The Way I Buy Books These Days

December 12, 2014 by Christopher Gronlund 6 Comments

Nice bookshelves

If you looked at the bookshelves in the apartment where I live, you’d probably think I’m fairly well read, or that I at least read more than most people. But for a writer, you might think, There should be more books here… Most Books I’ve Bought… Most books I’ve bought over the years are on […]

I’m Not Good at Self Promotion

December 20, 2013 by Christopher Gronlund 7 Comments

I’ve said before that when it comes to self promotion, I’m not the best. Want proof? Over a month ago, I had a novella called Old Man released as an ebook. Now, I did write a blog entry about writing the same story in different formats shortly before Old Man was released. But I never […]

The Importance of Young Adult Fiction

November 19, 2013 by Christopher Gronlund 2 Comments

When I was 12, an age deemed by many to be perfect for young adult fiction, I gravitated toward John Cheever, John Irving, and Stephen King. I wanted to read what my mom, sister, and step father read. So…Cheever’s short stories were a good intro. King was a no-brainer; “The Body” was the greatest thing […]

Writing for Different Mediums

November 10, 2013 by Christopher Gronlund 4 Comments

On November 19, my novella Old Man will be released as an e-book. Old Man is years in the making, originally intended as a comic book. When that didn’t work out, it became a well-received screenplay. And…when that didn’t work out, it became an e-book. I’m glad that it made it to a novella because […]

Shawn Kupfer is Full of Fear and Anger — An Interview

October 30, 2013 by Christopher Gronlund 2 Comments

When we last left Shawn Kupfer, he was going Supercritical. These days, he’s still writing the 47 Echo series, with a big change in the way it’s being published (spoiler alert, but not really: he started his own electronic press). He’s also added a weekly podcast to his already busy schedule of blogging. This time […]

The Death of Books

December 1, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund 4 Comments

Books are dead; long live the e-reader! Nobody reads anymore, so why bother writing? By the time 2015 rolls around, publishing will be dead! Why in the world would anyone open a bookstore these days?! I’ve heard all this (and more) said about the industry. Being a realist, I know things aren’t the way they […]

What is Genre

October 22, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund 4 Comments

Genre’s a funny thing. There are definitely genre books out there. If I pick up anything from Harlequin, I know what I’m getting (although, they do publish more than just romance). If I swing by Subterranean Press, it’s science fiction, fantasy, or horror. But even there, in those genres, things are not always so easily […]

The Book Pile: Identity, by Mark Hosack

August 7, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund 2 Comments

I preface this review by saying two things: 1) I am friends with Mark Hosack and 2) This review is based on an advanced reading copy — not what you can buy right here. (On special, even!) But back to the advanced reader copy thing…this review is based on that. For all I know, in […]

Kickstarting a Relaunch

June 5, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund Leave a Comment

The Kickstarter project for Hell Comes with Wood Paneled Doors went live as Venus traveled across the sun. I’d say that’s reason enough to check it out!
