novelist, failed writer, schmo
How is this for bad self promotion: I’m reading last night at Blackbird Wine Shop in Portland, OR.
On the other hand, you can check out the story that I read (“A Proper Love Story“) at intentionalducati.org. Thanks to Stevan Allred and Joanna Rose who put on this fabulous event.
Happy Whatever-It-Is-That-You-Do this month! As for me, we’re spinning dreidels and lighting Hanukkah candles right beside a Christmas tree… so you explain to me what the hell that is all about…
I got a lot of new subscribers after my last video about Obsession & Voice. Very cool. Welcome! But I want to make sure that everyone knows the lameness of my bloggability. Really it’s just that I don’t blog (much). But once a month, I try to release a new video about writing or creativity or inspiration or obsession or productivity or failure. I’ll release the video here on my website and at Writer Unboxed. I’ll also mention a bit here and there if I get interviewed or get published or something like that. As my novel gets closer to publication, I’ll mention news related to the book, though I’ll try to keep that safely in the realm of Not-Overdoing-It. Let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you for dropping by.
Merlin Mann at kungfugrippe and John Gruber at daringfireball both linked to my latest video from their blogs, which totally destroyed my whole “I only get 50 hits a day” statement in that video, at least for the day. This is what happens when my piddly blog gets linked to by them:
I’m totally honored that they liked it.
Thanks to Therese Walsh, I’m now a monthly contributer at Writer Unboxed. My first post is about rejection (of course!) and the way I’m attempting to balance the writing life and the marketing of the writing life. Check it out!
My post about downgrading my computer was published on practically efficient. It’s a really nice blog about “technology, workflows, and life.” Thanks, Eddie!
