The P-Con Finale This is Tod again (with major re-writes from Anna)! My lessons learned from P-Con are a little different and more is drawn a lot from my partial notes, so while I may often know the panel the thoughts are from, I rarely have the panelist. Sorry – next con I will take […]
Cowboy Publishing News We have two pieces of writing news this week, which means you will have to wait until next week for Part 3 of P-Con. First, we got listed on the cover for Space Cowboys 3, which came out on Friday from Raconteur Press! Our story in that anthology is “Space Dog and […]
Sunday Salutations Back Home and P-Con Part 2 So, my first con has come and gone. Our first post for P-Con was written basically as the lights of the con were still fading. We knew other writers and gamers were gathered in their rooms nearby to continue the party. Yet, as extreme introverts, Tod and […]
Sunday Salutations from the Post P-Con Hotel Room The first ever P-Con ( https://www.p-con.us/ ) has come and gone. This was Anna’s first sci-fi/fantasy convention, and she had a lot of fun. Hopefully, she will be adding more at the end. (Meep! I appear to have an assignment… ~Anna) This is a quick recap, as […]
Tod here – the husband half of A. Kristina Casasent. We’re getting ready for P-Con ( https://www.p-con.us/ ), the writers-oriented convention in Dallas, Texas. The con runs Friday, September 15 through Sunday, September 17, 2023. This will be Anna’s first science-fiction/fantasy convention. She’s been to lots of biomedical research conventions, but they aren’t quite the […]
More Nano-Sapiens Yay! Tod and I got into another anthology with Raconteur Press. We received the notice last week on Sunday, but it was after I had written and posted the Sunday Salutation. So, instead we get spread out the celebration! This story is another story in our Nano-Sapiens Universe (https://akristinacasasent.com/books/). The new story will […]
Being the Game Master! For all those RPG players out there in cyberworld, I have now officially joined the ranks for someone that has been a Game Master (GM) for at least one game. Our Traveller group has been running one-shots this month since at least one player each weekend was going to be traveling […]
We are in the middle editing our first novel tentatively titled Trials of Taste in our Chef world universe. The current pitch for it is Zelda meets kitchen stadium, where cooking for strangers is reserved for the select few, just as magic is also for the few. (Although it does feel like everyone has magic.) […]
Sunday Salutations from the Writer Cave Have you ever thought you knew what you were doing only to realize you completely missed the mark? Yep, that is where I am at on the writer skill chart. This week has been a strange mixture of writing success, changes, and rediscovery of items I thought I already […]
Squee! Tod surprised me yesterday and scored us both Liberty Con tickets, after telling me that he didn’t think we could go next year. He pulled a fast one on me and surprised me a lot! The sneak! I had figured we wouldn’t be able to make the Con because the sign up started during […]
