As usual now, it’s been a very busy stretch of days in Camp Carlson. Mostly good news, hard work, progress… but my wife’s cinnamon-sugar shaker has defeated me once again in mortal combat!
From A Distant Shore And Back In Time
Recently I learned that the original short story of Skostniałe niebo, better known as The Frozen Sky, appeared in the July 2010 issue of Polish sci fi magazine Nowa Fantastyka.
Heck, they even paid me for it. Even better, this issue was a Poul Freaking Anderson special! That’s how far I’m willing to go to share a table-of-contents with a Grand Master: across the continents, across the oceans, across space and time. Here’s the spooky cover art.
I’ve Been Away… But I’ve Still Been Blabbering! :)
Hard to believe it was September when I last added to this blog. Mostly that’s because my brain has been inside Europa. Partly it’s because I was fielding interviews and guest pieces elsewhere. In case you missed ’em…
Here’s an author interview with moi by top horror writer Iain Rob Wright.
And another interview with moi by the world-traveling Carl Slaughter with Diabolical Plots.
Loads of fun! 🙂
Catching up in 2014
Holy godzillas, dude! It’s hard to believe I haven’t blogged since October… but more and more, I find myself letting the social media fall to the wayside. Partly that’s because I spend all day in front of a computer, so more computer isn’t too exciting. Mostly it’s to make time for the flesh-and-blood relationships in my life. In the rare spare minutes of our busy schedules, I’d much rather talk to my wife or my friends than hang out on FB. I realize that makes me sound crazy. Like a fox. 😉
Last year was a very good year, and I hope to keep my nose to the grind throughout 2014 to make it a good year, too.
In the meantime, it looks like my guest blog for SF Signal in February made their top ten most viewed for 2013, which is fun and cool. In case you missed it, here’s “Jeff Carlson on the E-Report” discussing my early experiences with The Frozen Sky.
More recently, the good folks at Cult Pop also asked me to return for an interview re: Interrupt. 
It’s here.
As usual, I may have too much coffee, so buckle in and brace yourself for Mr. Motor Mouth. Lots of stuff pouring out of my brain in a hurry. That’s what you get in a Carlson interview, ha ha.
More soon.
Big news on the horizon!
