Days of Going Wild

April 1, 2021

Since having my second COVID shot, I’ve engaged in multiple reckless behaviors! I had a haircut for the first time since June, and as a result no longer look like someone whose primary residence is a cardboard box! I’ve twice dined in restaurants! Indoors! (The restaurants were allowed to seat at half capacity, but I […]

Wild Cards Weekend

March 27, 2021

I’ve been unable to post here for several days due to technical issues which may or may not have been resolved. Which is really annoying, because I have something cool and fun to announce. This weekend I’ll be attending virtual Wondercon, the mighty game convention counterpart to Comic-Con usually held around this time. Among other […]

Quillifer Ink

March 22, 2021

So someone told me today that she saw someone with the word “Quillifer” tattooed on his arm. “Did you get a picture?” Alas, no.  But it’s cool regardless. Everyone should have a Quillifer tattoo.  Everyone.

Two Shots

March 19, 2021

So I am now officially Walter “Two-Shot” Williams.  I had my second Pfizer jab yesterday. I must say New Mexico is doing this right— we’re the most vaccinated state in the country.  Having a governor with a degree in Public Health is a plus. When I had my first shot, there was a long line […]

Generous Review

March 3, 2021

Paul Di Filippo reviews The Best of Walter Jon Williams.  Your takeaway: Emerging from a deep dive into this truly entertaining treasure chest of riches, the reader immediately has several reactions.

Not A Leg

March 1, 2021

I asked the market to give me a leg of lamb, but they gave me a pork roast instead.  So when life gives you a pork roast . . . I’m sure you can finish this sentence on your own. I decided to cook it sous vide, because sous vide cooks the food exactly the […]

It’s Here! (Apparently)

February 28, 2021

I’m told that The Best of Walter Jon Williams has started shipping after being delayed a few months by problems at the printer.  It was originally supposed to be out in time for the holidays, and when it was delayed to February I thought it might do very well for a Valentine’s present, but Valentine’s has […]
