Warren Ellis Creates A Blog
From: xxxxxxx@xxx.xxx Sent: 04 July 2002 17:25 To: badsignal@lists.flirble.org Subject: BAD SIGNAL: bad signal WARREN ELLIS badsignal-unsubscribe@lists.flirble.org I've done a bit of consulting for OPi8 Forum, the online community for OPi8 Magazine - http://www.opi8.com , where I've done some writing in the past. The Forum is at: http://forums.delphiforums.com/opi8/start Aside from generally redesigning the Forum and writing the owners a bible on how to run it, I've created a by-invitation weblog section in it, and set up a bunch of people to write in it. These people are: * Sf author Richard Kadrey: seminal cyberpunk writer, creator of the Covert Culture Sourcebooks, WIRED journalist, currently reinventing the sf short short on infinitematrix.net. * Alternative model and actress Josie Nutter, whom you can find out about at http://www.josienutter.com * Mark Eris, who runs the British new-dark record label Wasp Factory, found at http://www.wasp-factory.com . * Writer, artist and musician Celia Goldberg, gore-fetishist member of the Canadian art gang Cute Red Newt. * Famed conspiracy author and comics writer Jonathan Vankin, splitting his time between journalism and forthcoming series VERTIGO POP! TOYKO. * Writer/photographer Jean Snow, a Canadian expat in Tokyo. * Screenwriter and filmmaker Adi Tantimedh, talking about his current project in New York. Still to come, a log by webdesigner, body-modification fiend and digital girl Sabina Ex Machina. if you think blogs are basically just guys talking about how they have no friends, you need to read these. Actual content by people with lives. -- W
