Um ... let's just say that line did undergo a bit of revision from one draft to the next.

Same. Typing class in school in the late 80s/early 90s. Two spaces after a period was the rule.

Didn't that change because computers/word processors got smart enough to adjust spacing on their own? Or am I misremembering?

Thanks, Paul. And thanks for the signal-boost earlier today! Much appreciated.

Happy Bookday to @maryrobinettekowal.com and @sentencebender.bsky.social as well! Their double book Apprehension/Red Star Hustle is out today.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this book happen, including my agent Joshua, editor Navah, and my wife Jen, who came up with the title.

Thanks also to everyone who said nice things, like author @julieczerneda.bsky.social, who called it, "An instant classic and most highly recommended!"

This one has gotten a good amount of early buzz. People seem especially fond of Squidward, the cat on the cover.

The audio book will be available in mid-December.

I’ll be signing at Kazoo Books in Kalamazoo this Saturday at 1 p.m. and at Schuler Books in Okemos on Nov. 22 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.
