Last night I had occasion to send an email to Spider Robinson, thanking him for his recent book Variable Star, a posthumous collaboration with Robert A. Heinlein.

Free content – particularly in the audio fiction space – suddenly seems a lot less of a perpetual free lunch than it did six months ago, and it’s got a lot of folks freaking out in my corner of the Internet.

I’ll start blogging again, with reports from SteamCon and some other interesting updates, later this week. [...]
I’ve been gone a while, and I’m afraid I’ll be gone another few days at least. Seems that I caught a really nasty flu at SteamCon that not only laid me flat for a week, but it has completely robbed me of my voice, thus rendering me unable to podcast. My voice is barely starting [...]
