I would rather read a book than almost anything else. I have 6 sitting in front of me...oh and the new Neil Gaiman! I went and listened to him read a chapter from The Graveyard Book last week in Boulder, CO. Amazing. Listening to an author read his own work is the ultimate. I wish you would come out to Colorado and do a reading!

we don't have anything by edmund wells, actually. he's not very popular.
I Propelled an interview with Neal Stephenson this morning. The whole thing is an awesome read, but one thing in particular jumped out at me: "If you choose to read a book today, it's not like a hundred years ago, when that was your only option. Today, when you read a book, you're making a con...

I am on vacation with my family, and I'm not especially motivated to do a whole lot of blogging. Regular posts will resume in about a week.

Wil,
You were totally hot in this video. Oh, and it was funny too.
i made some funny
My friends Greg and Kim are brilliant writers, and wonderfully creative people. I met them at ACME, where I had the pleasure of performing with them both, and writing with Kim. Greg has a company called Mediocre Films ("They're better than they sound") that has created some hilarious shorts, inc...

You found your niche. You don't have to be edgy, just be a douche.
all of my maps have been overthrown
I put on Miles Sklar's suit and attitude today for my part of a three page scene where I got to be a serious douchebag. We did a lot of takes on the scene, and over the course of six hours I noticed that it's equally easy for me to commit to being a kind, sensitive, vulnerable person as it is fo...

I am envious of your writing success, and also happy for you...actually really happy for you.
Geekdad reviews The Happiest Days
Ken Denmead, who edits the Geekdad blog at Wired, wrote a review of The Happiest Days of Our Lives this weekend: This is a wonderful little book. I hate to use a diminutive like "little," for fear of implying that THDOOL is less-than significant in some literary way; it isn't. It is a charming...

I can't wait to watch! I think all of us have commented on this post.

and now for something completely different
There was a time when I called myself an actor/writer. Then I realized that, saying it aloud, I was calling myself an actor, slash writer. While I suppose this would be immensely appealing to some people, it's not how I wish to be remembered by history, so I made an effort to call myself a write...

You were gorgeous!
I'm on boingboingTV today
My friends at boingboing started a daily online broadcast last week, and Xeni invited me in to the studio to talk about The Happiest Days of Our Lives. We taped it late last week, and it went live this morning. I didn't know we were going to shoot in front of a green screen, so I stupidly wore ...

I want one! I want one!
They're here!
My printer shipped a limited number of The Happiest Days of Our Lives to me earlier this year, so I could take them with me to the various conventions I appeared at over the Summer. The remainder of the first printing arrived about twenty minutes ago, and it's quite fitting that I feel the way...

You are seriously my favorite geek.
a little PAX video: NES
I just came across some video of my PAX keynote: This is me talking about the first time I played NES, with my brother, in a department store. It contains what is probably my favorite line of the entire keynote. I watched a lot of video from PAX while I was supposed to be working on my GiR t...

Snaps for Wil.
just a (geeky) audition
I had an audition this morning for a multi-episode arc on The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It's the first audition I've had in I don't even know how long, and it was early enough to directly conflict with the writer's hours I've been keeping for much of this year. Of course, Pasadena had the biggest...

Whenever you get nervous, just remember you are HOT!
regarding the PAX panic
It's been a long time since I felt this uncertain and doubted myself this severely. I guess that's a consequence of really caring about putting on a good show so the audience feels it's worth their time, but also so the guys at Penny Arcade don't look and feel like idiots for inviting me. I've s...

Excellent article. Makes me wish I could have been there!
Geek in Review: One Big Focus Group
This week's Geek in Review is, unsurprisingly, all about Comic-Con: My train ride to Comic-Con from Los Angeles was filled with Hollywood fucks, talking too loudly on their cell phones, bitching out their assistants, and trying to impress each other with how many scripts they had brought along t...

I'm so jealous that you got to hang with Neil Gaiman! It's because of you that I read Anansi Boys, and now I'm hooked.
Nerd Prom 2007: Day Two in Brief
Ryan came down from LA this morning, and we spent the day wandering around the con. I was really looking forward to hanging out with him and getting our geek on, but I think we were both disappointed with the day. It was sold out today, so by two in the afternoon, it was incredibly difficult to ...
