I really don’t have a whole lot to say about Golden Dreams. I enjoy it. It makes me tear up in the right places, and laugh out loud where it should. Ardath Mayhar captures the essence of Fuzzies very well, although there are a few inconsistencies. For one, she has all Fuzzies aware of the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #112.9 – Golden Dreams by Ardath Mayhar
I just finished Fuzzy Bones, and started Golden Dreams, so you’ll get my analysis of that one, too, as soon as I finish it. Ace contracted William Tuning to write Fuzzy Bones to either coincide with, or ride the success of, the re-release of the first two Piper books. I find it sort of … Read More Geek Girls Rule! #112.75 – Fuzzy Bones by William Tuning
Ok, I don’t know how forgotten the Little Fuzzy (Little Fuzzy, Fuzzy Sapiens, Fuzzies and Other People) books actually are. But I’m one of the few people I know who has read them. H. Beam Piper wrote them in the early 60s shortly before committing suicide. The first two books, Little Fuzzy and Fuzzy Sapiens saw… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #112 – Forgotten Fiction 1 – H.

The beloved Husband What Rules created a Facebook Fan page for Geek Girls Rule!, sort of on a dare. But it exists now. So go friend it so I can see what sorts of miscreants read my stuff. Bear in mind there are TWO Geek Girls Rule! groups. Mine is the one that’s all run… Read More Quickie!
Via the blog Jezebel, I found a link to a year old article by Carrie Fisher in the Daily Mail, essentially a synopsis of her life to that point. I strongly recommend reading it. I’ve also added her blog to the blogroll on the right hand side of the page. It did remind me that… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #111 – I wanted to be Princess Leia
THIS has got to be some frat boy console-gamer* doucheface’s idea of a joke, right? Tell me it is, because seriously, this is one of the biggest pieces of bullshit I’ve seen in ages. The article claims the Microsoft is planning a way to link your gaming avatar’s appearance and access to facets of certain… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #110 – This has got to be a joke, right?
Holy crap are we packrats. Yesterday evening, The Husband What Rules and I went through three boxes of gaming stuff. Not gaming books, gaming STUFF. These boxes held folder upon folder of old campaign notes, old character sheets, maps, etc… Allow me stress that: THREE BOXES of this crap. Two legal archive boxes and one bigger… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #109 – Are all Geeks packrats?
2009 had it’s ups and downs. We lost Lotus, Wash and Ronin, but we also got a new house, Jimmie and met a whole lot of new awesome friends. On the whole, however, I’m hoping 2010 is better. This year I resolve to finish the two games I’m writing and start sending stories/novel prospectuses off… Read More Happy New Year to all my Geeks!!!
Mostly. There are still a few odds and ends in the old Geek Cave, but mostly we’re in, the new Roomie is in, all the furniture is in, the cats are in… We’re living there. Woo! We are currently two blocks from our favorite Geek-themed coffee house, a game store, a bookstore, several awesome restaurants… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #108 – We’re Moved!
