I’m about 6 pages from the end of the reread/edit or my current sci-fi novel. Codenamed P.E.. it’s now 72.5k words and it’s 2/3 complete. It really is the best thing I’ve written, I believe. I hope you feel the same way when you get a chance to see it. Thinking of trying to put this one out with a special edition via kickstarter. Any of you like to get special editions?

Draft 1 of Bloodstone is complete. It's clocked in at 13,120 words. I don't think I can share without spoilers. I've written 2600 words today. That and I've worked on the formatting of an anthology. I'm going to start prepping the stickers for my online store if I can work out how to have a minimum order value.

Ah the joy of non-rating season. What show are you hanging out for more of?

I'd like a second season of Firefly.

Ho ho... oh hell!
Is that sleigh bells ringing in your ears or a few rounds from an M60?
You wanted the jolly fat man to bring Yuletide joy, but the season has gifted you with a heart breaker and a life taker — Badass Santa.
Grab your eggnog and camouflage candy canes, strap on your bulletproof holiday stockings, and prepare for thrills and kills.
From blood-stained rebellion at the north pole to a black ops raid on a distant planet, these eighteen action-packed tales will show you Saint Nick as you've never seen him before.
It's all you'll want for Christmas.

Aussie readers: you can buy autographed print copies direct from me.
