  By Russ Linton on October 6, 2014 • ( 7 )

  

  Mumble-blather-mumble years ago, I was born on the 21st day of this month to two stunned, bewildered and freaked out parents. They had expected one giant baby. Instead, they got two medium babies. This was not a particularly high point… Read More ›

  Over the weekend I attended #Fencon as a fan, maybe for the last time. Not that I won’t go back – it was great fun and I got to catch up with old friends and make new ones – but next… Read More ›

  Several weeks ago, I backed a Kickstarter for Kill the Freshman, an awesome looking graphic novel written and headed up by my friend, Alex Langley. (You may know him from his successful and ultra geeky, Geek Handbook or the follow-up… Read More ›

• A Review of Lev Grossman’s The Magician’s Land

  Me! Yep. I totally won with the Goodreads Giveaway. 885 people entered to win, which means 885 people were interested in getting their hands on Crimson Son. If the purpose was to blow my mind: Mission Accomplished. Another tremendous “thank… Read More ›

• This Is Not the Book You’re Looking For

  I recently started experimenting with Wattpad – mainly just posting my Free Fiction Friday there cuz, well, why not? It’s FREE! It’s been a fun experience and I’ve been able to chat a bit with readers and writers and have… Read More ›

• BEHOLD! Michael Bay schooled by a 14 year old…

  This summer I asked my son to make a book trailer for me. He’s always been into creating slideshows and short videos. He’s edited a zombie movie his scout troop filmed, a few photo collages and several gaming related shorts…. Read More ›

• Labor Week
