To all those who think the future is self publishing

Read Cat Valente’s post. Or, if you are lazy, here’s the takeaway:
No one goes around suggesting that everyone should become their own autonomous cheesemakers and cheering the death of the cheese industry. Why? Because that would result in a lot of shitty cheese.
Exactly.

Hey, Henry Blodget, Blogger at Silicon Alley Insider, Screw You!

hey-henry-blodget-blogger-at-silicon-alley-insider-screw-you

I’m a little surprised that a respectable news outlet like Business Insider puts up with screeds the likes of which Henry Blodget spewed all over Silicon Alley the other day. It’s shocking to me that not only is the post chock full of whiny, entitled, angry foot stomping, but also wrong information. I know blog [...]

Addendum to eBook Post: Other eBook Stores

addendum-to-ebook-post-other-ebook-stores

John Sclazi has an excellent post about supporting the authors affected by this whole Macmillan/Amazon war by buying their books, then he goes on to list many fine places one can purchase said books both online and in real life.
I realized upon reading this that, in my last post, I hadn’t mentioned some good places [...]

eBooks, eReaders, and why you need to keep up with the tech

ebooks-ereaders-and-why-you-need-to-keep-up-with-the-tech

I would normally post something like this on my tech blog, but I feel like this is more of a writer issue than a tech issue, though tech is a big part of why I’m writing this post. I’ve been pondering this for a long time — and a few inklings have come out in [...]

More Proof That I Am Actually A White Person

more-proof-that-i-am-actually-a-white-person

That headline will be massively funny to those who were up ’til all hours Sunday night at World Fantasy. For the rest of you:
Have you seen the video where the store employees show that the Face Tracking software on HP’s computers don’t track black faces? If you haven’t, go look now, it is really funny. [...]

Write-a-thon Week 4: BLARG

write-a-thon-week-4-blarg

So, the Write-a-thon is chugging along and all and I completed my revision of What Fairy-Like Music Steals Over The Sea and will send it out to Weird Tales shortly. But MAN, this last week was hard!
I don’t remember if I blogged this (I know I Tweeted and FaceBooked it) but I got a call [...]

Yes, I Am Really On Twitter

yes-i-am-really-on-twitter

I created the account as an April Fools Gag and intended to delete it the next day. But then I found a post somewhere on these here interwebs about HootSuite, a service that has a bunch of functions for managing Twitter accounts. One of those services is RSS to Twitter. That made me go hmmm.

Messing With Linux

messing-with-linux

Have I mentioned lately how my job is so great?  It is so great.  Please don’t ever stop being awesome, job.  Same goes for the people I work with.
This week I’ve been trying out different flavors of Linux in order that I might write a review of them for a print issue.  At first I [...]

Vitae

You can call me Tempest.

I'm a writer, most often committing acts of Fantasy and Science Fiction, though I have been known to slip in and out of genres. I'm famous on the internet, an editor of some repute, and hopeless convention addict.
