Neural Spasms: September 2011
http://neuralspasms.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Wednesday, September 7, 2011. Taking stock as Q4 approaches. So, although I've had to re-evaluate some of my goals for the year, I am still on track for others. This has been a mixed success. I managed to initiate a regular blog for Utility Fog Press. With three other writer/editors and there were regular entries for a while, however, it has slowed now and the last entry was in July! But, on the positive note, I have started formally compiling worl...

Neural Spasms: October 2011

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Friday, October 28, 2011. Digital Film School and other distraction. It's been difficult getting back into the writing in the last few months, partly due to my latest ACL resconstruction (6 weeks ago) and partly because I'm taking a digital film course from the Open University (T156) that's taking more time that I had thought it would. Anyway, despite this, I am trying to get back to writing. My two goals for year end are to write the new scrip...

Neural Spasms: August 2012
http://neuralspasms.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Friday, August 31, 2012. Something Old, Something New. Music: Mr. Saxobeat by Alexandra Stan. Being as this novel is a bit of a different direction from my usual, I intend to self-publish under a pseudynom and have some fun with it. So I'm currently preparing a website and a video trailer, and I'm going to make a KickStarter, or more likely RocketHub (due to international restraints). Thursday, August 9, 2012. Music: Heavy Fuel by Dire Straits.

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Sunday, September 30, 2012. Warning: Tongue in Cheek Reviewers on Amazon. Just caught a cold from the little one. My throat is on fire :(. Playing on My Life's Soundtrack: Major by The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. And go no further. Or we see that the 5stars heavily outweight the other ratings so figure it must be good? Often, I suspect. But are all the reviews real? You may have guessed, it was the latter. Some of the shorter reviews read like the follo...

Neural Spasms: April 2012
http://neuralspasms.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Friday, April 20, 2012. Those of you who know me, probably realized I'm not that big of a fan of writing courses. As mentioned, I've had one earlier, in addition to a Writers' Digest convention with panels and agent meetings in York. Neither impressed me terribly, although something good did come from each. In the first case, the course led to the creation of the writing group I'm in, The York Novelists Society. So, when it comes to writing courses...

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Thursday, March 15, 2012. What a difference simple post-production can make. Those of you who know me, know that besides writing I do web design, video production and digital artwork. Links to all aspects of my work are online at my main site: www.edwinhrydberg.com. This whole side of my life only started about four years ago so, despite some successes, I'm still learning the tricks of the trades. Fortunately, a lot of this kind of lighting issue c...

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Monday, November 12, 2012. Impressions of Novacon 42. Back and ready to get going. Music: La Isla Bonita performed by Alizee. Back late yesterday from Novacon 42. My third Novacon in the five years I've been in England and a relaxing, enjoyable experience. The Novacons are run by the Birmingham SF group. Beer There's also a deal room and an art show, and a few off-stream events. The result, after what must have been some interesting bidding, was my...

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Monday, February 27, 2012. Future Cars 1: V2V Will Change Our World. When science fiction becomes real. This is happening more and more, and ruining my chances to be seen as prophetic. That aside, a new tech in development that is being supported by some major groups, is V2V or Vehicle to Vehicle communications. So, I've told you what V2V is, and you can see the obvious ways it could change our lives, but what about some of the less obvious ways?

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Images from the Scrapbook. Another rainy, dreary day in Isles. Music: You Should Be Dancing by the Bee Gees. I've been on a bit of a political rampage lately, so I thought I'd get real now and calm things down a little. Slow Burn - EHRydberg. Beach Memories - EHRydberg. Beach memories and Hellsing were both done primarily in Daz3D as simple model-centric images. Further postprocessing with Gimp made them what they a...

Blog of SF Writer, Artist and Scientist Edwin H Rydberg. Saturday, March 30, 2013. Eastercon blog-a-day 2: Colonizing Mars. Just another day for you, you and me in Eastercon. A number of interesting panel discussions today, but I've selected some interesting insights from one called:. Building a Mars Constitution. As such a discussion is want to do, it degenerated numerous times, into mini-conversations on such tangents as primary vs. secondary colonists, how to construct a Martian colony, the moon i...
