Have You Updated Your Blog Today?

One of my chapters was picked as the editors choice for science fiction on the critiquing web site Onlinve Writer Workshop for Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror. The review was critical about some elements, but found interesting elements, potential and enough of a "competent effort" to move the story forward.

Yesterday on the blog I discussed horror, and more specifically psychological horror and the horror which arises from the human soul. This post was triggered by reading HORNS, by Joe Hill - a book he awesomely signed and sent to me for a little translation work I helped him with. Great author, by the way, and really cool guy. Certainly carries on the family tradition well.

Hey guys. I posted these on the YA Blogroll but thought the interview about cover design might be of interest to others.

One is the Hemlock cover reveal over at the awesome YA Highway.

Then, over on my blog, I interviewed the art director behind the cover about the process the cover went through and her thoughts on cover design in general.
