(This is the post from Thursday night, but I just finally got Internet by going down to the lobby!) Here I am at Aeternitas! But I’ll probably be posting all this afterward, since the first thing I noticed upon checking into my room is that the WIFI doesn’t work. We’re at a lovely lakeside resort [...]

Aeternitas this weekend!
Getting psyched up for Aeternitas this weekend! (For those wondering what that is, it’s a Harry Potter fan gathering in New Hampshire.) Among the fun things, various people will be offering workshops as Hogwarts canon classes (I’m teaching one on Divination: using the Tarot as a storytelling tool for writers). How awesome is this? “Students” [...]
I booked my flight to England via Iceland!
OK, I did it. I booked my flights to and from Dia-Con Alley, in the UK, in July. I’ve been searching for the lowest fares possible for a couple of months and coming up with mostly $1100-$1200 from Boston to any UK airport. Even Farecast (now Bing Travel) which tracks fares is saying BUY NOW [...]
I’m organizing readings at Ascendio!
Just thought I’d share this news! So, I went to a party on Saturday night that happened to be populated by most of the board of directors of HPEF, the folks who have been bringing you fabulous Harry Potter conventions for many years now, a-a-a-a-a-a-nd.. I got roped into being in charge of organizing fanfic [...]
Frolicon Seeks Writers for Panels! Apr 22-24 in ATL
Are you a writer? Are you coming to Frolicon in Atlanta? Frolicon is an annual convention that mixes all the fun of a science fiction/fantasy convention with all the play and workshops of a BDSM convention. I’m the organizer of the Ink Track, which are the writers panels. If you’re in the Atlanta area or [...]
Back from Atlanta, soon to NYC, and more kitten news
The FFF Atlanta is over and it went really really well. Except for the bit where we lost $4K. Still, not bad for a first year, and I think we’ll make it back next year, then turn a real profit in 2013. So many great people came out to support the event, and I had [...]
Well, it’s official! I just received word I will be teaching a wizarding class at Aeternitas (the Harry Potter fan convention April 28-May 1 in Laconia, NH http://www.aeternitas2011.org/). I’ll be teaching a Divination class in basic Tarot, but simultaneously teaching a writers workshop in how to use the Tarot as a writing tool. Because it’s [...]
Winter blah, update
I’m still fighting with Seasonal Affective Disorder. It’s a pain to say the least. It’s hard to say where feeling crappy mentally leaves off and feeling crappy physically takes over. It’s like I’ve never gotten over the cold I got at the end of October. This week it’s a cough and congestion. Bleah. I’m off [...]
Arisia Guest Breakfast! (plus party, reading, etc)
I’ve been meaning to blog about this but I’ve been running around so much I didn’t have a chance until now! I’m going to be one of the special guests participating in a special Breakfast with the Guests event at the Arisia science fiction convention. The shin dig is Sunday morning of the con (Jan [...]
Blog “tour,” Lady Jane’s photos, et cetera
So I’m currently doing a series of guest blogs around the interwebs to promote the release of Magic U book 3 in ebook form, and the imminent arrival of book 1, The Siren and the Sword, in print form! I did one real life stop on the tour first, reading at Lady Jane’s Salon in [...]
