Exploring the NYT SF/F Column at Omni

The Amazon book blog asked if I'd write a short piece about my NYT Book Review column on SF and fantasy, so I did: "This is work for a jeweler or a miniaturist, because it's difficult to convey summary and analysis in such a short space. For this reason, I spend many hours just crafting the approach and tailoring the sentences so there's plenty of specific detail and the proper level of context."

Also, a nice shout-out for The Steampunk Bible over at the B&N Review, and a great review at Bleeding Cool.

Not related, but still interesting: Some thoughts on a crappy story from David Moles.

And finally, jerks can write good fiction? Say it ain't so!
