For those of you that have read the ARC, here is a spoilerific thread where people are casting who should play who in a hypothetical Hard Magic movie. http://wethearmed.com/index.php/topic,12980.0.html

Autographed Hard Magic preorder, mega tour, ARCs & more

Okay, first off this has fallen off the first page of the blog, so it is time to bring it back. If you want an autographed copy of The Grimnoir Chronicles: Hard Magic you can order them now from Uncle Hugo’s here. http://www.unclehugo.com/prod/ah-correia-larry.php  I’ll do personalizations too. Uncle Hugo ships to APOs and out of [...]

Video: Me and John Brown at LTUE

Here is my presentation with John Brown about how to develop killer story ideas: http://johndbrown.com/2011/02/how-to-get-and-develop-killer-story-ideas-recording/ This one went really extremely well. This is kind of John’s baby and I am the Vannah to his Pat. (meaning I’m the pretty one).  That bowling shirt makes me look chunkier than I am, but it sure does conceal [...]

Life, The Universe, & Everything this week at BYU

This week is the annual LTUE sci-fi/fantasy writing symposium at BYU.  I’m on a mess of panels and doing a signing.  This isn’t really a Con. There are no people in costume, but if you are interested in becoming a writer, or you are a writer and you want to get some new tips and [...]

Delay on patches

If you’ve got MHI patchs on order from me, don’t worry, you’re not forgotten.  I ran out a few weeks ago after thinking that I still had another box of them. I put in my order but something got messed up. So if you’re waiting for patches it is going to be another 2-3 weeks [...]

Some worthy charities

I’m posting the following links for you guys to check out. If you are looking to do some charitable giving, here are a couple of suggestions. They are good organizations and I’m posting them here as a favor to a friend: http://www.woundedeodwarrior.org/ http://eodmemorial.org/

Look, I found a hat that fits! or Correia, P.I.
