Pub Day! If you want to know how I’m doing, I just tried to refill my coffee by turning on the kitchen sink.

Horrible delays on the trains today - but it means I managed to finish a good draft of the story I am working on, and I have to say: I'm pretty pleased with this one. As you can see from the title: more hippos coming your way!🦛🙂

My daughter, who recently turned 18, gave a TED talk this morning about diversity in engineering, and I admit I did not keep it dry 🥹

OK, this is not a proper ranking, but just a little fun I had with the Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2016-2025. 2 pts for every featured story, 1 pt for every notable. 2025 weight = 1, decreasing to 2016 weight = 0.1 Full list (67 journals) available from my website.
