The last post

This is just a quick note to say that this will be the last post on this blog.  I’ll be taking down the blog posts at the end of the year, or thereabouts.

Not to belabor the point, but I started this blog for one primary purpose: To attract customers to buy my books.  Put simply, it hasn’t worked.  I’ve not seen significant book sales from this blog since it was opened, not even on its best days or highest visitations.  As a promotional tool, this blog has been quite literally useless… nothing but an incredible time-sink and waste of effort.

To those (three of) you who will be sorry to lose my commentary on science and science fiction: c’est la vie.  My opinions were clearly not entertaining or edifying to enough of an audience.  And most importantly, those opinions weren’t being shared very far… and those who read them, whether they liked those opinions or not, were not swayed enough to buy my books.

So, I’m shutting it down, and will be applying my time to more personally satisfying activities.  Have a good 2016.  See ya.
