Human person, father and sci-fi geek. I write stuff. Want to be a Ravenclaw but get told I'm a Slytherin.

#StrangerThings what a privilege to get to share in such a spectacular, wonderful journey. Well done to everyone involved.

Remember that scene in CS Lewis's the Magician's Nephew, a book written for kids ages 8-12, where Queen Jadis is taking Digory and Polly through the ruins of Charn, her former kingdom and they see all her courtiers turned to stone?

They ask the White Witch why she killed all those people and she replies "they had rebellious thoughts." That, alone, was sufficient to convey to a pre-teen reader that she was the villain, because of course people should not be murdered for thinking the wrong thoughts. No additional description was required to reveal her to be a force of evil and darkness. The child reader was expected to know and did know that she was the bad guy.

You see: back in 1955, eight-year-olds knew that murdering people for thinking thoughts you do not like was evil.

And that is most of my take on the Charlie Kirk murder.

A young man has been murdered. He was committed to talking to people who disagreed with him and had a wife and two children. I do not hold many of his beliefs but do agree that only dialogue can bring us together. If you celebrate his death, you are vile. #CharlieKirkRIP

A horribly sad day. The great nation that once stood with the oppressed backed the oppressor and bullied a fearless and brave wartime president fighting for the future of his country. Craven and cowardly. #StandWithUkraine #StandWithZelensky

@yoni_mitchel @AirFriedRosie The individual posting this, at this time, deliberately cropping out the date and details of what it was about is trying to create a false impression of what was said and when it was said.

Another exciting Tomorrows book is available now, featuring scary shenanigans on a school in space. It has a beautiful cover by @ShannonStamey. https://t.co/Ly8RDRs6yM

Goodbye Ollie, the greatest dog in the world. You gave me far more than I could ever give you. A piece of my heart went with you today. RIP.

@JamesMGeary Is it worth getting some beta readers to look at it? Maybe they could help you highlight some things to start with.
