Things I Do To Avoid Blogging

Clean out blog spam while playing solitaire.
Pretend I’m reading io9 for blog-pertinent stuff.
Search Youtube for videos I can post. Yeah, right.
Get in discussions with random people on the internet who I absolutely have to set straight because THEY ARE WRONG.
Attempt to organize the media file on the blog. Still not organized.
Go back to playing solitaire. I mean cleaning out spam.
Decide to come up with better idea than the one I’m supposed to be working on. Waste 15 minutes on that.
Suddenly find it absolutely crucial I check out author blogs.
Run over to Netgalley to see what’s new.
Back to solitaire. Not even pretending now.
Call my kids to impart some critical life advice. Kids, who are grown adults, reply with, “Avoiding the blog again, are you?”
Decide I’m finally going to knuckle down and start that will-shake-up-the-fantasy-world book. I can string this one out for a good 30 minutes.
Realize it’s Wednesday, 6:59 PM. Time for Steve Amell’s abs. Kill another hour.
Oh, look, no more spam. Damnit, what am I going to do now?
Go to Netflix. Because verifying that Dean told Sam he tried to get him out of hell is super important, right? Get lost in Castiel-centric episodes.
Look at time and decide downtime with a book & sleep are essential for the blogger brain.

Book News
- Alan Tomkins has written a memoir that will be out in August next year. It’s entitled Star and Wars: The Film Memoirs and Photographs of Alan Tomkins. Alan was the art director on The Empire Strikes Back. His memoir looks like Star Wars will be heavily featured, judging by the cover at least. It’s already up on Amazon if you’d like to pre-order.
- Heir to the Jedi and Lords of the Sith have both been pushed back a little.
Just a heads up everyone; the publishing dates for our next two STAR WARS novels have moved a few weeks due to scheduling decisions.
STAR WARS: HEIR TO THE JEDI by Kevin Hearne – will now publish 3/3/2015
STAR WARS: LORDS OF THE SITH by Paul S. Kemp – will now publish 4/28/2015
- Amazon has an interesting book up on their site called Star Wars: Ships of the Fleet. The hardcover has a June 2015 release, is being published by Reader’s Digest, is aimed at readers ages 6 to 9, and will include a brand new ship from Star Wars Episode VII.
- And in case you missed it there were three new Star Wars books out this week – William Shakespeare’s Star Wars Trilogy: The Royal Imperial Boxed Set, Razor’s Edge paperback edition, and Star Wars Costumes: The Original Trilogy.
