Time to Get Back to Work

October 17, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund 1 Comment

John Picacio won the Hugo Award for Best Professional Artist this year. It was his eighth consecutive year nominated and his first win. On his blog, John wrote about a whirlwind weekend that had him winning a Chesley Award while at DragonCon one day, and the Hugo at Worldcon in Chicago the next. It was […]

Sunday Randomness

April 8, 2012 by Christopher Gronlund 9 Comments

Last month, I started a new novel — the first time I set out to write something with the goal of going straight to an e-book. It’s a young adult (YA) story called Old Man, and it looks like it will probably be a novella. I say probably because I just might have the first […]

Random Writing-ish Bits

September 9, 2011 by Christopher Gronlund 2 Comments

First, a big thank you to everybody who wished The Juggling Writer a happy birthday yesterday. I almost broke my 50-day social media break and replied to somebody on Twitter. I found out that Dubé Juggling Equipment wished The Juggling Writer a happy birthday on their Twitter feed. Forgive the Geek Drool Some people get […]

Shameless Plug

August 26, 2011 by Christopher Gronlund 8 Comments

I’ve been told by some people–including readers of The Juggling Writer–that I should let people know what I’m doing and have out there a little more often. So…while I typically don’t say, “Hey, this is what I have out there to buy, listen to, or sign up for,” today I’m saying, “Hey, this is what […]

Hell Comes With Wood Paneled Doors eBook

June 21, 2011 by Christopher Gronlund 4 Comments

While it’s been in the 100s all week, summer has officially arrived in Texas (and the rest of the northern hemisphere). In honor of the start of summer road trip season, I’m releasing the first novel I ever wrote, Hell Comes With Wood Paneled Doors, as an ebook. Right now, it’s available on Amazon.com and […]

Links for the week: Some good stuff about writing to be found out there this week, beginning with Nathan Bransford’s post: Do You Suffer from One of these Writing Maladies?

Very Short Stories

July 24, 2010 by Christopher Gronlund 1 Comment

Before tackling the first adult novel I remember reading, John Irving’s The World According to Garp (Modern Library) (affiliate link), the first adult fiction of any kind I remember reading was James Thurber’s short stories,  “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty,” and “The Catbird Seat.” I read them because they were available, and they were […]

Weekly Roundup (10/11/09 – 10/17/09)

October 17, 2009 by Christopher Gronlund Leave a Comment

This week’s roundup: Blog/News Finds I got my writing start with comic books. I am fascinated by the marriage of words and pictures, and believe writers can learn so much about writing by looking at artists and listening to their take on things. I liked this short interview with Maurice Sandak. [Along the lines of […]

Weekly Roundup (10/04/09 – 10/10/09)

October 10, 2009 by Christopher Gronlund Leave a Comment

The week’s favorite links. Blog Finds I know people who loathe Twitter. They say it’s annoying; they say they just don’t get it. I think many of these people view it as a quicker replacement for Facebook and shy away. For me, Facebook is where I keep in touch with people I actually know. Twitter […]

Free Library of Philadelphia Stays Open

September 26, 2009 by Christopher Gronlund 2 Comments

I recently posted about the Free Library of Philadelphia having to close many branches and end most of its programs. Good news! The Free Library of Philadelphia received a flood of support. Here’s a thank you from library president and director, Siobhan Reardon. There has been a lot of talk about electronic media taking over […]

Book Advances — How Much Money Do Writers Make?

September 13, 2009 by Christopher Gronlund 1 Comment

A $100,000 book advance sounds nice, doesn’t it? That sounds like enough money to quit your day job, spend a few hours writing each day, and then using the remainder of your time talking about creative things — with creative friends — over coffee or tea the rest of the day. Right? Wrong… I recently […]

Every Other Month (A New Book)

September 9, 2009 by Christopher Gronlund Leave a Comment

Granted, he works with a couple co-authors, but even still–17 books in 3 years is a lot of work, even for a fulltime writer like James Patterson.
