Harlan Ellison’s Epic Takedown Of SFWA
Back in the 90s, the problems with the club were starting to show, with it being less about promoting science fiction work as it was due — in the context of lifetime achievement awards here — and more about amateur arguing and popularity contests within its member base. Note how even then he mentions flippantly […]

Combating Online Bullying
Over the weekend I’ve been raising awareness about online bullying, after an incident within the writing community where an artist attempted suicide over the immense pressure and bullying brought on over a writing group. I’ve faced a tremendous amount of online bullying, from big name authors to the anonymous cowards following them who decided to […]

I’ll be chatting books and space force…. and maybe space force books. You won’t want to miss.
Jon Del Arroz’s Epic Military Science Fiction Extravaganza

White Male Author Banned From Convention For…
…well, we’re not sure exactly what he’s banned for. But it must be really, really bad if an esteemed convention would proclaim a banning, right? The chorus of the angry hate mob is already trying to justify yet another banning, which is tied into everything else because it always comes from the same people. Long […]

China Mike Glyer Is Fake News – and SLOW.
It took more than two full days for China Mike Glyer to put up my report on FOGCon’s excellent work as a convention on his hate speech website — and of course, he attempted to turn what was a positive event for everyone in the community, into a call for science fiction authors to attack […]
Book Review: Dream Of The Iron Dragon by Robert Kroese
I’ve been a fan of Robert Kroese for a couple of years. I discovered him with The Big Sheep, which is an excellent novel, and went into his Rex Nihilo adventures, which are a star wars-ish parody that really is a love letter to sci-fi. What they have in common is a lot of comedy, […]
Writing To Your Audience
DC posted a strange tweet today regarding one of their comics, seeming to double down on the “we’re going to make comics without action that is just signaling identity politics” that’s spreading through the comic industry like cancer. It made me think about writing to your audience, and the trouble the comic industry is having […]
