New visitors: welcome to my website. Feel free to look around, follow links, ask questions.
Returning visitors: you’ll notice that there hasn’t been a great deal of activity around the site recently. (But thank you for coming back to check anyway.)
The good news — for those who’ve sent messages asking when the follow-up* to Advent will appear — is that my extreme inactivity here is the result of fairly intense activity elsewhere. Since Advent was published I’ve been working on fixing the second book* to the exclusion of all other kinds of writing, including random online squibs. It’ll be thoroughly fixed over the next three months, in time for me to emerge stumbling (and, perhaps, blogging) into the glare of an Olympic summer.
Publication will be in the summer of 2013.
Your patience is appreciated.
(* Note avoidance of the word “sequel,” which I don’t think quite describes the relation between Advent and the story that’s falling into its final shape now. Sequels are really the same thing again, aren’t they? — the timescale and events may be subsequent to the first book/film/whatever, but basically they exist to repeat what’s already been achieved. The case of Advent won’t work like that. Presumably you can’t have advents twice, anyway. There has to be an arrival after a coming.)
