I’m trying to do a weekly email now. Sign up today!
Which would require me to have actual news every week, but that’s on me. In this case, this week’s entry actually does have some news about TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION: go here to read it, and here to sign up to the email list. It’s cool and fun! …No, really. We’re adults now and we can say what’s cool and fun.

Sorry for the redactions. This is what I was working on, today, but I kind of want it to be a bit of a surprise.
In the E-Mail: BETWEEN HOME AND RUIN.
I might have been able to score a copy of Karl Gallagher’s BETWEEN HOME AND RUIN (sequel to STORM BETWEEN THE STARS), because we’re Internet buds – but at three bucks it’s a steal anyway. This series is hard SF with human-sounding dialogue and the last one had a good plot; I’ll let you know how this one goes. But do pick up the first book, if you haven’t yet. It’s worth your time and attention.

Patreon Microfiction: Shambling Back From The Edge.
“Shambling Back From The Edge.” Hrm. I seem to like playing around with the idea of free-willed Undead. I dunno why.

12/31/20 Update, TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION.
Things are moving along!
- The main book is written. Currently it on its second editorial pass-through, with 8/10 stories. So far, it looks like whichever structural questions arose from the first pass-through have been addressed. We’re on a real good pace here.
- I have the artwork for the cover, and need to figure out how to turn it into an actual book cover. I expect to spend some money on that, but the budget can stretch to cover that.
- The unrelated REVISIONARY chapbook has been published, and signed copies are available for pre-order at the store.
- The second short story sampler is as follows: 6 stories total. 1 story, more or less ready for alpha reading; 3 stories, requiring fleshing out; and two stories, about halfway written. Two original, four previously on Patreon. 37K words currently. This is pretty much where I want to be to make deadlines with time to spare.
That’s largely it. Happy New Year!

Huzzah!
- Timmy and the Christmas Elf: this would be Timmy from Krampusnacht. I wonder what he’s been up to?
- The Elmerite Order, Part 4: Old Magic: Magic! Good God, Sir! What is it good for? …Ok, that’s not scanning at all.
