It’s that time of the year again! Halloween is around the corner, and if you haven’t gotten my Halloween Soundscape album, it’s available from iTunes, Amazon, and other online stores. Eerie ambient music inspired by classic stories. You can read the liner notes over on my Gymshoes Music site. Besides unsettling trick-or-treaters, it’s nice dark music to accompany your scary Halloween reading this month. Enjoy!
Yesterday I took the day off. I figured that a solar eclipse was a legit reason for a science fiction writer to skip out on writing.

(If we went back to the moon, I wouldn’t just take the day off, I’d throw a party!) Today I’m back at work on the book!

Wow! You can download pdf/epub or use their online book reader. I love classic SF and I’m just delighted to have these magazines to browse and download!

Still, wonderful art comes right into your hand instaneously and it’s a lovely surprise to see what you get.

Yesterday I got up early, did a lot of writing. Creativity spilling onto my tea mug…
