Now, for your viewing confusion, I present a list of things overheard this past weekend while at Sci-Fi On The Rock. There are no points of reference, no clarification and no explanation for anything said. It can all be taken Out of CONtext.

To quote a friend of mine; “Names have been kept the same to reflect the strange…”

Post Sci-Fi On The Rock

Well here we are, one week removed from the biggest celebration of all things geeky and nerdy that St. John’s has ever seen. I’m talking of course about Sci-Fi On The Rock. Man what a time. It gets bigger and better every year and continuously blows my mind. I’m happy to be a cog in the wheel that makes this festival possible every year, and I’m grateful to the people I work with on the organizing committee for all the help we give each other in getting things done.

I write stuff

I ever mention I'm an author? I may have. Well, I have a new story out now in a new book of collected stories from Ink'd Well Comics called Fearsome Fables II. My story is A Midsummer's Nightmare. The entire book is awesome and so are the many artists and authors who contributed to the collection. You should check it out and maybe buy a physical or digital copy. All proceeds go to the Free The Children Charity.

So yeah, I've done a fair bit and I'm working on doing more. Currently I'm working on a book for NaNoWriMo and it's going pretty well. When I can get off my lazy ass and finish other things, I'm looking forward to getting my own stand alone book out for sale. Stay tuned!

- Later.

Shadows of the Full Moon

Well I finally finished another project. What I mean by that is I'm finally satisfied with something I finished writing a while ago but have been tweaking ever since. My third short story featuring Ryan and Frank, who I've mentioned before is done, dusted, closed out and sent to my publisher.

Weekend Geekery, Epilogue

Just got home from Atlanti-CON (http://atlanti-con.com/) and all I can say is "Wow! What a weekend!"

Seriously, I love being  a nerd. I love the people I've met when attending and working for the conventions here in Newfoundland. Nerds are the most awesome group of people to associate with, there's almost a telepathic bond when they congregate where they instantly understand each other and all the geeky/nerdy/obscure/pop-culture references they make. There's no other social group like it anywhere.

Weekend Geekery Part Deux

Well I'm still in the city of Corner Brook for Day 2 of Atlanti-CON. Yesterday was amazing, I already said how great it was to catch up with friends but I can't fully convey the epicness of it all. The organizers really outdid themselves with this and they should all be very proud of what they have accomplished.

A Novel idea

So I'm writing a book, well I've been writing it for the past two years. It started at a Sci-Fi convention. One of the authors, a friend of mine asked those of us on the committee if any of us would be interested in writing some short stories for a collection from the convention.  We said yes and Sci-Fi From The Rock got published.
