A couple of updates are due here on the blog. First, my short story Singapore Wept was published in Zetetic: A Record of Unusual Inquiry.

What I’m Reading, What I’m Writing
What I’m Reading Darknet – Matthew Mather I ordered this on my Kindle about a week ago and I’m still reading it.

We read some stories, talked a little about the craft, and spent some time practicing the techniques we had discussed. At the end, we took everything we learned and cranked out aContinue reading “Weekend Writing”

This is important for science-fiction fans because the online magazine is free, which means you now have 11 new stories and articles to read. I’m happy about it because my short story “Bug Out” is one of those new stories. TheyContinue reading ““Bug Out” Published”
