Today on Ed’s Casual Friday over at Indies Unlimited, I try to bring some measure of peace to the Hatfields & McCoys. Nah, that would be too easy, let’s go with Writers & Reviewers.

Today, Tag Line Tuesday is pleased to welcome author and noted skull enthusiast G.R. Yeates from Across the Pond (and boy, are his arms tired…from the rowing. Rimshot!). With any luck, that will be the worst joke either of us makes during the course of the interview. Though I wouldn’t put money on it.
Ed: Welcome! As I am told writers are creative people, please answer each of the following standard biographic questions twice: Once with the truth and once with a lie.
Name?
GRY: G.R. Yeates, or Edward Elizabeth Hitler. Read the rest of this entry »

Since I’m actually getting asked (which is cool) about when the fourth book of the Norothian Cycle is going to be released with greater specificity than “Summer 2012,” I figured I should answer it here. Let’s call it LATE JUNE, that is, before the 27th. I will of course announce it here, post frequently, laugh myself silly, etc.
Book IV is titled DEVIL TOWN, and much like Book II (Death of a Kingdom) it will follow three plotlines, in three “Parts.”

Today on Ed’s Casual Friday over at Indies Unlimited, I discuss why nobody knows whether or not to capitalize the first word after a colon. Not you, not me, not the Chicago Manual of Style. Also, I used a different picture of a colon over there.

Thanks to G.R. Yeats for hosting an interview today, and allowing me to ramble on a bit about the Norothian Cycle, fear, Tilda Lanai, so forth and so on.

Today, Tag Line Tuesday is happy to welcome three people, or maybe it’s one person with three names. I better let her explain. Off we go:
Ed: Howdy! As I hear writers are creative people, please answer each of the following biographic questions twice, once with the truth and once with a lie.
Name?
SA: Emma Jameson and S.A. Reid. And…. Stephanie Abbott. But I’m far better known as those first two names. Read the rest of this entry »
