Last night’s Pixel Project , recorded:
So cool to be there again. Last time I was there I wasn’t just signing a cart of Mongrels, I was wearing a Mongrels shirt: Looks like I also had more hair on the sides of my head then too. Okay, and darker hair. The last couple years, man, the aliens come every night while
Hangout session’s soon, here (http://bit.ly/SGJonesR4P2019), and there’s also Meet the Authors and the main page. And of course ye olde poster:
Over on YouTube: ( rest of the ReaderCon pics &etc over here )
I’ve been there before, some three or four times, and it’s always been nothing but a ball, but being a GoH (thanks, Rose Fox!), that was completely different. Not only was my schedule super-super packed: But I of course had a handler, a chaperone, Nightwing Whiteshade, who . . . rememberer years and years back,
Always great, being in Seattle, wearing a Batman shirt, being at the University Bookstore, having fun at the mic with seventy or eighty readers and writers. Thanks to all these cool folk for snapping pics, posting them up: pics by @AndreaLRogers, crowdsourced reading glasses, Neile Graham

FINALLY saw Breakfast Club on the big screen last night. Was a-a-a-amazing. Didn’t see Pretty in Pink—actually, I only saw that one last year, on DVD—am not catching Ferris Buehler (never really got into that one, except for the principle getting the Buford T. Justice treatment throughout), and, would have caught Weird Science, but I
Man, why do I ever miss one of these? They’re always the best time of the year. And, as usual, I’m no picture-snapper, have to rely on what others post. And, this time, instead of snabbing pics from around and then trying (and failing) to cite those who actually deserve picture-credit, I’ll just link what
Two words I don’t usually put together, true. More used to seeing my name plus “Come to the office” or “All you can eat” or, with impolitely unsubdued laughter, “Security deposit?” Nevertheless, this is a real live thing: Interview in there, updates, how-to, who-to, where-to, all kinds of stuff. Very cool. Who’d have ever thought,
Always cool being at Bookbar, always cool reading with Carrie Vaughn, and who doesn’t like to be on-camera then off, kind of voicing-over, right?
Or, close to home, anyway: Canyon, WTAMU, courtesy CSAW. And I was also lucky enough to get to scoot out to Hereford, talk to the high schoolers there. Was cool. Broke down once in Hereford for a couple days, had three dollars and a bag of Cheetos, so bought a loaf of bread, palmed some
Showing two of my favorite-favorite horror movies. No: two of my favorite of ALL movies ever: oh, wait, I never posted anything about this AFTER it happened. anyway, this is me in JULY, finally finding a couple of old snaps on my camera roll. and a movie of the cool Alamo Draft House carpet. But,
That “Letter to a Just Starting-Out Indian Writer” piece I read first at . . . NALS, I think? in 2015 or so? Anyway, read it again at IAIA a year or so later, they Vimeo’d it, but then, these past few months, it had gotten behind a password wall. No longer: it’s free and
Coming in 2020 (which, surely everyone will be writing as “20/20,” yes?).
Started the week out talking to Billy Stratton’s Native American Lit course (st DU) about Mongrels for . . . I guess it was nearly two hours. Two very cool hours, that I wish had been four: ( was possibly showing off the Turkish edition, yeah. both shots via Billy Stratton ) That class had
Hey, Tattered Cover (Colfax) has a green room now! So cool. Anyway, was a good time, answering questions about Mechanical Animals with Selena Chambers, Jason Heller (editors of this), Molly Tanzer, and Carrie Vaughn. Really, Molly and Carrie and me, we’re on stage so much together we’ve pretty much got a routine, by now. And
