Well, I have been remiss. Again. I should probably stop apologizing for it. And I should certainly stop sounding surprised about it, as I think we are all coming to realize that I am remiss by nature.
Here is a link to my review column in the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. I have reviewing books there for just shy of two years now, with a special brief to focus on Hard SF. I truly enjoy this work. Actually, I can hardly call it work with a straight face. Large boxes of free books arrive on my doorstep on a regular basis. An amazing number of them are really good. And an amazing number of the really good ones are first novels, which are especially fun. I get to read and think and write about whichever ones I want. The hardest part of the job is deciding which two or three books I can actually give review space to out of the great multitude of books that deserve it.
Here's a list of what I've reviewed so far (and promise I'll try to be better about posting links to current columns in the future...):

So thats what you've been doing! Way back in 2008, you said "I'm in the middle of the first draft of GHOST SPIN" - any updates on that? There are people out there who are actually looking forward to this you know.

I recently read This Is Not A Game by Walter Jon Williams and really enjoyed it. Good to see his name out there more.
