We’re about 15 days out of The Stars Entwined‘s release, and I want to shift gears to talk about space opera. 1999 saw the end of an era on TV with both Babylon 5 and Deep Space 9 going off the air. Those shows really were the blueprint for great space opera on TV, with […]
We Will Win Culture Because We Have Substance
There are some days when the vile dehumanzing thrown from those controlling culture even is a bit much for me, numbed as I am after the overwhelming hate I’ve received since Worldcon decided to unprecedentedly discriminate against me. But it’s important to keep spirits up and keep going. Every success worthwhile is worth enduring hardship […]
Emerald City Comic Con To White Males: You’re Not Welcome Here
The last several months have seen a flurry of discrimination by conventions. Worldcon shamefully and unprecedentedly banned me over my being a political figure, Readercon removed guests over their age, and now ECCC is giving preferential treatment to people based on sexuality, gender and race. Their programming says it all: You’ll immediately note what’s missing […]
Book Blast: Levon’s War by Chuck Dixon
Anyone who follows me knows that Chuck Dixon is one of my favorite comic writers. If comics had a Grand Master status, he would definitely have earned it. In fact, I’ll confer him the title Grand Master of Comics right now. But I discovered he also wrote prose fiction early last year, when I saw […]
Quick Shot Comic Reviews: March 1 Edition
My pull list was fairly small this week, so I only have 3 books to review: Ninja-K vs. The Valiant Universe #2 This is an underrated little title. I’m not sure it takes place within the general Valiant continuity, as I believe this was originally meant for a tie in for a live action web […]
For Steam And Country Now Available On Audio
Happy to have out my first audiobook, read by the wonderful narrator, Katie Wright. She did a great job and now you can listen to For Steam And Country on audio! Book 2 is with editorial and I’ve just started writing book 3. Hopefully I’ll have book 2 to you around summertime, and depending on […]
ReaderCon’s Age and Race Discrimination
I was shocked to learn that the convention Readercon was removing people as what appears due to “age” to try to bring in a hipper, younger demographic for both panelists and audience. Pro-tip #1 to conventions: if you want a younger demographic, you’re going to have to change the formatting and focus more on commerce […]
Book Blast: Assassin by Kacey Ezell and Marissa Wolf
The last couple years has seen a resurgence in amazing Military Science Fiction series. Daniel Arenson, Richard Fox, Nick Cole and Jason Anspach, J.A. Sutherland, C.J. Carella among others have all come out with really awesome series that have took off like wildfire in this market starved for fun action-adventure. Mark Wandrey & Chris Kennedy […]
First Major Goal Achieved In Getting Worldcon To Respect My Civil Rights
https://www.gofundme.com/make-worldcon-great-again I first announced my GoFundMe publicly on Tuesday, only a few people knew about it prior to that. The day before, Monday it leaked to the hate-website File 770, where people I didn’t know mocked and derided me, treating me as if I weren’t even a human being. They’ve been doing this, encouraging science […]
The Pile On Begins
It’s been a couple of days since my GoFundMe for getting justice for the defamation and discrimination Worldcon enacted upon me was announced. We’ve raised nearly a thousand dollars now — which is enough for the initial filing fees so we can proceed. This is with no media help and is only due to friends […]
Worldcon Legal Demand Letter – Full Text
Below is the full text of the letter my attorney sent to Worldcon, which includes the legal statutes they appear to be violating in their discriminatory and defamatory treatment of me. This kind of behavior needs to stop so writers and artists in the science fiction industry can speak their beliefs without fear of prejudice […]
