Catching up

Published by Alastair under Uncategorized

It has been way too long since I’ve posted here. I have several projects on the go at the moment (some will show up here as separate pages), plus the usual chaos of trying to get things done before the holiday season and year end.

And of course, the new year. Dean Wesley Smith, a very successful author, has been putting up a great series on his blog about setting and working toward goals, starting with this one, which has motivated me to push more consistently on my fiction writing — and also to be more consistent about updates here. Author J. A. Konrath has been making similar points this month over on his website.

Okay, I get the hint.

    The Chara Talisman, the first full novel of T-Space, is now available in e-book and trade paperback from Amazon and some of the other usual places, with more coming. What if Indiana Jones had had a starship?

     

    The October 2011 issue of Analog features both my story "The Sock Problem" as the Probability Zero piece, and Brad Torgersen's "The Bullfrog Radio Astronomy Project".
