That time I wrote the obligatory year-end post

On Twitter there was a post going around asking people to list their top three accomplishments for the year. Easy peasy, I thought. I had my novel, The Music of Love, published. I completed my seco…

Happy New Year, everyone!

That time I had my whole family over for Thanksgiving

So that time would be tomorrow. And it’s not my whole family because we lost my dad 18 years ago tomorrow. But it’s still more folks together at once than has happened in a long time. M…

That time I was a page

This should start with an apology because it’s been much too long between blog posts. In my defense, I finished my second novel in the interim. (It’s in the editing stage now.) I’…

That time I wrote for four days straight

So I spent most of Labor Weekend 2018 writing. I took off Friday and also Tuesday and it gave me a feel for what it would be like to be a full-time writer. It’s really quite nice. Coffee as c…

That time I invented a poop rock

Those following along know that nearly nine months ago, we adopted Noodle, a Golden Retriever puppy. And you might know that dogs and I are not exactly mixy things. Before we brought her home I had…

That time I watched a human land on the moon

I’m a space nut. I love all things Mercury and Apollo. I think astronauts are the purest form of hero. I know weird little trivia like the fact that the geologist, Eugene Merle Shoemaker, is …

[fandom]

New day, new name. The Tumblr formerly known as thefandometrics will now only respond to @fandom. We’re more than just data. Spread the word.

Listen up. It’s time. You can feel it in your bones, can’t you? Or maybe it’s that little piece of your brain dedicated to your OTP, your secondary ships, and your favorite fandoms. Its whisper has turned into a blissed-out scream…

SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON IS STARTING IN THREE DAYS.

Can’t make it? Don’t worry—Tumblr will be there covering the most important stuff in comics, movies, TV, games, and all things entertainment. Consider us your eyes and ears. We’ll be on the floor, in Artist Alley, at outdoor activations, and everywhere in between. Take it all in via @fandom, the #SDCC tag, our official Instagram, and a few Answer Times and exclusive GIFs over on @stardom.

In previous years, we brought the best cosplay from the con floor straight to your dashboard (hi, Sexy Gandalf). This year we want to add a little audience participation to the mix. Let’s see you—yes, you—in your finest cosplay gear. Whether you’re at Comic-Con yourself or just dressed up at home, submit your picture to @fandom. We’re going to showcase the best of the best right here on this ol’ Tumblr.

SDCC is now only two days away. Are you following @fandom yet? It’s going to be your best bet at staying up-to-date on all our upcoming coverage.

That time I spent the weekend with my other family

Family can be a complicated, sometimes loaded word. There’s the family we are born to, there’s the family that nurtured us (sometimes the same, sometimes not), there’s the family …

The roots of writing lie in hopes and dreams, not in accounting – Michael Erard | Aeon Essays

Was writing invented for accounting and administration or did it evolve from religious movements, sorcery and dreams?

“The poet in me wants to repurpose the heavy thumb of authority’s use of writing on behalf of the powerless.“
