It’s not here yet, because my web designer is over in London having Christmas with her family (her son married an Australian living in London–they got married in Denmark and are now living in London.)\u00a0\u00a0 And she’s retiring in March (this is Not Fair: she’s younger than I am and I’m not retiring yet!!)\u00a0\u00a0 But there will be a new website and blog specifically for the SF side of my writing.\u00a0\u00a0 You are the first outside the business to know (my Editor thought this was a great idea, as some of my SF fans are adamant about not sticking a toe into the Fantasy area, lest they be sucked into the swamp)\u00a0 but never fear–if you’d rather hang out here,\u00a0 I plan to mirror some of the content there over here (possibly not some of the straight science links I’m planning to include–your opinion on that is welcome.)\u00a0\u00a0 And this area will not go away. \u00a0 There will be more short fiction coming out if things go as planned, and perhaps more long stuff later.<\/p>\n
That\u00a0 blog will be called “Universes” and, like this one, embedded in its site.\u00a0 In this case, that site will be encapsulated in my main site, thanks to the ingenuity and cooperation of the site host and my web designer.\u00a0 The Vatta books will be one “universe.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We expect to have it up early in January–parts are already done, like the design which coordinates with my main site but is sufficiently different (in my opinion.)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It has to be done by March, of course.\u00a0\u00a0 I have some other stuff to photograph and write before it can be shown to the world.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 When it goes live I’ll announce it here.\u00a0\u00a0 Please stop by for the opening celebration.\u00a0\u00a0 You just might find out what a Lassaferan snailfish is, or the real story behind the Vatta dynasty and its arrival on Slotter Key.<\/p>\n
