Still need to deal with all the contractual stuff, so nothing is certain. But news from New York is that Analog wants to publish my novelette “Ellipses…” This is, as always, pretty good news. Share Me

So, yeah. It’s been a few days, eh? Sorry about that again. Work has been a pain, and we’ve been traveling, and blah, blah, whah, whah… But, it’s all true. I swear it is. Here’s a picture I took of Chicago to prove it. While there we also saw several interesting things like the Cirque […]
Read More ...Diving Into the Wreck
I’m reading Kris Rush’s “Diving Into the Wreck” now. I’m a bit over a third of the way through, and I have to say I’m really liking it. It’s been a nice, easy read with a compelling character and an intriguing story. Reminds me much of SF I read as a kid, but with a […]

Read More ...The Search, The Conversation
I was looking for my jump drive this morning. It was nowhere to be found. Lisa watched me with some reasonably self-contained humor as I determined that it was probably still at work. Run time up to later this morning. Here is a rough copy of an IM conversation we held. Ron: BTW, I found […]

We’ve got a local site here in Columbus (Indiana, not Ohio) that focuses on creative people in and around the local area.

And, if you’re interested in something a little more science-y, here’s news of some […]

Among the facts that the story gave was that these dogs burn an incredible number of calories while participating in this race, some ridiculous number […]
Read More ...Best Western
I’ve got another recommendation–this time it’s not SF at all. I stumbled upon PRI’s Selected Shorts podcast, which is a show that features various people reading short stories of some note to a live audience. Often I like the stories, sometimes I don’t. In this case, I quite enjoyed “Best Western“, a short story by […]
Read More ...Filters … Grrrrr
I enjoy work, and I support a corporate environment’s right and need to filter what their employees are allowed to see while at work. That’s all good. And I work at a place that has a very workable and professional policy toward the use of the Internet. I like that. I admit, however, that I […]
Read More ...Progress?
I hear you. Enough about Picasso’s Cat and all that stuff. What about your actual progress? Are you becoming a slacker, or what? The answer is, well, uh … maybe a little. But it’s not bad, really it’s not. At least I don’t think it to be bad. Between work and travel and spending time […]
