Don't miss the announcement of JayCon X [ jlake.com | LiveJournal ] — My 10th annual 37th birthday party, plus my end-of-chemo celebration, next July.
Something weird this way comes — Rick Klaw with a piece on the New Weird, in which I am briefly mentioned.
A reader reacts to The New Weird — Including comments on my Dark Towns story, "The Lizard of Ooze."
The new issue of Locus has a very interesting and thoughtful Paul Witcover review of my recent novel, Madness of Flowers — Review isn't on the site, unfortunately. Must see the dead tree edition.
Interzone 226 is out, with my story "Human Error"
Beware of Science Fiction — Christian fundamentalist views of our field. My favorite: Heinlein was a nudist and practiced "polyandry." Um... (Via @pyr_books.)
A Bad Attitude — Cancer blogger Amy on the perils of positive thinking. And Freakonomics on the ROI of cancer spending. Now here's a touchy subject.
Jonah Goldberg reveals George Lucas is either prescient or has a time machine — Criticizing the political messaging of Avatar, the prominent conservative said, "There are dozens of movies that have taken shots at Bush, starting with 'Star Wars' movies." Star Wars: 1977. George W. Bush: 2001. Ahem. (Note:
ericjamesstone objected seriously to my characterization of this on Twitter yesterday, when I edited the Goldberg quote for length.)
?otD: Why me? There must be a thousand other guys.
