It is sad just how easy it is to neglect a site. I have done very little blogging anywhere for most of the last year. I moved to Kansas, nearly a year ago, and writing has been mostly taking a backseat to the other parts of my life. I have been continuing to make final edits on The Apprentice and I have added a fair number of new pages to my first draft of Journeyman, but outside of that, there hasn’t been much time to write. I haven’t written any short fiction at all this year.
So today I’ve finally done some long overdue clean-up on the site. I refined the story descriptions on the Zdrell trilogy page. I also posted a preview teaser from the book. Finally, I put together a writing samples page that links to the teaser, as well as a full version of Diving Interdiction, a story I wrote specifically for Analog, but that Stan didn’t like well enough to publish. I still think it’s an excellent story, though I doubt any existing publication would touch it, too politically incorrect in the wrong directions.
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to all!
