A fox followed me to work last night. A young’un, trotting a constant six foot behind me. I kept stopping and he’d stop. But he wouldn’t run. He would just look at me, a nervous look in his eyes but never budging an inch. When I would start walking again he’d start too. Never known […]
Read more "The Fox"That’s the title of an article I’ve just put up on Medium, where all the groovy kids are these days. It originally appeared in Clarion’s e-mail bulletin thingy. Go on: get over there fast as a tiger on vaseline…
Read more "What Bowie Can Teach Us About Writing SF"So, er, I haven’t shown my face around here for some time.

Read more "Rome, 12AD"This is one guy’s opinion. One guy’s opinion based on looking at the trailers.

Read more "Okay Here’s My MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA theory/prediction"And here’s a preliminary proto-poster type thing. Lovely, innit?
