Fiction For Now
After four years of purely digital publishing, I’m taking the plunge into print. Hundreds of blog posts compare the two dominant print-on-demand (POD) services, Amazon's KDP Print and IngramSpark (IS), so I won’t attempt to recreate any arguments here. Suffice to say that I chose IS because of its greater exposure. Libraries and bookstores, unlikely to... Continue Reading →

Short airplane flights are a mixed blessing. On one hand, I only have to endure an hour or two of having my kneecaps crushed (civilization is just not built for tall people).
