Finally finished the 3rd variant (well, the 2nd, having read them out of order) of The Unteleported Man, so am getting back to my project of reading all PKDs novels in publication order by returning to Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sleep? (1968) in this Blade Runner tie-in edition

Blade Runner paperback cover of the 7th printing of the movie tie-in edition of Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? upon which the Harrison Ford vehicle was based. This edition (or at least this copy) has a variant green silhouette and different movie poster cover than the 1st pb printing, with more emphasis on tall buildings and no Rutger Hauer

If your taste runs a little more B-movie, I'll recommend Kim Newman's Video Dungeon as a supplemental reading. I'm close to the end of The Rouse by China Mieville and just picked up US release of Scratch Moss by David Barnett and a novella, The Nudge by Night Vale creator Joseph Fink

Now onto Stormbringer: The Elric Saga, Volume 2 by Michael Moorcock, and basically things are all over the place, something serious is clearly coming down the multiverse pipe for our hero, but he seems to be in it for the craic now. I'm finding listening to Black Blade by Blue Öyster Cult helpful.

There’s a LOT going on behind the scenes right now. I have three books scheduled for publication (two of which are written); another (written) one out on sub, with notes for a potential sequel; two more (unwritten) pitches at acquisitions with a publisher; and reissues of my first five novels.

Good morning (it's still morning, right?). I'm currently having a fun time reading "Murder on Sex Island" by Jo Firestone.

The cover of Murder on Sex Island A Luella Van Horn Mystery by Jo Firestone. There are stylised palm trees, birds, and a bright yellow sun on the cover, and beween the palm trees is a blue bathtub with a red arm resting on the side of it. There is a blurb from Stephen Colbert which reads "I'm so sad Sex Island isn't a real TV show, because I'd make a fantastic host."

I'm reading the Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, illustrated by Tove Jansson.

J.J.R Tolkien's The Hobbit Illustrated by Tove Jansson

The cover features a pink background, mountains in the distance with a dragon above it.

The foreground features a hobbit holding an axe and shield. The illustration is very similar in style to the Moomin.

The occult is a deep river. It flows below our obvious culture, sometimes surfacing to delight people who like a little understanding or think they can sell it to others. The truth is it flows regardless of those looking at it from the surface. It's an unstoppable current. – #DICallaghan
