This is technically the third installment of How I Met My Client, since these posts were inspired by one of our Knight Agency newsletters where I talked about the story of meeting Lynn Flewelling for the first time and had her share the story from her perspective as well. Not long ago, Christie Golden kickedContinue reading “Installment 2: How I Met My Client”

The Dreamland Chronicles
Wm. Mark Simmons is a genius. There, I said it. On the surface, his books are rollicking good times, full of action, puns and fun. Below the surface…well, they’re like an iceberg.

Installment 1 of How I Met My Client
Inspired by The Knight Agency’s April newsletter and the Agents of the Roundtable prompt, I decided to start a regular thing on my blog: “How I Met My Client”. Something like “How I Met Your Mother” only a lot briefer and, sadly, without the benefit of Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris). To that end, IContinue reading “Installment 1 of How I Met My Client”
