I made the mistake of IMing my buddy Squid, and…err…apparently I’m going to be on the Squid’s Redoubt talkcast Sunday night. (The man is persuasive. I grant you, it consisted of “Hey, you wanna be on the show Sunday night?” but since I have the spine of a jellyfish and no plans Sunday night, it […]

In other news–is anybody going to ConXtreme this weekend in San Jose, and would like to entertain a Carlota-person? Drop me an e-mail if so, I’ll pass along contact info…
*headdesk* You know that blog post I made awhile ago about identification with one’s characters and whatnot? Well, t’other day, a Digger went up where the local healer asks her weight, and she replies “Two-twenty.” I figured that was a pretty good weight for an anthropomorphic wombat–her height looks to be somewhere around four-to-four-and-a-half feet […]
Today is an excellent day! Today, I paid off the last of my student loans. Hooyah! Mind you, that chunk of monthly cash will probably now go over to paying my own health insurance, but still, it’s nice to get that particular weight off my chest. Back! Back, damn’d loans! With whip and chair and […]
While I did not make it out to Comicon this year–I was hoping, but the cards did not fall into place–Digger volume 3 is there without me! Sofawolf Press will be at table G-10 in the Exhibitor area, and you can pick up a copy there, and say hi to two of the nice people […]

The conversation for me always seems to start at “So, you just really like birds?” “Err…” I always say. “Not exactly…” This is […]
Yay! LJ’s back! I have no idea where this quick little…err…thingy…came from, but I needed a break from my other painting anyway… Puffer Migration
It’s a gorgeous day. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, the ambient temperature is exactly 70 and not quite as revoltingly humid as it’ll get later on, I have a painting to work on that is going just wrong enough to be interesting and just right enough to stay interested, and all is […]
Okay. I offer this link with trepidation, because it is cruel and vicious and snarky and bitter and much like a cold, cold MST3K take on the last book, and those who get upset about mockery will not find it amusing and will probably think that I am a bad person. Still. I laughed until […]
Alas, poor Snape, we hardly knew ye! I am gratified that my belief that Snape was obviously acting on Dumbledore’s orders were confirmed, but I do wish he’d had more screen time. (Page time? Whatever.) I did howl like a wolf over the “Do you want me to do it now, or would you like […]
