I wandered the library tonight and exited with Cory Doctorow's "Eastern Standard Tribe." I feel almost painfully out of it for not having read any of Doctorow's fiction (although I enjoy his findings at Boing Boing). Meanwhile, I'm finishing Robert Charles Wilson's Hugo Award-winning "Spin" and poring over every page -- and reading yet another critical analysis of Franz Kafka, with whom I often feel a special rapport.

I've made some extremely minor changes to my dot-com, hopefully to be followed by some more substantial revisions/additions/alternations. The Art Gallery has been upgraded a bit. And I like Justin's portrait so much I've made it the main graphic of my bio page.

"Eastern Standard Tibe" is hella good, I think you'll really dig it.

Spin and Accelerando were the absolute best scifi 2005 produced.

"Spin" (which I've not yet finished) is jaw-dropping. So far it's my favorite RCW novel -- and that's saying a lot. He's so much better than most of his contemporaries that even comparing him to them seems silly.

"Accelerando," here I come!
