2022: the year of hee haw
Hello all. It’s been a quiet year, writing news wise, this year. I’ve been up to much, first holiday and first convention since the Covid stuff started, got Covid (mildly, I’m glad to say), got all eco-smug about electric cars, but when it comes to news to put in here, not so much. I have,…

2021: The year of the four emperors
Merry Christmas, one and all! I hope this December sees you fine and healthy after yet another year of pestilence and incompetently corrupt government. It’s that time of year where people recap their writing successes and I jump on the bandwagon with my meagre offerings and a bit of free fiction. But this year I…

Life in the big House
I’ve got a new story out, yay! This one is in an anthology, Titanic Terastructures that can be found here, that is a set of stories all in some way related to ginormous SF thingumies of a Ringworld stylee. I am very much looking forward to reading this and seeing what huge and wondrous…

I entirely understand if you have more important things on your mind. That said, there has been the odd nice thing this year. I got…

2015, the Year of the Long Wait
Merry seasonal whatnots. It’s been a quieter year in the writing way. One story on god management published back in May and a lot of writing. One of the points of note this year has been the nearlies. I always like to assume that if a story is considered for a long time before it…

2014, The Year Of Not So Much
It’s time for the end of year review thing, something that was most enjoyable to write last year. But pride comes before a fall, so it seems only right that after last year’s belter of a start to this publishing larkey things would drop off. I ended last year feeling like a proper writer. Stories…

A “gift” for Christmas
A very good reason why I should never be allowed on the internet is that it gives me stupid ideas. Even worse, ideas based on other people’s characters and so entirely unpublishable. Probably the worst for you is that this does not stop me from writing the things anyway and, by way of a Christmas…
