I have no opinion on the controversy currently sweeping the genre.
I've lived in Tennessee for just over two weeks. I love it here. It's the best move we've ever made.

I just want to reiterate this. Because it’s absolutely happening.
The AI dystopia won't be gun toting drones or algorithmically selected bombing runs. It'll be when the pyramid scheme of investment and funding that's propping up AI collapses, and the economy along with it.

Finished The Sword Unbound by Gareth Hanrahan last night. Man, I feel bad for whatever book I read next. (Not really, since it’s Swan’s Tyranny of Faith)

Thirty-three (and a half!) years ago, this fountain witnessed the first moments of our relationship. We had to come by one last time before we moved to wish it well!

I'm pleased to announce that Baen has formally reverted the rights to Wraithbound. This means I'm free to start producing books two and three (once I write them, ahem). There are good things in the works, my friends. Good things indeed!

Given the thematic similarity between my next project and Isles of Emberdark, I'm curious to see how it does. Will the Sander Sons and Dottirs follow him into that kind of setting?

We're renting a place this week, and it happens to have Netflix. So the wife and I finally watched the first few episodes of The Witcher last night.
That's a pretty good show.
