The day my book released, my Uncle Brian died suddenly. I really haven't been able to talk about it at all. I still don't know what to say. He was a beautiful soul. I loved him dearly. He wasn't sick or old, it was a workplace accident. It has made every effort to promote myself feel depraved.

I think there is a place for middle of the road stuff. Stuff that depicts genre tropes and abides the rules and satisfies expectations. But it's not on my shelf. If I don't sense the author yearning, I don't want it. I want to see blood on the page.

I watched Mickey-17 the other night & enjoyed it. It does already feel a little naive in its estimation of techno-fascism in the context of a few more years moving in that direction, but virtually all of these thought-experiment sci-fi tales end up feeling that way in retrospect. Still a fun watch.

Had a wonderful time at A VERY WITCHY READING, hosted by @csecooney.bsky.social and Carlos Hernandez. There are some pret-ty good stories out there, folks! ICYMI reading is preserved on the linked Twitch stream for a bit, and then there'll be a YouTube video posted. www.twitch.tv/csecooney
