Where the Map Ends...



The February CSFF Blog Tour ventures into new territory for the next coupla days. We won't be reviewing a book at all, but rather a righteous SciFi/Fantasy Website called:
Where the map ends.

I've only begun to explore its richness. But so far it seems to be a treasure trove for anyone who likes to write or read SciFi/Fantasy. I particularly enjoyed the interview with Frank Peretti.

The booklist ROCKS as well. Just make sure (ala the Matrix) that you take the RED pill.

More over the next coupla days. Click on the link above or in the sidebar to go…Where the map ends!

  2. Hey thanks Mr. B! That site is really cool. I was checking out his views on agents, publishing, etc. There's tons of important information on there for those of us who've never been published. Thanks!

  4. Thanks for the kind words, Wayne and friends!

    I hope you do take a minute to check out www.WhereTheMapEnds.com.

    And be sure to visit the site on March 1 when I roll out the collaborative fiction project. Futuristic space-faring aliens are invading a fantasy world that has only swords and sorcery to defend itself. Come pick your side and help us write the story!

    P.S. You can also check out my author site to see writing from my own published fiction: www.jeffersonscott.com.

    P.P.S. Thanks again, Wayne!

  10. Nice intro, Wayne. I'm trying to remember to tell people you're on the tour. Sorry I didn't get you added to the "changes." Hopefully enough places will get the message.

    Oh, and for dial-up folks like me? The blue pill, baby! None of that waiting for book cover images, as far as I'm concerned!

  13. Thanks, Cheryl! I'm very encouraged by www.WhereTheMapEnds.com and your Unseen Worlds and Becky's CWoF and so many others. Little by little, we are gaining ground for the King.

    Yes...take the red pill!

    And Wayne, there is this thing called a pick; it's used to strum guitar strings. And I hear one calling your name...

    "Wayne..."

    "Wayne......"

    Well, I have to go work on Book III now. Not sure what you're going to do.

  16. Oooh, Lord Batson - LISTEN TO CHRISTOPHER! Think of all the unhappy, unused picks just waiting, day after day, hoping that you will take one up in hand, and make music.

    Geez....he writes...he can play music...the only question is...can he sing??? LOL

    ReplyDelete
  20. I sing…just not very well. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  21. Anyone can sing; not everyone will sustain an audience. LOL! My shower and car are my concert halls. I get no complaints from them. I just know that as long as my listeners are inanimate objects, I'm safe and so are the eardrums of others. :P

    My iPod is my greatest audience...it's also quite a good microphone :)

  23. Yeah Brett - just don't be that guy who sings in public while listening to his iPod with the headphones on. Nobody can possibly be on key then. It happens and it's scary...
