Looks like a good SF Blog I hadn’t found before, wherein I also found this article of a blogger interviewing other SF bloggers about … SF Blogging! Which of course sounds like something I should think about reading….

The Ten Blogmandments
Wherein the coiner of the term “weblog” espouses on some guidelines for good blogs. Wait a minute, that’s just a link to the news about the story in Wired, here’s the real list!
NaNoWriMo?
Yeah, I thought it was the Japanese cell phone format or something, but no! It’s National Novel Writing Month! Aww geez, I’m like four days late, which means I’ve got to pump out about 2,000 words per day. The gist is to write a 175-page, 50,000 word novel in November! C’mon you can do it too! Riiiiiight. Closer to 3,000 words a day to make up for Thanksgiving break, vacation travel and what not. Ug!
Shadowrunning has a new look…
I am very happy to announce that Shadowrunning.com has a new look. Many thanks to milo for the killer word press theme. With that out of the way we can start the creative juices again. Happy Blogging!

BRBR Shout out!
Just a quick note that Ling has started his own blog – “Book Review Blog Review” or BRBR for short. I have added his site to the blog roll. I think you will find the visit well worth it.
Blogging from Firefox
Just found this great Firefox addon called ScribeFire (actually Ling told me about it). It allows you to blog directly from within Firefox. Very cool you should check it out.
Powered by ScribeFire.

Just a note that I will be joined by Ling in blogging on shadowrunning.com. Ling and I go way back (30 years or so) and have to say that of the two of us he is better “read” than I and far more articulate. While I stumble along with my posts, Ling will be churning well thought out and well written posts, hopefully on a frequent basis ( I hope ). He is also quite the writer so I am hoping that he will post some short stories as well. Just an FYI both Ling and I have 60 + years of science fiction reading under our belts (now much bigger than they were when we were kids) so hopefully we will have something me to say on this blog. We be going to a signing of William Gibson for his new book Spook Country shortly and will report to you on how that went.
Welcome to Shadowrunning…
Just a quick welcome to Shadowrunning, a blog devoted to all things cyberpunk. What is Cyberpunk? I define it as near future science fiction. The focus of cyberpunk books is usually “Earthly” and not on “Outer Space” and most books are less concerned with Space Travel and more with human/computer interaction.
The title of my blog is a homage to the Shadowrun novels of which I lovingly refer to as my “romance novel” reading. Shadowrun takes cyberpunk one step further (back?) by the inclusion of magic into its world, and if you have not read any of the books 45 books in the series and want something light and fun to read I highly recommend them. Should keep you busy for a couple of weeks.
Well stay tuned and I will have lots to share with you.
