Brandon Sanderson / Re: Official Worldcon 2006 Thread

I mentioned earlier that a guy in one of my writing groups is going there and back with me.  So put Spencer Ellsworth on the list.

That means I have (comfortable) room for only two more coming back.

Amazon's #1 reviewer has added her review.  It's very positive, if a little confused about some of the plot points.   (Considering she's written almost 12,000 reviews, she probably reads so quickly that it's no wonder if she gets confused.)

OK, a guy in one of my writing groups has decided he wants to go, so that takes one of my car spots there and back.

Caravaning on the way back sounds good.  And if some people want to drive down with Charisa and back up with me, that's fine.

Since this is in the music department, it's obviously about that babyback ribs song.

I emailed the electronic version of "Upgrade" to Analog and asked which issue the story would be in. Turns out it will be in the December issue, so I won't have to wait as long as I thought.

I'm leaving Wednesday after work (5pm or so) from Orem.  Staying in Vegas overnight, hitting Star Trek: The Experience Thursday morning and plan to arrive in LA in that afternoon.

Driving back all the way on Sunday.

I've got room for three more each way.

Eric James Stone / "Upgrade"

Well, after ten and a half months without a story sale, I came home to find a contract from Analog in my mailbox.  They're buying my story "Upgrade" for their Probability Zero feature.

I'll believe Hollywood is sincere in caring about artistic integrity, and that the original work of art should not be altered to conform to the purchaser's taste, just as soon as directors start refusing to alter scripts, in order to protect the artistic vision of the screenwriter.

The ClearPlay technology for watching edited movies is still available (and with no question about legality, since Congress passed a law last year specifically allowing such technology.)

Brandon Sanderson / Mistborn marketing slogans
« on: July 13, 2006, 03:28:19 PM »
The key to a good marketing campaign is a good advertsing slogan.  Fortunately, the Advertising Slogan Generator is here to help:

Four out of Five Dentists Recommend Mistborn.
Yo Quiero Mistborn.
All The Mistborn That's Fit To Print.

Just ask Kevin Janderson how well the name change has worked for him.
