More catching up on Codex 2024 reading, P.H. Lee's "The V*ampire" won't be for everyone but it has a lot to say about bullying and the harm as well as potential of online teen culture. Horror as allegory. Strongly recommended.

Sometimes we writers can be a little sensitive 😉

The ebook of #Dreck is finally available on #Kindle! Sorry for the delay, but the publisher didn't want to take any chances that the print version might get delayed, so they sent that out first. Now you have your pick!

I've done short #fiction collections, but today is my solo debut! #DRECK is a new #dreampunk #novella exploring the #tech of today through my own peculiar #PhilipKDick-esque lens. Thanks to #JeffNoon for the blurb!

Eternal Punishment

Stubborn rock, bound to
Sisyphus in immortal
Struggle, love's labor's lost.

I'm celebrating World Read Aloud Day by donating 3 school visits to #middleschools in #Sweden, #Wisconsin and #Illinois! I'll be reading from my book Friend Me and my not-at-all-unsettling robotic cat, FRED, will tag along.
