Notes coming back from the proofreaders. A lot of notes. This is a good thing, of course. But I had assumed pages 1 – 160 were close to being DONE done. Most embarrassing catch? “First Edition: Published January, 2021.” John

Hello there! Welcome to what I hope will be a sort of TAO OF IGOR Countdown Journal, as I finish off the last bits and pieces (most small – one large) of the new collection. Obviously, completing THE TAO OF IGOR’s taken far longer than I could have ever imagined. TLDR: because I didn’t get […]
Over the past many years, I’ve included a lunch note for Daughter, Age 13, when she goes off to school each day. (Honestly, I’m delighted – if a bit surprised – that she still asks for them.) Usually, these are directly tied to something she’s studying, or her current fandoms. The first two weeks of […]
In three days, I attempt Insane Charity Bike Ride 2020. Now with a duck on my head. (We passed the $10,000 mark). Possibly with two. Another insanity – I failed to post about it here, on DorkTower.com! Though most of my blogging will be over at the Dork Tower Patreon page, I blame #PandemicBrain. So here is the […]

There’s some long-awaited good news on the backer rewards front, but first… Today is “Thank You Patrons” Day, which I suppose is the “Talk Like A Pirate” day of crowdfunding. It’s been a bit of a down week, for me. Some professional disappointments, a family loss. I like to think I never take my Patron […]
In six days, I strap a duck onto my bike helmet, and hit Bike the barns – possibly better known, to my readers, as Insane Charity Bike Ride 2019. Bike the Barns helps the FairShare CSA Coalition bring fresh, organic food from Dane County, WI, farms to low-income families in the Madison area. It’s an amazing local charity, helping farmers as […]
This weekend is Gamehole Con, and Dorkstock 2018, I didn’t have anything scheduled for the convention Thursday, although I planned to pop in and say hello to everybody. Right now though, I need to get on the phone with Apple. Big-time computer crash. Also, the Doubleclicks are staying with us, and they arrive in a […]
I’m in Tuscany, trying to BE COOL ABOUT IT, for one of my very favorite shows in the entire world: Lucca Comics and Games. The moment I was dropped off at my magnificent hotel, I made a bee-line for Pizza Da Felice – absolutely one of the most magnificent slices I’ve ever had. I forget […]
