I visited Torchwood, finally.

Found a way to pass the time while waiting for the 50th anniversary special of Doctor Who.

In a word:

I know, it’s not new.

Truth is, I had stayed away from Torchwood because I knew it was geared toward adults, and one of the appeals of Doctor Who is that I get to watch it with my wife and teen and pre-teen sons, fun for the my party of five. But this weekend all of them took a road trip that I my job prevented me from joining, thus, faced with the choice of visiting The Doctor in one of the old seasons or watching something just as good and new…well, guess where I clicked.

I started with 2006’s season 1. And thus far, the third chapter, Ciberwoman, is by far my favorite one. Very dramatic, well acted, and with a nice Frankenstein twist. It was also good to see Ianto questioning Captain Jack’s leadership, the exchange between was superb.

So, I'll keep myself entertained for bit.

Setting the details

Sci-fi author Jacquelpine Lichtemberg invited me to do a follow up post on my previous entry about settings. This time I concentrated on the details.

Participating in The Thriller Roundtable

This week, a group of authors of the ITW are discussing how to bring readers into a conspiracy with the writers:

George Bernard Shaw said that “all professions are conspiracies against the laity.” This week, we ask ITW Members Robert Rotstein, Evonne Wareham and J. H. Bográn “How do writers invite readers into the conspiracy?” You won’t want to miss it!

Come and enjoy the fun.

And the veil is lifted for my new novel

I've posted about Highland Creek in the past. I've also mentioned that it would most likely suffer a change in the title.

Well, now the deed is done and thanks to the support of a group of friends I managed to find a suitable title for my next novel:

Fellow Death Toll author Stephen Edger invited me to visit his blog, so I took the chance to explain how the title change came about. Here's the link:
