Look out for this one. I'll have a weird story playing with time in structure and perspective, but there's a generation space ship and an engineer trying to save it after its hull is breached. Can't wait!

We don’t talk enough about a positive aspect of diversity. My life is immeasurably better today because of the people I’ve known who are not like me. Diversity in America, for me, means a more colorful, more beautiful world.

The trouble is we’ve seen disparities grow in recent years when they weren’t supported or corrected by government or policy. Trends don’t divert themselves if we just wish them to. Breaking the status quo requires intervention.

This week is for finishing off the holds/older pieces in the queue and answering our backlog of emails.
Excelsior!
Artistry is one of humanity's defining traits. Our creative ingenuity makes us special.
So I find it strange that, with the emergence of AI, we're not using it to make our lives better but to automate creativity.
I won't be watching Secret Invasion.

Very cool to get the new book of a mentor along with the new book of a friend in the same delivery. @taniajam

My thoughts on @jccronin's The Ferryman. Bottom line: highly recommended for readers who like their expectations challenged by satisfying stories set in wondrous, uncanny worlds. Deeply moving and intellectually engaging. I loved it.
