Dear Everybody, I have for many years joked that work as a freelancer consists of throwing forty loaves out into the water and hoping that one of them will come back. The same seems to apply to small-press publishing. You have to make a zillion efforts in hopes that one of them pays off. For […]

Edward M. Lerner’s latest novel, InterstellarNet: Enigma has just won the Inaugural Canopus Award for Excellence in Interstellar Writing. The award is given by the 100 Year Star Ship (100YSS) organization “to works that contribute to the excitement, knowledge, and understanding of interstellar space exploration and travel.” Congratulations to Ed.

I am sticking a metaphorical toe into the figurative waters of trying a policy of using additional vendors. No actual toes or vendors were harmed in the writing of this posting. ANYway. FoxAcre […]

For somewhat dull contractual reasons, FoxAcre Press was not able to offer a free download of this particular edition of Championship B’tok — until now!
