A commenter question made me take a few minutes this morning to post instead of grabbing an old one, because I felt it was a great question and worthy of more than just an answer hidden away in the comments. (and I had a really great writing morning -- 2600 words -- so I can take the time) Rebecca said... I have a question for you and your other blog readers... I've never written a novel, but I'm inspired...

The Apex Book of World SF interviews over at SF Signal is still moving along. Last Friday's was with the awesome Kaaron Warren . On non-personal plugs, everyone should read this nonfiction piece by writer/rockstar Lourd de Veyra about the experience of losing books to the recent typhoons. After the long, grueling days of cleaning up after September 26, I came up with my own: Books That Are Too Important...

Grand dame author Chelsea Quinn Yarbro hit the nail on the head when she said: There are two hooks that need to be felt for the reader to really buy into the story. The intellectual hook, and the emotional hook. She went on to explain (I'm paraphrasing here because my notes aren't this detailed) that the intellectual hook is the plot stuff. The things we want to know because an interesting question...

I feel this tweet sums me up as a person. Quote of the day goes to Narrelle, also from Twitter: "Chelsea Quinn Yarbro told a story at the weekend. 20 years ago a publisher told her 'vampires are dead', & she replied... ... luckily that doesn't bother vampires."

So, tonight I checked out the Continuum 5 opening ceremony, the Hitchhiker's Guide to Con Going panel, and the Chronos Awards ceremony. I saw a lot of people I've previously only "met" online or through their writing and editing, but I was too shy / too tired / too busy tonight to introduce myself, so I'll make that one of my many missions for tomorrow. I did run into a nice fellow I met...
