I sometimes wind up in arguments with Creationists. I don’t go looking for them. But I am enough of a Besserwisser that when somebody’s wrong on the internet, I can’t always just walk past. What they often end up talking about is either irreducible...

As I write this, I have an undiagnosed upper respiratory infection and the cough that goes with it. Because of COVID-19 and *waves vaguely at the world* I’ve been isolating myself for just over a week now. We’ve had our lunches delivered, being careful to...

I’ve been writing seriously for almost 11 years. In that time I’ve written 4 novels, or more like 10 if you count all the revisions Cold Burn Goodbye has gone through. I’ve also written dozens of short stories. Or a dozen or so if you discount the...
