Just a reminder, I'll be at the World Fantasy Convention in Madison, WI, from November 3rd to the 6th, so smash open the 'Break in Case of Beer' piggy bank and slouch on down! I have to warn you, though, I'm in the process of finishing up Neuropath, which means that at some point, the conversation will take a decided turn to the depressing. I know that I'm on a couple of panels and have a reading, but not much more than that. view post
I'll certainly be there to harass you a bit. Worry not, however, my wife will be on hand to keep me under control. view post
While sadly I can't make it (school and lack of work, of course ), I'm curious - have you made a 'sell' yet for Neuropath? The more you say about it, depressing as it might be, the more curious I am about it.

Not yet, though I'm getting more questions like this from editors. My agent needs to read the thing, which means that I need to finish it! view post
Which means...you've been procrastinating again, haven't you?
Just teasing - I really am curious about the premise of the book. You've only been talking about it in passing for 16 months or so for me at least!

How many beers will it take to get an ARC of TTT off of you? no really, I'm serious. view post
At the moment, an infinite number. I still haven't received my box, and since negotiations are presently underway for AE, I don't feel comfortable calling up and griping. view post
You mean the [i:3lxwcn0d]corrected[/i:3lxwcn0d] edition is going to arrive soon, so others won't have to endure those damn annoying punctuation errors that plagued the ARC edition you sent me? Lucky them!
view post
Nope. There are no corrected ARCs. Only the one print run. That's why I was so keen to find out how much a problem the punctuation errors were. I was expecting about thirty, but I've only received three. view post
So I better treat my ARC with some TLC, huh, considering it might be worth hundreds and hundreds of dollars in the very near future? Sheesh - I didn't know you hadn't received your box yet! Thanks so much for the copy then, if I'm one of only three (counting you) to have the book at hand!

Had a wonderful time, Scott. It was great meeting you. Hope you got home from Detroit ok. (and maybe even got some sleep?) view post
I had about two or three hangovers to sleep off, but I'm feeling a bit more human today. I had a fantastic time. Apparently everyone is raving, saying it was the best WFC in ten years. It was great meeting you as well, William. I never had a chance to thank you for putting the screws to that dickweed on the philosophy panel. He was like a deer in the headlights. view post
