Hey, everybody. Surely you’ve heard, by now, that Disintegration will be published. Some of you have asked me directly: when?
That’s the question.
In making this update, I’m taking a break from writing but, once I send it, I’ll go right back to it, with Mastodon’s "The Hunter" as my musical motivation. There is still work to do. The story is complete but, as I’ve mentioned, I don’t want to deliver anything less than the best possible version of the manuscript. That doesn’t mean I’m going to procrastinate interminably; I understand that, every time I read the book, I could find something to change. I’m trying to avoid that trap and focus only on changing things that are errors in continuity, that bog down the narrative, that detract from the tale I mean to tell.
In other news, I finished reading
Trekonomics last night. If you haven’t ordered a copy of it, do it now. Manu Saadia did a great job, and the book provides examples of how we’re not far from the utopia depicted in
Star Trek. Disintegration may be dystopic, but I’m all for a future that never looks like the one I’m depicting. Read
Trekonomics and start thinking seriously about how we can make a bright future for all of humanity our reality.
