Liveblogging from the John Scalzi appearance pimping his book The Last Colony. Aside from being a helluva writer, he’s also an engaging speaker. Unfortunately, you can only catch him live in Richmond as this is the tail end of his tour, but the fine folks at Google have immortalized his speech there.

Also, based on the number of attractive, literate women standing in the book-signing line, I’m definitely recommitted to finishing my novel one of these years.
