Available for Order: Seeds of Change

The latest anthology edited by John Joseph Adams, Seeds of Change, is available for pre-order on Amazon now. The table of contents includes Ken Macleod, Tobias S. Buckell, Jay Lake, and many more fine writers. It also includes my story, “Arties Aren’t Stupid,” one of my personal favorites.

The origin for this story came from reading about mad gardeners in Britain creating living graffiti with blendered moss and spray bottles. I wondered what would happen if such people had in their hands something a bit more powerful than a blender, and the story spun off of that concept.

I hope you’ll order a copy, if not for me, than for those other fine writers. I’ve read the anthology, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Do you remember that Disney CG film Dinosaurs? It’s original concept involved a feature length movie with animals that only emoted, and never spoke. Having always been a big fan of computer animation, I was excited at the early rumors of the film. Unfortunately, Disney execs got involved and the result was the talky-travesty that [...]

I forget where I got this, but I think that it’s the level of quality I’d like to see in more book trailers online:
