In leiu of an actual blog post (due to the lack of an actual blog) ja tyler over at MudLuscious kindly allowed me to do a guest Facebook status at the MudLuscious Facebook page. I could post the entire status update here, as it comes in at around 400 characters in length, but I want you to get your clicking finger all sweaty.

Though today’s post over at the We Who Are About to Die blog isn’t an officially scheduled stop on my blog tour, it is still a guest post and it went live during my tour, so there! I talk about what it’s like to be a daddy author, as a contribution to We Who Are About to Die’s We Who Are About to Breed series.

Authors and booze go together like authors and self-destructive tendencies. Also, apparently like poorly articulated analogies. A great book on the subject is A Drinking Companion: Alcohol and Writers’ Lives. A great blog post on the subject of alcohol and authors is today’s tour stop at the PANK blog.

Today brings me to the site of an apparently data kindred. Matt Tuckey’s blog dabbles in talk of data and analytics, which is right where my head is at most of the day. I love data. And as a natural point of embarrassment, I have no friends (probably because I proudly announce that I love data). Over at Tuckey’s blog, I highlight a few data trends using my own Google Analytics data.

I’ve been writing a lot about the live author reading lately. Maybe because I’m heavy into promoting two books, and the live reading has become more and more common for me. Or because I think the live reading is a swell time and others should share in that swellness.
Today’s post at Shome Dasgupta’s blog talks about how to be a good live reading audience member. Read it. Act on it. Just don’t watch the depressing (yet hilarious) video above from The Daily Show in which John Hodgman and Jon Stewart discuss Borders going out of business.

Today I am honored to have a bit of page space at Paul Tremblay’s blog. Paul’s collection, In the Meantime, was one of my absolute favorite reads of 2010. He’s a frequent poster over at The Velvet, and an all around nice guy. He even recorded an episode of The Velvet Podcast with me, but tech complications made the episode unfortunately unusable. Damn shame, too. Maybe I’ll get him to let me try again in the future.
