Blue Tardis Police Box with author, bursting out through the open doors, striking a pose.
October is my deadline month to finish writing WAYWARD GODS (book 5, Souls of the Road). I'm determined as the Doctor to get it out this year! #knockonwood #writing #goals #tardis #WorldconSeattle
Stream and Blood was a great panel on sex in horror and dark fantasy. Tomorrow I'll post some of the books the panelists recommended.

At #WorldConSeattle, and I am beat. I do not know how the various authors, dealers, and panelists do this without falling over by 2 PM every day. No rest for the wicked, I suspect!

For those at #WorldConSeattle, today you will find me entirely in the dealers room, except for when I am at the signing at 1:30, where I will scribble in all of the books that you bought at our booth (#704). Well, all of MY books. I’m not signing anyone else’s. Probably. Maybe
Last night I enjoyed the honor and privilege of presenting my poetry with poets Ennis Rook Bashe, Alicia Hilton and Juan M. Perez at WorldCon 2025.

Cover Art for Indies panel went well, with representation from writers and artists and designers. My final comment: covers are not art. Covers are marketing. Adjust your emotions accordingly. 😎

Endeavor Award panel done and dusted, off to hang at our table (704) in the dealers’ room for a while. Come by to say hey and buy some books!

Magic Card of the Day: World Breaker
Woof, day two of a con is always rough cause I tend to over extend day one!
This card allows you to overextend yourself and cast it over and over as long as you have lands to feed it! Break your opponents with it!

Alex, do all the things! If you embarrass yourself, that's OK, it will make a really great story! Also, if you do meet @marthawells.com & tell her "Lisa say's HI!" it's because her Murderbot books got me through a really tough time after my cancer diagnosis - laughter is healing. #WorldconSeattle
Dear out of town #WorldConSeattle attendees: yes, today’s weather is more the norm.

So I have an announcement. I have a table at this year's #worldconseattle it was supposed to be a joyous announcement, but given the current overzealousness of US border agents, I'm not sure I'll attend. Any other international vendors/authors having second thoughts?

Seattle Worldcon has created some retro fabric designs and now I kind of wish I knew how to sew. Maybe they should have come up with some yarn. Maybe I should suggest that.... Hmmm. #goodideas #wisheswerehorses #worldconSeattle
