New short story! “But with a Whisper” in Neon&Smoke
I have a new story out in Neon & Smoke! “But with a Whisper” is a 1,000-word sci-fi tale about the futuristic fog of war, about manipulation, about individuality… It’s written in pentameter, because the world needs more pentameter.

| This story collection is a great showcase of Tchaikovsky's range and talent. :) I've only ever known him from his sci-fi books, so it was fun to read his fantasy and slipstream, as well. As a writer myself, I particularly enjoyed the way he finished ...more | |

This book is a fun treat for any sci-fi fan, or for those who grew up watching old-timey TV shows about an all-American family stranded on an alien planet. :) The premise is simple: a boy, his teen sister, and their dad go missing. Five years later, t ...more |

| Such an amazing book. :) Highly recommended: a hilarious blend of Wall-E, Futurama, and Fallout. Lots of genuine laugh-out-loud moments, and a surprising amount of philosophy. | |
“Donna Woodka from Changing Places put it perfectly: “The Tao is simply logical. There’s no mysticism or need for invisible sky gods or some weird belief that you’re important enough to be reincarnated – you simply return to the Tao when you die.

“You even drilled a hole in it. You know that’s illegal, right? Defacing currency.”
“Well, you’re dating a serious badass,” Mark said. “Committing crimes in the name of love and all that.”

“Prove you’re one of us,” the pilot called. “What’s the password we’re using?”
A password was something the rebels might use to identify themselves out on the battlefield. It would make sense with everyone moving the same gear around. Zak tightened his grip on his pistol and decided.
