I received a royalty check this weekend for On Writing Horror. This is our second dispersement, and thought he checks are paltry, it’s still revenue, so I ain’t complainin’.
I also received my contract for my essay in the forthcoming 2010 Stephen King desk calendar. This will be the second year that I have content in the calendar. It’s a fun little gig, and the remuneration is excellent.
I finished a book review for Cemetery Dance #63, and received my contributor copies of issue #60 this weekend.
Working my way through Teatime for the Traditionally Built with my wife, and Cemetery Dance (the novel) on my Kindle. I didn’t mean to put aside This is Not a Game, but I did, inadvertently, so I’ll get back to that one as soon as I finish CD. I also received my first eGalley for my Kindle, though not through official channels. It’s the ARC of a forthcoming novel by a NECON friend. The MS Word file converted to the Kindle really well.
Went to see Star Trek for the second time yesterday afternoon. It stands up very well to repeat viewing. I still don’t understand why Nero didn’t age during his 25 years lingering around in space waiting for Spock to show up (or what he did during that time) or why no one put up railings inside the Romulan ship to keep the crew from accidentally tumbling to their deaths, but it’s a very good movie.
