Over at Joseph Mallozzi’s blog last week, Michael Moorcock answered an extensive battery of questions from Joe’s fans, mostly about Elric and ELRIC: THE STEALER OF SOULS). It’s fabulous stuff. Joe’s blog is terrific because he’s so well-read and makes every effort to help others be the same. He’s the executive producer of the STARGATE:…
Free stuff, folks — courtesy of the good people at Tor.com. They’ve just posted my artwork for George Alec Effinger’s A THOUSAND DEATHS as a wallpaper — part of their week-long celebration of the Hugo Professional Artist nominees. Go grab it while it’s there.

It’ll be featured in the forthcoming massive art book KNOWING DARKNESS: ARTISTS INSPIRED BY STEPHEN KING. ‘SALEM’S LOT is one of the seminal vampire novels of the modern era, and a book this famous comes “pre-loaded” in the audience’s imagination with a lot of vampire visual…

Looks like I have a face at Twitter now. Been tweeting a bit in the last 12 hours or so, and seems to be running smoothly. Let’s hope it stays that way. 🙂
So far at least. After much ballyhooing from friends, I joined Twitter yesterday. Bad move.

I’m proud to be illustrating the covers for this series and Book 3 should be coming soon, from what I understand. Go, Pyr, go! 🙂
