Two Minutes of Me Blabbering
I occasionally drop a video into my illustrious YouTube channel. That’s a line I don’t think I’d have ever thought I’d be writing back in the day, but welcome to the world, right? I am thinking about it that way because today I decided that I’d go ahead and let you all see the little […]
Read More ...WIBBOW? Sometimes the Answer Is No
I’ve been spending a lot of time getting my Kickstarter project for my collection of Analog stories together. 1100 Digital Stories in an Analog World, is a title that makes me happy on so many levels. This morning I put the finishing touches on the Audio version of “Unfolding the Multi-cloud,” one of its short […]
Read More ...On Using Kickstarter
It is a fun new age, right? I mean, sure, Kickstarter (and crowd funding) has been around for a minute now—so long that sometimes it’s hard to remember exactly how interesting, unique, and exciting these things are. I love Kickstarted specifically because it’s made such inroads that it’s now NORMAL for readers to connect directly […]
Read More ...Wu-Tang Clan, Copyright, and the Business of Creativity
It’s strange how things go in cycles and have a synchronicity to them, isn’t it? In this case it’s Wu-Tang Clan, which—not surprisingly—I’ve been very much aware of, but hadn’t come up in my sphere for a little bit. All of a sudden, though, Wu-Tang Clan found their way into being referenced in my world […]
Read More ...They Came Back … Comes Back!
Well, it’s about time, I say! This book—They Came Back, Stories from the Radius—is one of my favorites of all time. It’s a book that captures four of my first works (one of them still original, though!), and then brings that one forward to a new version. All thanks to a long-ago high school teacher. […]

After what has been a bit of a rocky summer here at the Collins Condo, I’m starting to get my feet back under myself, something I can tell is true because I’m starting to get projects rolling again. That’s really the only problem I have with the world of indie publishing. When the wheels come […]
Read More ...Never Read Your Reviews – And If you Do, Here’s How to Do It.
My lovely wife sent me this link in email earlier today. It’s a bit from the Mammoth Cave National Park’s Facebook page, made after receiving a less-than-glowing review at some point. Go read it. It’s brilliant. Follow the comments, of course. Now, I suppose you have to understand that I say this as someone who […]
Read More ...The Big Time Bundle!
Yep. I got sidetracked for about a month and a little. I’m sure I’ll blog about it sometime here soon, but right now suffice to say that time moves forward … well … except maybe in this very cool new Story Bundle that you can find “The Magical Mystery Cruise!,” another collaboration with Jeff, my […]
Read More ...The Three Laws of Editing and the Coming of the AI Horde
All right. Sorry for the delay. I’ve had a bit of a life roll recently, so this one took longer to get through than the others. In addition, the topic is tougher, so I wanted to focus better. So I took a little more time. JUMPING IN You might ask what the Three Laws of […]
