Computers and Morays

June 17, 2014

Here’s the biggest spotted moray I’ve ever seen.  His head and neck seemed kinda large, and then I saw the huge tail folded up clear on the other side of the coral lump he was hiding in, and I was deeply impressed.  He’s not as big as some of the green morays I’ve seen, but […]

Land Legs

June 15, 2014

I’m back on land, though I won’t be home for another day or so.  And I still have my sea legs— the whole world pitches and rolls just a little bit when I stand up or walk. It was a terrific week, and you’ll be reading about it for a while.  And in the meantime, […]

Caribbeaneana

June 7, 2014

So here’s the first view of the Caribbean, from the seaside here in Ft. St. George.  Personally I could have done with more blue sky, but on the whole there’s not a lot to complain about. I’ll be boarding the larger boat on the right tomorrow, for a week at sea. The flight in was […]

Drop in the Ocean

June 6, 2014

So I am going to this place.  Yeah! I’m going to be on the boat for a week or so, and there probably won’t be Internet there.  Or if there is, no bandwidth to speak of.  So once I get on the boat on Saturday, posts will be rare, and possibly nonexistent. So I’m taken care […]

Coverlike

June 5, 2014

So here’s a possible cover for my upcoming story “Video Star.”  I looked long and hard, but failed to come up with any stock art that came close to illustrating the story.  Short fiction doesn’t make enough money to justify commissioning a custom piece of art.  So I was left with a standard SF landscape […]

Conquering the World

June 4, 2014

I’m happy to report two foreign translations today!  My conquest of the world is assured! First up is the long novella “Elegia per Angeli e Cani,” which as “Elegy for Angels and Dogs” broke the record for longest piece of fiction ever published by Asimov’s.  Published by Delos Digital, the story is available only in electronic formats. […]

June 3, 2014

I’m getting damn tired of writing obituaries in this space. It’s bad enough when I write about the honored veterans of the field, like Fred Pohl, who died full of years and honors.  But it’s far more discouraging to write about someone talented and joyous and unforgettable who was taken before his time, before he […]

In the Post

June 3, 2014

So today I find my prose in the Huffington Post.  Not a political article, but a brief appreciation of a long-defunct TV show. Why?  It’s all in aid of promoting Dead Man’s Hand, the Weird West anthology edited by John Joseph Adams.  You’ll find a story of mine in there, but that’s not what I’m writing about. […]

Sleepless

June 2, 2014

I saw this, and now I’m so terrified I can’t sleep.  And when I do sleep, my slumbers will be troubled by nightmarish legions of identical roller-skating accordion-playing sub-debs singing the polka from hell! So I thought I’d better share this, because if I can’t sleep, neither should you.

Time for Wolf Time

May 29, 2014

My novelette “Wolf Time” is now available for download on Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and Smashwords.  And it’s a mere 99 cents!  What have you got to lose? There was a period of my career when my longer pieces were regularly spawning short fiction, and this is one of those stories.  When I finished Voice […]
