The Week In Review

This week we featured four true badasses in the WHY I'M BADASS interview series. They were:

Molly Tanzer

Weston Ochse

Donna Moore

Matthew C. Funk

We're also running a contest so that you might win a signed copy of Southern Gods. All you gotta do is comment on any of the WHY I'M BADASS interviews of last week (and be a U.S. Resident) to win a copy.

WHY I'M BADASS News

I'm taking next week off on the WHY I'M BADASS interviews. I've got too much stuff piling up around here to do it four days a week, every week. But we'll return the following week with Matthew McBride, Martel Sardina, Benoit Lelièvre and Joelle Charbonneau. After that, we'll be going to a two per week schedule. One male interview subject and one female. Or we might go to all female for a while. It's funny - guys talking about how badass they are is just par for the course. We're always doing that. But women don't get as many locker-room opportunities to talk about their badassery. So that makes it interesting. And I love ladies. Anywho, we'll see what shakes out.

In other news, I've signed my Simon & Schuster contracts and got a little emotional while I was doing it. It felt like my life was changing. For the better. Still keepin' dat dayjob, though.

Let's see, what else. Oh, I'm not doing book covers for cheap anymore - I got burned one too many times. You want a book cover from me, you'll pay my standard rate of $75/hour. Which means, I'm not doing bookcovers anymore.

Over at The Night Bazaar, I forgot to write my duly appointed blog post. So I wrote a sonnet about Twirling Mustaches instead, which took me approximately the time it would have taken me to write the assigned blog post. I know. Time management issues, I haz them.

That is all. Enjoy watching Harry Potter this weekend.
