Star Wars / Marvel Writer Chuck Wendig Must Apologize for Bigoted Remarks To Hispanic Author
Is this what Disney as a company stands for? Privileged white authors saying these kinds of things about minority authors they don’t know? Do they support people who seek out rising star Hispanic authors, and call them horrific things on the internet? I don’t know Chuck, have never interacted with him save for asking to be […]
Sci-Fi Sexism By The Numbers: It’s A Mean Girls’ Club
On yesterday’s blog, I talked about my interaction with a professional paying science fiction publishing group who decided to berate me on Twitter for asking a simple question about anti-male discrimination in Science Fiction. It’s been obvious for a long time in publishing that men need not apply, you’re not welcome. But now in the […]
The Sci-Fi Publishing Elite’s Dirty Little Secret: Anti-Man Discrimination
This week saw me taking a lot of vitriolic hate again from several members of the in crowd in the science fiction publishing establishment. Here’s what happened. I noticed that a group that calls themselves the premier podcast in science fiction, a professional rate paying show called Escape Podcast, was running the fourth iteration of […]

Big Tech Bullies The Little Guy
Big Tech has been making more and more aggressive overtures over the last few weeks, silencing artists in an attempt to remove their platform. Most of these artists don’t say anything remotely offensive to the average person – but they do draw the ire of alt-left internet trolls who hit them with complaints. From Milo […]
Breaking News: New Peter Grant Fantasy Novel
Those who have been following for a bit may know that I’m quite the fan of Peter Grant. I discovered him last year with the audiobook version of his first western novel, Brings The Lightning, which I’ve stated is my favorite book of 2016 (including my own!), and have since gone on to read his […]
An Important Announcement From A Divine Goddess
Yes, you read that right. And there is of course only one person who could be worthy of such a title in this fallen world. She, of course, is Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift has announced her long-awaited follow-up to 1989, Reputation. The singer’s sixth album will be released on November 10th. Swift teased fans with […]
New Services Added!
In case you missed my posting about it last night and haven’t seen yet, I am now offering my services as an Insensitivity Reader, which is also up on the menu bar. This is to make sure you trigger as many snowflakes as possible in an attempt to generate maximum faux-outrage for your manuscript. Please look […]
Looks Like I’m Goin’ To Worldcon!
Got a nice email back from the Worldcon committee last night on setting up a table and getting some #PulpRev goodness going for WorldCon 2018. I doubt I or any of the other PulpRev folk will be invited to panels or anything like that — so the thought is, we’ll have our own and discuss […]
Observations in SF/F Authors – There’s No Debate
As much as people view me as some hyper-political figure, I rarely actually talk much about politics. I don’t spend my time talking issues or arguing about what this or that politician said on repeat on social media. Obviously in what’s gone on with my near-industry-wide blackballing at this point, I’ve had to state a couple […]
Uprising Review Interview
Uprising Review is a website dedicated to putting out short fiction, free speech (they actually take blind submissions for their fiction to make sure it’s all about the story and no risk of being blackballed as an author, which is nice) and now doing regular author interviews. I sat down to talk to them a […]
