Beep Boop Beep: Error Report – Or “Spotify, Findaway Voices, AI Audiobooks, and the Problem of it All”
Firstly, what a wild ride it has been from the Hugos cocking up yet again because gotta love bullsh#ttery.

Did Multiverse, and did an FB Live book discussion about my new book, The Glassman, on a digital book club (I think it's on "Public", I get a phone call at the end that made me stare at the camera a little wacky because I didn't know if my video & audio will derp -... Continue Reading →
