My SF story "The Adventures of Zeedae and Them Gol-durned Genset-D Boys" is now available (in digital form) in the Dragon Gems Winter 2024 anthology. Print release is tentatively scheduled for sometime next week. This story is pure silliness and buffoonery, with virtually no redeeming qualities; I hope you'll enjoy it.

My story "The Adventures of Zeedae and Them Gol-durned Genset-D Boys" will be appearing in the Winter 2024 edition of Dragon Gems, slated for release in late January. This is a deeply silly story which will probably cost you IQ points if you read it, but since many of you have intelligence above and beyond what you really need, here's a preview link:
