For those who aren’t already aware: My main e-mail address has been flaking out. For almost a month now.
grrrrr
If you’ve tried to reach me at Zjack@jackmanganZ.comZ (minus the “Z’s”), then your attempt has most likely failed, or been severely delayed. Sorry about this; please don’t think that I’m ignoring you. Yahoo tech support assures me that they are working on this issue. Sigh. In the meantime, you can try to hit me at Qharmonypatrician@yahooQ.coQm (minus the “Q’s”). Same inbox, but seemingly a more reliable address.

Keep the Deadpan content and communication coming, Deadpanites.

Deadpan is the whey.

Actually not my fault this time. . .

Cox screwed up the 69. Cox being my Internet provider. There was a service outage all night last night. Sorry. I’m about to switch to Qwest.

Coming Soon.
Jack will be back online this week as will Deadpan.

Thank you for your patience and your awesomeness.

The end.

Hey everyone.

Sorry for the no-new-Deadpan morning.

Moving.

There might be a new episode today, but it would not be a typical Deadpan. And it might not happen at all. We’ll have to see how everything goes. And. . . . it’s highly unlikely that you’ll see a new episode next week. Sorry again. Deadpan is not fading (Deadfade. . . hmmm, I like. Dibs on that term, all you other SpecFic writers), just pausing as I get my shit together.

Wish me luck (again) on my big cross-country move (again).

66 is coming.

Deadpan will live on.

Cool Jack Mangan publishing news: “Bodies in the Water” is the lead story(!) in the latest issue of Tales of the Talisman print magazine, available now from Hadrosaur Productions. you can order a copy from the website, if you’re interested.

The story is about classism and poverty in the face of a natural disaster.

My short story, “The Unsolvable Deathtrap”, which originally appeared in Interzone #202 is now available online at the TTA Press website {Thank you, Andy Cox!]:

Click here to read it.

And click here for a better look at Rik Rawling’s amazing artwork.

The story has been nominated (longlisted) for the British Fantasy Society’s Short Fiction Award.
*Snoopy dance* ahem. Very cool.

ditto, aka The Deadpan Greaseman, is doing something noble and wonderful and important. He is participating in a Relay For Life for the American Cancer Society. ditto is just a great human being. I’m honored to know him.

Please take a minute to check out his page and donate a few bucks.

I met Raequel in person at Podcamp NYC. She’s damn cool. And she interviewed me for her podcast! I just spotted the link and I’m going to listen now. Though of course, if I sound really stupid, then I’ll remove this blog post and pretend it never happened.

Just kidding. Please check out her shows, she has a lot to say.

Will be posted Thursday morning. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Wow, what an experience. If only I wasn’t too exhausted to write about it. Thanks and a Deadpan wordup to everyone I met at Balticon who felt inspired to drop by.

What an absolutely astonishingly awesome group of people.

I’ll be back to relate some stories and give some shoutouts. Just not right now.

(Yes, this is a Lazy Blog Post.)
