A paladin, this guy ain’t. Also: I decided that in Westerns you should show people getting shot, instead of not showing them getting shot. Hey, I’m figuring this out as I go.

01/11/21 Snippet, THE FALL OF THE KINGDOM OF COAHUILA.
I think it’s a working title.

I would, given that Sea Lion Press is a publisher dedicated to alternate history. The article below is also interesting in its own right; there’s an interesting counterfactual there that’s not normally examined when it comes to the French Revolution. I don’t always agree with Sea Lion’s stuff, but it’s usually worth reading.
Final Pass-through for TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION is done.
Going to work on the conversion process this week. We are rapidly approaching the point where I will have to lock orders on the Backerkit pre-orders, so keep that in mind, folks. Gonna be weird when TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION is no longer a project…
Patreon Microfiction: All That The Market Has Borne.
With regard to ‘All That The Market Has Borne:’ look, it’s just market forces at work. You have a valuable product that can be produced by multiple sources, thus making it difficult for even a cartel to form; and the production values are both high and restrictive, so strip-mining the resource isn’t going to work. That pretty much means high wages for the specialist laborers who have the most critical role in the enterprise. Straightforward, really.
The second to last go-through on TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION.
After I finish checking the stories one more time, it’ll be time to collate them and get them into a KDF-compatible format. From there we go on to the print proof, and I’ll check it all again. And after that I’ll pull the trigger, order the books that need to be signed, and away we go. We’re still on track for this being done by the end of the month, or close to it.
In the meantime, the pre-order store for TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION remains open.

It’s @KarlKGallagher’s birthday. Buy his books.
That’s always the right answer for ‘What do you get an author?’ A sale, o my droogies. You get them a sale.
Anyway: if you haven’t gotten Karl Gallagher’s Storm Between the Stars yet first get that, then get its sequel Between Home and Ruin. Both SF, both space opera, I’m in the middle of the second one now. Buy his books! They’re good and it’s his birthday.
