Viking Norway at reasonable prices!

I reviewed Prof. Torgrim Titlestad’s Viking Norway, last fall. I also reported that, as an imported book, it was extremely expensive to order.

I’m happy to report that they’re now offering the book on eBay, with the opening bid at $40.00. Not a bad price for a book of this size and quality.

And if bidding displeases you, they say they’ll soon be selling it at their website.

Yuki 7 and the Seductive Espionage

A book by artist Kevin Dart, focusing on a female espionage world, has an animated trailer to go with it. “A Kiss from Tokyo” is very much like Charlie’s Angels or James Bond without the James. It’s appealing work, though the subject matter could be improved. The book, Seductive Espionage, goes on sale next month.

Vote for the Million Writers Award

Plan your trip ahead of time!

I can’t seem to do a direct link, but if you go to my author’s site, and scroll down to “Latest Additions and Updates,” you can download a .pdf of the map that will appear at the beginning of West Oversea.

If you like e-books

I should probably be more embarrassed than I am to realize that all my books from Baen have been available as e-books from the git-go, and remain available here.

You have to pay for The Year of the Warrior and Blood and Judgment. Wolf Time you can get free.

Phil, can we make this a permanent link over on the right?



(Thanks to Ori Pomerantz for bringing this to my attention.)

I am Legend. Or Rumor anyway.

I apologize in advance for the lameosity of this post. My energy is still running low, and it’s bill-paying night (I should have mowed the lawn, too, but I opted to leave it hanging over my head until the weekend, because frankly I don’t give a Damocles), and I’ve got a string of e-mails from the publisher to respond to, regarding final details of the book design. Also they sent me the final page proofs for one last close reading, which will give me a hobby for the next few days. And I promised to post something for my Facebook group tonight.

About a minute ago, bright sunshine poured in through my window for about a minute. This was the first sun we’ve seen today. And probably the last.

It was a short summer, but you’ve got to be prepared for such things under a Democratic administration.

The Vice President warns us to avoid crowded places.

Soon Avoidants will be all that remains of humanity, the only survivors.

Unfortunately, we still won’t be able to reproduce.
