Should be rather exciting days for writer, Geo Martin, but he seems conflicted between the first day of shooting for Game of Thrones, and the fact many of his friends are assembled at the Comic Con festivities. Geo knows how to make his readers feel guilty as the wordsmith plugs away:) His last 2 journal posts…(the snow he refers to is one of the main characters - he's writing a Jon Snow chapter)

... or Santa Fe, as the case may be.
Half the editors I know have spent the weekend at comicon in San Diego, hobnobbing with many writers I know, attending fabuloous parties, enjoying great meals, and drinking in bizarre but fascinating human tapestry that is SDCC.
Tomorrow, off in Belfast, the cameras begin to roll on the HBO series. Northern Ireland is way ahead of us, so it's tomorrow there already. Only a few hours now.
And here I sit at my computer, still shoveling Snow. And snow. The snow won't stop. The squids don't like it much.
sigh
I'm missing all the fun, just to make more fun for you guys. Mood: tired

It's evening in Belfast, and the first day of shooting is now in the can.
Feels strange. Exciting, but also... I don't know, maybe I'm feeling a bit of empty nest syndrome. My kids have left home, and are making their own way in the world.
I'd wish good luck to everyone involved in the HBO production, but I recall that you never say that in the theatre. Maybe everyone concerned break several legs.
And me... well, a blank computer screen awaits. Still a lot of story to tell.
Mood: anxious<
