Lectured on the Cold War yesterday, to my History 2 class. Even weirder than speaking about what I remembered (boy, did that picture of Nikita Kruschev bring back memories!) was the realization that NOT ONE SINGLE ONE OF THEM had been alive during the Cold War. The Berlin Wall came down in 1991. That was 25 years ago. There are days when I actually do feel like a time traveler.
HOWEVER, I have finally finished - and had appropriately formatted (I hope!) TWO NEW FURTHER ADVENTURE TALES. (And about damn time!).
Antryg & Joanna - "...And Pretty Maids All in a Row." An LA drug-dealer seeks out a wizard for advice with his love-life, and Antryg is pretty sure that there's more going on than meets the eye.
Winterlands (John & Jenny) - "Damselblossom." A visiting wizard arrives at the Hold with a warning of the imminent arrival of a horrendous monster from the sea, and John and Jenny are much less upset about the news than the Silver Mage thinks they should be.
Additionally, I finally made the time (and time is at a premium around here due to months of illness which put me way behind in all my work) to do a little thumbnail sketch of Antryg and Joanna for the cover of Pretty Maids, thus proving conclusively that yes, I would cast Tom Baker as Antryg. I hope eventually to do illos for the covers of most of the Further Adventures, but that will take time.
I will get these posted, I hope, by the end of the week, on both Smashwords and Amazon Kindle Direct, at $4.99 apiece.
