I’ve had a good weekend. Did a lot of walking and thinking which for writers are two activities that go well together.
Came to a decision about the hobo novel. I am going to start work on this soon. I had an idea of going back to the Cigar Factory on Decatur and writing, but TBH I didn’t want to lug my computer that far.
I’m lazy.
Anyway, headed home tomorrow and I’m ready. I’ve eaten a lot of good food here, but I’m ready to head back to Texas and eat pork fajitas and drink an ice-cold Lone Star.
Picked up some books and anthologies from the World Horror Convention. Very much looking forward to reading them. In the interim I became aware of a writer called Lucy Taylor and you can pencil me in as a big fan. Her work is very, very good. How was she flying below my radar? Who knows. But I will be following her career from now on.
Met and made some new friends at the convention. All in all I had a fun time, but I do confess the walking wore me out.
See you next time when I am home!

Conventions are great for rejuvenating the creative spirit. That’s what I found when I went to WFC in Toront.
I feel the same way. Just being around a lot of other writers is always beneficial for me in a creative way.
Mind you, did you find you needed a few days to relax? I was POOPED!
yeah, I was exhausted, I always am after these cons
Okay, good to know. I thought it was just me. Everyone was so upbeat! I figured I was the only one exhausted.
