I must confess that I don’t believe in the word “impossible”. It’s my Amway upbringing. I have a bad habit. Every time someone starts telling me what they dream about doing, I begin telling them how they can make it happen. I know it’s just a dream. Some people like separating dreams from reality. I’m […]

Political Cynicism
When it comes to politics, I’m a cynic. For the most part, I know who I want to vote for in the next election. What is disturbing to me is the lies the candidates are telling to sell their points. Recently, I started reading The 4-Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris. In it, Timothy tells […]
Be On Time
I was reading Seth Godin’s latest blog on Time, and how it is “the #1 most overlooked secret of marketing”. I’m not sure where my sense of timeliness came from. In the 10th grade, I won $100 because I was the only person with a perfect attendance. I never skipped on classes. Maybe it goes […]
Marc Weeklies: Everything’s Better with Pirates
My body is so out of whack. Acupuncture really is fascinating. I never thought much about the way things affect my body. I’m not even sure what is doing what to me, but I have felt physically off since DragonCon… not sick… just off. Fortunately, I am taking good care of myself with lots of […]
DragonCon 2008
This was, strangely enough, one of my most-fun years at DragonCon. I think it had a to do with the fact that Brobdingnagian Bards were such late additions. We were accepted only two weeks before the show opened. However, Andrew and I already decided we would attend the con nonetheless. We expected it to be […]
Ren Fest Awards Update
Yes. You WILL notice there are some missing categories this year in the Renaissance Festival Awards. I cut down some of them due to time constraints and redundancy. I could probably cut out a couple more, but should’ve spent more time thinking about what else to cut before starting voting. Oh well… In any case, […]

Marc Weeklies: DragonCon Ends, Recovery Begins
DragonCon is over. Wow, what a great weekend! This was probably the most-relaxed DragonCon I’ve done. We had some incredible shows, and I had more fun than ever. Now we’re taking our annual repose outside of Atlanta. I slept twelve hours last night. I’m feeling nicely recovered to catchup on work. I’ll post more DragonCon […]

Help an Indie Author Top the Amazon Charts!
Playing for Keeps began as a serialized podiobook by my friend, Mur Lafferty. Mur is an awesome storyteller. I loved the podiobook. It’s a superhero novel where there are different levels of superheroes. And those with less than “super” powers, get treated like crap by the arrogant “heroes”. The book is total fun and now […]
