DOB – April 6th, 2006.
RIP – January 8th, 2007.
We called it The Bog. Any weblog you’ve seen since then that uses that term – ripped it off from us. I say “us” because, though it was my blog, it really only worked because of the interaction with my readers. An unread blog is like [...]

Damn, Why Didn’t I Write That?
By Mike MacLean
Bryon is off on his honeymoon in Orlando with his lovely new bride. There will be sun. There will be fun. There will be little fruity drinks with high alcohol contents and paper umbrellas.
Meanwhile…
I’m here, watching words tick into existence across a blank white screen [...]

Stuff not going right with the wedding.
I’m back at the hotel with some time on my hands because I was supposed to be setting up some table favors and testing my slide show as the banquet hall said we could be in at noon for setup. Well, we show up and they have [...]

I’m writing this from a Holiday Inn where I stayed last night with my parents after the rehearsal dinner. Today is my wedding day. Woo hoo. After that I’ll be gone for a week and in my place here will be the blogging styles of Mike Maclean and Paul Guyot. Enjoy.

I’m getting married this weekend and it looks like it’s supposed to snow. Who cares. The next day Becky and I will be leaving for Orlando for a week and a couple of days. We’re driving and it should be fun. I love road trips. The highway sites, the all-night diners, the truck stops, and [...]

First, the new issue of DEMOLITION is now live featuring stories from a bunch of cool folks including Keith Snyder, one of my favorite writers who I wish would return to novel form soon.
And when I sent out all the emails and such pimping the new issue Christin Kuretich, local blog marketing guru liked my [...]

I got a very cool email the other day from the guys at Pegasus Books. It was the galley proofs for A PRISONER OF MEMORY AND 24 OF THE YEARS FINEST CRIME AND MYSTERY STORIES. This is the first time I’ve ever received anything like that and it was pretty cool. I also noticed that [...]
