What's new, you ask?

I was interviewed by fellow speculative-fiction author J.D. Allen: www.facebook.com/share/p/19oV...

A re-release of "Mr. Perkins Goes to Hell" arrives Oct. 3. Pre-order: amazon.com/dp/B0FR56Y23B

A new episode of @postmortemreport.com will land before 🎃!

So... a lot! 🤪👍🪐📚💙🩸📚⚡️

The absolutely insane amount of electricity, and other difficult or impossible to replenish resources, that "AI" efforts consume on a daily basis is something that everyone should know. These techs are not free, and in most cases not worth what they take from the world IMO. 🤔

Last saw Rush in 2012 for the "Clockwork Angels" tour and that felt like a proper goodbye to me. Still, it is exciting to think of their songs being performed live again and I'm sure they will do them justice. Happy for those who never got to go before. 👍

Gaming Update: Still enjoying the new "Skate," "C.A.S.T.," and the "Alliances" expansion for "Talisman." So much good stuff out there if you're willing to look past or work around a few minor flaws. #gaming

A big thank you to everyone who's been picking up the new standalone edition of "Mr. Perkins Goes to Hell" since its release yesterday. It's so nice to see that story available in a way that's more friendly to new readers, and doing well out of the gate.

Yup. That one is absolutely disgusting. Got targeted by and called it out myself earlier this week. There's a particularly insidious "AI" driven variant that attempts to pose as organizers from legitimate book clubs hosted via meetup(dot)com. folks there are not happy about being impersonated. ☹️

Thanks, Daniel! Always nice to be included.

For all you readers: "Hostile Takeover" is just $0.99, or free to read with Kindle Unlimited! There's even an audio edition if you're in the US. Kick off spooky season in style with this tale of The Big Men! 🩸📚💙🙂👍 #spookyseason

Played a bunch of this over the weekend. I get that it's very different from what fans of the series may have preferred but, honestly, I had a lot of fun with it and didn't mind the F2P aspects or the cringy bits as they were so bad I found them funny. 🙂 #gaming

I don't distinguish between indie and trad as good books are good books, regardless of how they come to market, but recent "indie" reads I've enjoyed and seen on the feeds include:

Badlands @garykruseauthor.bsky.social
Death of a Clown @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social

@rodmannix.bsky.social does a lot to help bring attention to many authors and their works with these feeds. Definitely worth a look and a follow if you're interested in such things. #booksky 📚💙🙂👍
