The mama loon surfaces and feeds her chick with a fish. And if you're patient, you can be there with a camera.

Brain-computer interfaces as a commercial product? That’s the scenario of my SF-thriller novel Augment Nation and now China is heavily into the technology, according to Wired magazine www.wired.com/story/china-... . #SFF

Loons are one of my favourite perks of living in Northern Ontario. Especially when the chicks arrive.

Bemused by the outpouring of Canadian pride recently? To be clear, we’re privileged to have a country that’s one of the best places in the world to live. That doesn't mean we think we’re better people than anyone else. Our pride is for our country and its shared values. An important distinction.

Thanks to Joseph Sullivan & Michaela Teschendorff Harden for the kind words in their reviews of my novels Augment Nation and Indigent Earth for the Australian science fiction magazine Aurealis. It's nice to have readers down under! aurealis.com.au/store/aureal...
