I assure you that this isn't a ploy to win a game of Mystic Warlords of Ka'a, or even a bowling match... this is just something that happens from time to time when someone like me is lucky enough to land a dream job that conflicts with a planned trip out of town.
I have only one word for this ...
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEATONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
Good News, Bad News
I've been seeing lots of messages on Twitter and Facebook from people who are really excited to come see me tell stories and perform at the upcoming Denver Comicon. I love it that so many people are excited to see me do my thing... and I feel terrible that I have to cancel my attendance this yea...
I completely agree that you should do that. :)
After twenty years, I finally got to say this.
A lot of incredible and wonderful things happened at the Calgary Expo this weekend, and when I'm not as exhausted I'll write about all of them. Until then, though, here is one of them that I really hope you'll spend 5 minutes watching: If you can't see the video, you can watch it right here a...
Wil,
That was a thoroughly wonderful moment, and the best part was seeing Patrick, Jonathan, Mirina, and Gates all show their genuine love and admiration for you as both an actor and a person.
Also, I saw what you did there after (finally?) getting a kiss from Mirina. :)

Yes, Wil, please tell us if you were able to convince Anne to put it on top of your tree :)
it's a festivus miracle
If you can't watch the embedded clip, you can see it here. You can see the whole thing on the Nerdist Holiday special, Christmas Eve on BBC America.
Wil says "Karen Gillan's underpants?!?!", then Chris goes into the history of the gift.

I agree 110%

I'm with you on this. I'll have to admit that I'm cheating by going back to the novel I tried to start last year during NaNo, but only because it hasn't left me and nothing new has come to mind.
And, I am totally with Wil on his post. In the past few weeks, the ideas and concepts for my novel have changed quite a bit. What started out as something based in the near future is now looking like having a more dystopian setting. Also, I'm sure I'll see some other characters come to life over the next approx. 50 days.
Writing about writing so I can get back to writing because today I'm having a hard time writing
I'm having a great time writing this thing that I can't get too specific about, but I'm severely blocked on today's work, so I thought I'd talk about writing instead of writing, in the hopes that it shakes up my brain and lets me get back to writing. When I write fiction, the first thing I do is...
I am 100% in agreement with Gween on this one. It should be turned into a painting. Or, better yet, a blanket!
In which I am a proud father
"I have to tell you," Jonathan Coulton's wife said to me on the last night of the cruise, "how wonderful your boys are." "I have two daughters," Peter Sagal's wife told Anne, "and I hope this isn't weird or creepy, but I really hope they meet guys like your sons." "Dude, you know you raised your...
Damned duplicate comments ...

I sincerely hope this is happening again in 2011 and includes the full w00tstock compliment. I will find a way to get my wife on a motherfucking boat. Oh, yes ... I *will* find a way.

Personally, I'd keep the book and just take Jeri Ryan ;)
a very limited (I mean VERY limited) autographed book lottery
Yesterday, I said: I found nine hardback copies of The Happiest Days of Our Lives that I must have put there when they first arrived at my house a couple of years ago. They look as perfect as they did the day they were taken out of the box. So I have this idea to sell them, that goes like this:...
Count me in on hopes I will get this. My only hope is that the wife will allow the purchase ;)
You can find me on Twitter under this name, or on gmail as russdwright

Wil smiled with glee as he finally found a crew for his own version of the Enterprise.

Wil, I plan on writing a pretty extensive blog post on this very soon, but I wanted to say it was because of you and your blog that I start to truly embrace my geekiness. I came to realize and understand that it was completely OK for me to like the things I like and to be openly proud about the fact that I am a geek.
Yes, my geek-adjacent wife rolls her eyes at me when I squee about certain things, but I have still be able to get her to do certain geeky things with me (D&D, Magic, going to the JJA Star Trek movie, and watching BBT are prime examples).
Like Anne, though, she has her limits of how much geek she can take getting on her at one time. I think you and Anne should collaborate on a book about being a geek/non-geek couple. It would really be of help in bridging the gap in that kind of relationship.
in which wil is live at seven
Today is my last day on this episode of Leverage. In just under 24 hours, I go back to real life. Yesterday, I went over to Pioneer Square to talk with Stephanie Stricklen on a local news show called Live at 7. It was a good time, and I got to meet a lot of Portlanders afterward who came out to,...
