Harstine Island Writing Retreat 2012

M.K. Hobson — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:11:16 +0000

So I’m back from my weekend writing retreat up on Harstine Island (on Puget Sound) where I enjoyed a wonderful, productive time in the company of several talented women writers.

I completed the first draft of a new short story (which is exciting, given that my short story output has been less than nil [...]

Up early, writing

4 in the morning. Up and ready to write. Well, up at least.

So now that I’m working on the new duology I’ve made a committment to crank out 1,000 words a day. I’m thinking I need to do like David Levine, get myself a calendar and some shiny gold stars. There’s nothing [...]

Man I have been slammed this week, which accounts for my general level of radio silence. But I’ve got so much to report! Let’s start with costuming.

1) The great sewing project has well and truly commenced, and much progress has been made. Late last week I laced up the corset I made [...]

Finally, pictures!

My author’s copies, in all their glory.

Two copies sitting on my “magical reference” bookshelf. Notice how they magically look like books!

Speaking of magical reference books, see that cheesy Time-Life looking book “The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft and Magic”? [...]

Hot or Not: World Historical Individuals

Camera batteries still not charged, so while you wait here’s a picture of Leon, the kissable commissar! Probably just the most gorgeous member of the Politburo ever, especially when he whips off those little glasses and fluffs up his hair.

Where has the glamour gone?

M.K. Hobson — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 16:03:21 +0000

So I know that all I’ve been doing lately is posting about book stuff, and while I’m sure you all understand I feel like an apology is in order. I know what you all really tune in for are the tales in which I describe the unrelenting glamour of my life. At the moment, [...]

My Plum Tree

M.K. Hobson — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 20:58:43 +0000

One of the things I love about my house is the trees around it. The most imposing of these are the two huge walnuts — one on the side, and one in the back (though they may not be long for the world, alas, according to the tree trimmers we had out last year.) [...]
