Wednesday Miscellaney: All Men Dream of Earthwomen

Tags

I read the novella, All Men Dream of Earthwomen, when it was first released as a freebie. Again, as part of a bookbinding project, and now a third time as it’s released as part of this book (Huzzah!).

It has not palled. If you like science fiction with real science in it, and the sensawunda dialed up to eleventy… AMDoEW is your book. The romantic story – romantic in the Prisoner of Zenda sense – of a clever heavy-worlder-Quasimodo and his weird alien love (alien, because human, like us), is full of swash and buckle and turns of wry humor.

Odd Monday

We have an extra frame today, a correction to Friday’s comic, and some announcements below.

Play ‘spot the difference’!

Service is going to be spotty over the next few weeks. We’ll try our best to hold to the Monday/Friday schedule. However, clown world events have overtaken us at last and we’re anticipating some job changes and house selling over the next three months. The house selling is a bit daunting because it’s amazing how much stuff one accumulates over 20 years.

That’s the bad. There is also some good; some really good. But we can’t announce anything yet. Delays, delays, delays. For valid reasons. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meanwhile, my health has greatly improved. I’ve lost pounds and inches (in girth, not height), and although my resting heart rate is still disturbingly high some tests tomorrow should clarify the issues. I’m sure they’ll want to add more stents, and I’m good with that. Cyborg arteries are going to be the new trend in fighting the coof. There’s two ways to get ’em: stents (the old-fashioned way) or via graphene coating (the clown world way).

I’ll leave it as an exercise for the reader how, precisely, they achieve the latter.

Family stuff came up. Really, really important family stuff. Plus it’s snowing and we’re going to try to get to Portland from Seattle tomorrow.

I guarantee the comic will be later this week, probably Wednesday. It’s disappointing to me, but we’ve been absolutely *SLAMMED* the past couple of weeks; but Monday’s comic (now Wednesday) and the New Years comic (hopefully by Sunday) are two of my favorites. Continue reading
