  • My Panel At Mancunicon (Eastercon 2016)

    As well as having a stall in the trade hall to sell by books Game Night and If Pigs Could Fly, I am appearing on a panel at Eastercon on the subject of self-publishing. Hopefully, I’ll have something reasonably sensible and informative to say, on what not to do, if not necessarily on what to…

  • A Gopher’s Guide To Gophering

I’ll post again when I have more details of the panel, or if the time…
