I have been working on book three since the summer of last year. I have finished (and first-time corrected) chapters one and two. Upon completion of TROTI, I took (a much needed) seven-month hiatus from writing. I used the time to recover a bit and to map-out the new book in my head. More difficult… Continue reading Book Three

The third edition of The Robots of the Interregnum is now available for download. This edition incorporates a list of 188 corrections sent to me by John E. Wulff. It was a lot of effort on his part, and I thank him profoundly for all the work he put into it. I did not use… Continue reading Third Edition

The second edition of The Robots of the Interregnum is now available for download. This edition corrects some of my minor typographical errors from the first edition. Sincere thanks to Attila Torkos for his eagle-eyed editorial expertise.

I have opened a book review page for anyone who wishes to review the books. Just click on Book Reviews at the top of the page. All book reviews (including negative and caustic ones) will be approved as long as a civil tone is maintained.  This is not Twitter!

I’ve now completed corrections for chapters 1-10 of The Robots of the Interregnum. Tomorrow I will begin the final phase of work on the book: corrections on chapters 11-15 plus the epilogue; merging of my Word files into a single book with linkable chapter titles; conversion to Epub and Mobi Zip files; upload tests; and… Continue reading Homestretch

I have finished the final corrections on the first third of The Robots of the Interregnum. It actually went quicker than I had anticipated. The second third will be a little slower because I need to write four EG blurbs from scratch; but even so, I’ve found myself pleasantly surprised about my rate of progress.… Continue reading Progress Report

I’ve now completed the first draft of The Robots of the Interregnum. After a brief respite (Mallorca) I will begin work on the final version of the book. This will consist of rewriting each chapter, and then going over them a final time to root out syntax, grammar, and spelling errors. I hope that what… Continue reading First Draft
