In case anyone missed it over the weekend...

By popular request (hi Paul), a short story, The Boy In The Bubble, is now up on Avevale here.

And here's a sneak peek at what I'm writing right now:

“It’s a flute,” said Verneen Halannim blankly, turning the thing over in her hands.

“Happy birthday, darling,” said her mother.

“Wear it in good health,” said her father.

“Mother, Father,” Verneen said, “thank you, very much, but I have a question.”

Professor Elek Halannim and her husband looked at her inquiringly.

“Over the past nine birthdays,” Verneen said, “you have given me, among many other nice things, a flute, two guitars, a trombone, three drums, a piano accordion and a set of six air horns mounted on a rack. Is it possible that you’re grooming me for a glittering career as a one man band?”

Her parents smiled at her.

“Enjoy the flute, darling,” her father said.


New episodes will be up this weekend. This will appear when it's finished.
