots of time, or book online beforehand.

I'm going to be a vendor this year. The vendor room is open to the public. If you're in the Ottawa area this weekend (and why wouldn't you be?) drop by an buy some books before this greedy bunch gets them all.

I’m going to CAN*CON in Ottawa this year as a vendor. Decided it might be a good idea if I had books to sell and I thought, “Hey, I got a bunch of previously published short stories. Why not put a book together? And so I did.

Sad news. @On Spec Magazine is shutting down. I've always felt that to be a true Canadian author you needed to be published in a Tesseracts anthology and On Spec. I've been very fortunate to have done both multiple times.

End of the day at work and I'm handing in my paperwork. The dispatcher is the fill-in guy because the regular guy is off. Without warning he says, "Hey, is it true you're an author."
Usually at this point my eyes narrow with suspicion. Truckers are a wary bunch.
