Given the urgency, I’m sharing it now. I didn’t expect events to escalate this quickly. #SouthKorea #Democracy

Reposted since Bluesky has taken off.

Revision proceeds apace and The Butcher Bird will be available late spring if my current revision schedule is maintained.

Why not buy my other books while you wait? (link in header)
Update on writing - where I'm at and plans for new work.

TL:DR The Butcher Bird will be published in the first half of 2025.
