Before I get too deep in this week’s blog post, I’m going to point out a few things of my own that will be part of future blog posts (and also touch upon past posts). First, I’m participating in the first of three book bundles. This kind of bundle (there are several other kinds, which we’ll discuss) combines the fan bases of eight different writers. […]
The Business Rusch: Getting Rid of the Middle Man
Full confession: I stole this title from an Entertainment Weekly article that I’ll be referencing later in this blog post. This title fits what I’m going to do so much better than something dull like “Crowdsourcing” or something profane like “!x!?! the Suits.” I’d been planning to write about crowdsourcing projects for a while, but I hadn’t had a good handle on the topic. Then, […]
An SF Podcast and a Mystery Interview
Okay, the interview is not a mystery as in whodunnit. It’s an interview about mysteries, specifically mine. The interview mostly focuses on the use of setting in mystery fiction, which is one of my favorite topics. You can find the interview on the Scene of the Crime blog. The podcast is a discussion between me and the guys at SF Signal. Patrick Hester, John Patterson, […]
New Non-fiction and interviews
Brad Torgersen conducted an interview with me on the Writers of the Future website, all about writing. Check it out here. Once again, I’m a participant in the MindMeld column, this time about what’s on my to-be-read stack. Fortunately, John DeNardo only asked me about the science fiction, fantasy & horror, skipping all the other genres. Otherwise, I’d still be writing my answer. You’ll find the […]
Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 4 (Networking Part 10)
Artwork donated by Pati Nagle. The Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 4 (Networking Part Ten) Kristine Kathryn Rusch Unless I missed a major part of the topic, this is the final networking post. I’m sure those of you who are excellent networkers are relieved. I, for one, learned a lot, and I thought I was pretty darn good at networking. Even though all ten (!) […]
Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 3 (Networking Part Nine)
Artwork donated by Pati Nagle. The Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 3 (Networking Part Nine) Kristine Kathryn Rusch Well, the fine group of people I interviewed about online networking last week taught me something—all by example. I often post the Freelancer’s Guide late on Wednesday night—about midnight or so Pacific Time. It’s too late to tweet that the Guide is up (no offense to the […]
Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 2 (Networking Part Eight)
Artwork donated by Pati Nagle. The Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Online Networking 2 (Networking Part Eight) Kristine Kathryn Rusch I had a great week this past week. Because I knew I’d be finishing a novel, which is always a period of great airheadedness for me (more than usual), and because I knew I was heading into a part of the networking topic I felt completely inadequate […]
