Note In Passing

I've been deep in the new novel ever since January 1st; that and a couple of other things are why it's been quiet around here lately. But now that the buds are breaking in the neighbour's magnolia tree and the weather is occasionally springlike I've been outside a few times. There was a thing on AI and science fiction in Cambridge University, and an interview for the Economist magazine's TV channel (on the immersive set of the Secret Cinema's showing of Blade Runner), and right now I'm getting ready to head out to Eastercon, where amongst other things I'll be one of the authors reading from and signing my stuff at the Imagined Things Bookshop (3pm Saturday 31st, if you happen to be in Harrogate).

Meanwhile, I still have a novel to finish (it's a 100,000 word novel that's just passed the 100,000 word mark, with some way still to go). Maybe I'll put up a few bits from it here when I get to the second draft and things start to take on their final form. And maybe there'll be time to put up some other stuff too -- after the recent and ongoing Facebook privacy scandal, perhaps blogs might become fashionable again.

Thanks for the update! Looking forward to new material. Perhaps a short story or two?

Three new stories appearing in traditional print media over the next few months (see next post, probably). All written before headspace overstuffed with novel clutter.

Hey, Paul! I hope you are well.

I can't wait to read your new book. Do you have a working title yet?
