‘Tis the Season
We’ve reached that point in the year, when everyone is rushing about hither and yon, when we scarcely have time to breathe, much less to write well-reasoned blog posts and/or comments. Therefore, I’ll keep this post short and sweet, and I’ll ask a single question: What speculative-fictional gifts are you hoping to give or receive [...]

The Category Game
I spent the better part of the past weekend promoting my latest novel, DARKBEAST, to avid readers who are not necessarily readers of fantasy and science fiction. (I was attending the Baltimore Book Festival’s Children’s Bookstore Stage and the New Atlantic Independent Booksellers Association annual meeting.) I got my patter down pretty quickly: “DARKBEAST is [...]

Ideal Convention Panels
I’m making this post from Chicago, where I’m attending the World Science Fiction Convention. This year, I’m registered as Morgan Keyes, because I’m celebrating the release of my first-ever middle-grade novel, DARKBEAST [Amazon | B & N | Indiebound]. My programming is relatively light — I’m participating in the writers’ workshop, and I have a [...]

I Know It When I See It
Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart famously wrote about pornography, “I know it when I see it.” Similarly, I know a fantasy novel when I see one. And yet, how broad a range does “fantasy” cover?

The Effect of Water and Walking (or, Brainstorming)
For the past month, I’ve been fiddling with a particularly difficult novel.

I’ve been fighting to find ways to write that aren’t preachy, aren’t boring, and — most of [...]

Call Me A Rebel (Or, My Life As A Novella-ist)
I know that this website is hosted by SFNovelists. I know that, by definition, we focus on novels around here, on full-length speculative fiction. And for all of my writing career, I’ve been a novelist. But last month, I branched out a little bit. I published my first novella, Capitol Magic. This wasn’t my first [...]

Which Con Are You?
Hey there! Just a quick post from me today, because I am deep in the throes of finishing DARKBEAST REBELLION (sequel to DARKBEAST, which you’ll be seeing on August 28 of this year…) I *thought* that I was writing the penultimate chapter yesterday, but that turned out to be a lie, because I had to [...]

You Don’t Know Me
There’s a T-shirt that vendors sell to tourists near the National Mall. It purports to be from the Federal Witness Protection Program, and it says: “You Don’t Know Me”. For the first time in my life, I’m thinking of buying one. Because, for the first time in my life, I’m writing a novel under a [...]
