Looks like I’ll be going to Worldcon this year! Life is good…
um… I posted this to the wrong blog, sorry about that. The post was meant for my SFFreader blog. But it’s true, and life is certainly good. There’s a great chance that both Jesse and I will be there. We’re looking forward to meeting in person many of the excellent people we’ve met online.

It’s been a while since we mentioned Infinivox. Since they produce one of my favorite lines of audiobooks, I’ll take this new release as a chance to talk about them. Infinivox publishes excellent unabridged short science fiction on CD. The story selection and quality of the productions leaves me eager for their next release every time.
This new release is a story called “A Dry, Quiet War” by Tony Daniel. In addition to that, check out Infinivox’s author line-up: Charles Stross, Connie Willis, Stephen Baxter, Greg Egan, George Alec Effinger, Nancy Kress – and that’s just naming a few! Infinivox has great stories, they are very well produced, and are priced just right. You simply can’t go wrong here. Check them out!
