Projects and Positioning

May 2026

I am currently working on a new SF short story, which I will submit to my critique group this month.

I am also conducting R&D for a new novel project.

Positioning

I make no apologies for the following messages. They are important to me. If you don’t agree with them, that’s up to you. But if so, I really don’t think you’ll enjoy my fiction. In which case you might do better to move on.

I continue to say “F*ck Trump” and “F*ck Putin” and “F*ck “Netanyahu”. These are evil, duplicitous leaders. (And yes, I do hold Iran’s leaders in contempt too, as they have inflicted countless atrocities on their own people over the decades.) Pounding residential buildings and civil infrastructure into rubble, killing and maiming thousands of innocent people in the process, is never justifiable. Stop the slaughter, now!

The climate emergency is not a hoax. No, it isn’t being exaggerated either. Act now. Demand that your representatives act now. In my pre-writing working life, I was a professional scientist and technologist for many years, so I trust climate scientists in exactly the same way that I would trust a cancer specialist. You should too.

Vaccines are humanity’s single most important invention. That’s fact not fiction or fakery.

As for Elon Musk and his billionaire pals: words fail me.
