Dear sir or madam I am not some crank

I'm the widow of the guy who ran some bank

I've got some money that I need to send

And if you'd help there'd be some to spend

Cause I want to be…Nigerian Scammer, Nigerian Scammer!

Gardner Dozois pointed out the impeccable good taste demonstrated above. Fifth Book From the Left. Yes, the Wind in the Willows is good too.

I have been getting a lot of inquiries lately that fall into similar groupings so I thought I'd answer and discuss them here.

How could you let them, etc.

For all of those of you who are newly upset (or still) about the changes in the Jumper movie and want to know how on earth I could possibly allow them to happen, please read or reread my essay on the topic originally pubbed in the Tor email newsletter and reposted here.  It is titled "Misconceptions" for good reason.

What about that movie sequel?

Dad came home drunk, furious I was reading and hadn’t mowed the lawn. Woke up in the library. Not going back.

Hitchhiking. Broke. Hungry. Truck driver offered me a meal and a ride. Seems nice. His name is Topper.

Truck driver was NOT nice. Rendezvoused with friends. Assault with sexual intent. Found myself in the library back home. Impossible.

The Library is locked up, doors chained. The pants they tried to get off were still ripped open. That’s three hundred miles away.

Tried the doors again,

Clayton Neuton, editor of SciFi Scanner over at amctv.com, did a phone interview with me last week and it appears today in his MASTERS OF THE SCIFI UNIVERSE column.  Hmm.  Let’s try that again.  MASTERS OF THE SCIFI UNIVERSE.  I could use bigger type.


I’m not sure what or who the “Masters” refers to, but the interview is here.

Mark Zug artwork for Bugs In the Arroyo by Steven Gould

Mark Zug artwork for Bugs In the Arroyo by Steven Gould


I have a new story up at Tor.Com.  Check out the incredible art by Mark Zug here and here!  Also, if you’re an audio sort of person, the recorded version I did has some guest voices by a very special person.


This story takes place in the same universe as my recent story in the May Analog.  That story shares the setting but this story is an actual section of my current book.

A piece by Simon Johnson (a professor at the M.I.T. Sloan School of Management and a former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund) and James Kwak (a student at Yale Law School) examining the lessons learned by the financial disasters in Asia in 1997:

The argument that A.I.G.'s traders are the people that we must depend on to save the United States economy is as weak and self-serving as it was in Thailand, Korea or Indonesia. A.I.G. is essentially advocating survival of the weakest. T
