Grass and Air
Kage Baker did a surprisingly good Blanch De Bois imitation. She wasn’t the sort of woman poor Blanche is, but she could summon an astounding Southern drawl from the depths of her maternal genome. Kage could coo like a born … Continue reading
The Necessarys of Writing
Kage Baker – stubborn devotee of writing every day that she was – would sometimes admit to being defeated. Not often, mind you: even when with faced with almost insurmountable barriers to accomplishing anything authorly, Kage would bend all her … Continue reading
Under The Veil
Kage Baker loved classical California June weather: “June Gloom”, as the non-appreciative call it, or “May Grey”, in years when it doesn’t cooperate with weather tropes. Historically, May and June are overcast. The sea and the air get amourous and … Continue reading
The Bowl
Kage Baker was not an especially social person. She didn’t like crowds. She didn’t like noise. She didn’t like competing for space, or attention, or a waiter’s notice. I don’t think there was a single activity that she liked better … Continue reading

Edges and Islands VII
Kage Baker could put up with a fair amount of distraction while she wrote. Sometimes. If she was in a good mood. If Harry was singing softly instead of making muttered threats in his Monster Voice. If I was knitting … Continue reading
Facing It
Kage Baker was a visual person. She interpreted her own thoughts as pictures, or so she said – and how on earth can anyone argue with that? No one else can know for sure what you see in your head … Continue reading
Having A Good Time In A Bad Place
Kage Baker was possessed of a will of iron, and an adamantine determination. She set her goals and she stuck to them until they were accomplished. Some of them took years to accomplish – but she did it. One of … Continue reading
