That Fountain/Wendig event
Which couldn’t have been a better time: powered by Crowdcast Or, for a pic of it, in case you’re unsure:
British Fantasy Award
Wow. Always heard of these—didn’t Gaiman’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream issue of Sandman win one?—but never imagined I’d be in the running for one. Honored:
Fangoria!
Could there by anything cooler than being in Fango again? Answer: yes. Being in the WEREWOLF issue of Fangoria! And getting to talk about slashers! Cool My Heart is a Chainsaw review in there, too!
Blurb land
I always make these posts (example: the last one) with the idea that I can just link people to them when a request comes in. But? So far, I’ve yet to do that even once, I think. I remember years back, I wrote someone for a blurb, and they sent me this response—not canned—detailing what-all
Stephen King interview/talk
My Washington Post review of Later is right up front in the intro, too. But, more important: very cool words from the Kingman, as ever:
Max Booth’s 100th Episode
In Friends terms, “The One Where He Dies.” I think I’m on at . . . 36 minutes, maybe? So many people just kill it, though — got some real skill at the mic:
Chainsaw & Amazon
Wow, hadn’t seen the cool spread Saga’s got rigged up for My Heart is a Chainsaw—and thanks to all these amazing writers, for the support. Had no idea:
Shirley Jackson finalist x 2!
Such an honor. So great to share a ballot with such good works, such great writers (and, couldn’t fit into this screengrab, but I’m also in Tiny Nightmares, which made the anthology ballot)
