A New eBook, a Signing, and an Announcement



First: An Original, a short story that appeared in Man Against the Future has been made available exclusively on Amazon as a single.

An Original is a story that is near and dear to my heart, about a man who learns a terrible secret about himself.

It's currently being adapted into a screenplay.

Second: I will be attending a pair of book signings on February 18th. Here are the links to the Facebook events pages. (The First Signing and The Second Signing). I will have print copies of God Bless You, Mr. Vonnegut there, as well as CDs with the audio version of Lost at the Con for sale.

I'll be signing alongside Tracy Hickman, L.E. Modesitt, Dave Farland, and Paul Genesse.

Third: Over this last weekend I lost my grandmother after she had a long battle with Alzheimer's. I was asked to write the obituary and I thought I'd share it with you. She was an incredible woman with lots and lots of fascinating stories and, though all 85 of her years had to be boiled down to about 500 words, I hope you get that impression reading the obituary.

You can read my words about her here.

And, as always, I want to thank you guys for all of the support you've given me as a writer over the years. It's meant the world to me. And if I could ask one more time for you to review any of my books or stories that you've read or liked, that would help immensely. It can be on Amazon, Facebook, Goodreads, Twitter, or wherever else you let people know what you think. I can't explain how important friends, fans, and readers spreading the word is to a writer.

The End of an Era and a New Beginning

It's been a long time coming, but I think an upgrade to my web presence was long overdue. I began this blog in 2005 and it's served me well over the last 13 years. My goal in those early days was to write a short story every month. Back then, that was the only writing I was doing. This website, then called "Bryan's Short Story Corner," got me into a regular writing habit. One that I still maintain today. I hoped it would help me get eyeballs on my words and, looking back at some of those early short stories, I shouldn't have wanted any of those eyeballs looking. Today, my Patreon fills that void. There is a dedicated group of supporters there that help subsidize my ability to write short stories on the regular. After I started publishing books, this blog morphed into a place to talk about my projects and writing and it worked well enough for that for a long time. But now I have Twitter and Medium for those functions and they have much cleaner and easi...

Anatomy of a Scene: All the President's Men

All the President's Men is one of those perfect movies. Based on a stunning true story with a brilliant screenplay from William Goldman (we've already gone through one of his scenes here with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ), it's a movie that brings all of the elements of character, plot, and drama together in a way that makes me really love and admire it.  The scene I want to go through is one that comes during a particularly trying time in the film. For those unaware, this film tells the tale of Woodward and Bernstein, the Washington Post reporters who cracked the Watergate story. And now, looking back on it, it all feels like one big victory, but it was marked by a number of defeats.  This is them reporting to their skeptical editor, Ben Bradlee (played brilliantly by Jason Robards) about where their investigation is at. Immediately preceding Woodward and Bernstein walking in, a salesman is trying to sell Bradlee on features his papers doe...
