Unleashed

Rent Unleashed if you haven’t seen it already! Jet Li, Bob Hoskins, and Morgan Freeman. I really enjoyed it. Of course, I have a weakness for stories about killers trying to do right….

Galvanics Rejected

Strange Horizons just turned down my story, “Galvanics”: “This is intelligently written and I like the shape of the story, but I’m afraid the unrelenting grimness flattened it somewhat for me.”

Personality

Since Jo posted the link to the personality test, I went ahead and took it and found that this time I scored as a “Mastermind Rational” INTJ personality. In the past I’ve scored as an “Inspector Guardian” ISTJ personality.
Either way, I get labeled as introverted, thinking (which means I’m more tough-minded/cold/reserved than friendly/warm/dramatic), and judging […]

Lewrie, Prodigal, Greywalker, Working for Devil, Cruel Wind,

Whew, spent a long day Harrowing (as opposed to a harrowingly long day) and now I need a change of pace. So, um, I’ll blog about … uh, fiction…. (and how is that a change of pace?).
I finally finished up the Alan Lewrie naval series; Lewrie isn’t the noble seaman that Horatio Hornblower was and […]

Pitch Black Folds
drupagliassotti @ February 11, 2007 # No Comment Yet
Publisher Pitch Black is folding, which is a double whammy, since it means my story “Night Shift,” which I’d submitted to them back in July 2006, is at liberty again, and their anthology Magic and Mechanica, for which and I have been cowriting a story, has collapsed. Oh, well; I’ll send “Night Shift” someplace […]

The Harrow Press

With the help of lawyer Kfir Luzzatto and his U.S. contact Kevin McCarthy of New York’s Roach Brown McCarthy & Gruber, The Harrow has now submitted the application to register The Harrow Press as a trademark, International Class 041.
This is very exciting to me because it’s part of our 2007 push to take The Harrow […]
