Thanks so much, sorry just seeing this now for some reason. I have the book, partially because of your comments, I'm stoked to dig in, and may publish some of her work, so I appreciate the message and the article. Peace, Richard

Thanks for the friend reguest!

Happy reading!

Hey Richard,

I noticed that you recently put Battleborn by Claire Vaye Watkins on your "to read" shelf.

I thought you might be interested to see a recent post of mine about Watkins' very good short story "Wasteland, Wasteland, Wasteland," one of three stories commissioned by the BBC for their Future Anatomies series in March and broadcast on their show The Strand.

The post includes a link to the episode of The Strand that features a reading of the story, so you can listen to it online, as well as contextual material on deep time, including an online excerpt from Gregory Benford's excellent non-fiction book "Deep Time."

The post is on my Homo Artificialis page, which deals with the science and culture of artificial humanity (the science being real, the culture sometimes involving fiction, as in this case), one of three topical blogs that relate to my novel Luck and Death at the Edge of the World.

If you're interested you can find the post here: http://homoartificialis.wordpress.com...

Hey Richard, it's funny I thought we were already friends on here, I guess were just using too many social networking sites haha

Hi! Thanks for recommendation for Noir at the Bar! Though it seems not exactly my kind of book, it sounds interesting and supports a good cause! Best wishes! LET THE WONDERFUL NOISE OF THE SEA ALWAYS SOUNDS IN YOUR EARS! (a greeting of the water dragons' hunters - my Tale Of The Rock Pieces).

Mary Anita And The Second Liberation In Kenya Consider reading this book for dramatic entertainment full of African passion and flavour, culture, social life and politics.

HA. Thanks, John! Appreciate the support, hope you dig it.

You had me at "bad-ass". Just downloaded Victimized. This ought to be a fun weekend.

Hi! Thank you for accepting my request! I'll be glad to exchange a lot of opinions, recommendations, tips, etc in the future! Best wishes! Let the wonderful noise of the sea always sounds in your ears! (a greeting of my water dragons' hunters - my 1st Tale Of the Rock Pieces).

FWIW I hated Pygmy.

I have the same view, mate, but I must've overestimated your ability to be disappointed. (Removes a gold star from your snobbery card.)

I'm starting with the ones I love. If I have time, I'll add in the ones I don't. I figure, life is short, why waste time on books you don't love?

Look at all this five-star love! Where are the books you don't like?

ha...thanks valerie, and my book isn't even out yet...had a couple things that were up here already - sideshow fables and the vampire anthology - very cool

Ha. Thanks. I've been putting this off, but thought it was about time.

Welcome to Goodreads, where the true playas hang! Er, no. Mostly we just geek out over books.
