Replying to @WJRoberts12
@WJRoberts12 takes the stage as today's featured INTERGALACTIC REJECTS author, telling a tale of snark that had to wait. Enjoy! And don't forget the @Cal_of_Fools #kickstarter. You can't start collecting stretch goals until we fund! facebook.com/photo?fbid=3800…

My story “Trust Fall” is in the Sep/Oct @analog_sf ! I saw a copy on the newsstand at @BNBuzz The cashier rang a little bell when I said I was in it. Apparently they do that if you are an author, or if you manage to eat a whole (paperback) dictionary in less than 15 minutes!

Many people have a TBR pile, but I am curious - writers, how long is your TBW pile? (2 b written 😉)

How many of you have a #critiquepartner ? If yes, where did you find yours? Looking for someone familiar with dark fantasy/ thrillers with romantic subplots #WritingCommunity #writers #authors

Hey @sfwa... I applaud the name change in June that made the org more international and less "of America", but why oh why do you still require English language publication credits? (Someone pointed this out to me today and I couldn't believe it.)
