Virii and other disasters
Y'know, after the sixth machine I put my floppy into started screwing up, I might start to think maybe it was me. Or my (virusy) floppy. I'm just sayin'. No, I'm really not getting much writing done, so you get virii and the pain of utilities. Sucks to be you. The...
Change of address
I just changed my address for F&SF and Asimov's via their nifty forms. I feel like there's something I'm forgetting to do. I wish I knew what it was. In other exciting news, my Internet connection at home is the suck. Also, I am weary of cleaning spam off my...
Apparently, I don’t have to change my address for Austin…
I didn't make it into the second round of the screenwriting competition. Which dampens my faith in that script not even slightly. Dot Com rocks. It's the best movie script ever. It's young, it's hip, it's screamingly funny, and someone should buy it. I have spoken. In...
I bought a house!
Squee! I just bought the cutest house in the history of the known universe! In a Waffle House. (Atlanta, y'all.) I'm going to go hyperventilate now. Over a celebration dinner. Squee!

Happy birthday to me!
Between attempting to buy a house (OMG don't ask! so evil!) and wrestling with a software package of evil for work (I came, I saw, I kicked its ass!), I have been getting darned near no writing done. Shame on me! In fact, I'm so exhausted that I've been going to bed...
Immortal Gifts invites readers to re-evaluate the meanings of things such as life, death, freedom, hate and love from the first page. Katherine Villyard manages to capture some of the most poignant questions we ask ourselves as we go through our individual lives. Is it worth being able to live forever if, in the end, we’ll lose the ones we love to mortality? Is Death really the ultimate enemy to life, or is death just life’s misunderstood old friend? To stop hate, do we need to restrict our freedoms? This book makes readers ask and answer tough questions not only about the characters and plotline, but about their own beliefs, understandings, and dreams.
