“A New Year” Double Edition Releases Wednesday

A New Year

Hey all, My latest magical re-release comes out in two days – A New Year: Special Double Edition. This one is special – it’s actually two versions of the same story. From the foreword: “A New Year” has a bit of a history. When I first wrote it, it was intended for an anthology to be out by Dreamspinner. It tells the life-long love story of Hank and Dale. After sending it in, I re-read the prompt and realized it called for stories set outside the USA. I had set the entire tale in Northern California, with most of it … Read more

Point of View: This Has All Happened Before

Q*ink!

Hey all, I was wandering down memory lane earlier this week when I remembered something that I wanted to share with y’all. One of the things Mark and I do is to build directories and communities – Queer Sci Fi, QueeRomance Ink, and a number of others that bring together various parts of the LGBTIQA community. For today’s column, I thought I’d take you back a couple decades, to the beginning of the world wide web, when America Online ruled the Earth. Yes, there was actually a time when the web didn’t exist. It was a strange era, when you … Read more

POINT OF VIEW: How Would a Civilization Evolve If…

Last week I shared insights from a great author panel at WorldCon76 in San Jose. This week I thought I’d share another. The full title of this one was “How Would a Civilization Evolve If…: How Human and Nonhuman Concepts of ‘Universe’ Is [sic] Shaped By Their Environment.” It was a fascinating chat between an astronomer, a biologist, and a — for lack of a better term – historian/philosopher. It reminded me of nothing so much as those classic sci fi  tales where aliens arrive on earth and a team of varied scientific disciplines (and one guy out of left … Read more
