Short Promotional Post, Upcoming Posts, and a New Experiment

Nobody listened.

Just a few things to mention today:

  • My new progressive breaks album MOVE with Mark Musselman keeps slowly creeping up the charts. I don’t know if the album has legs or if it’s climbing the charts because my mom, some friends, and a few of you kind blog readers bought it, but it’s currently #11 on Beatport Breaks releases. If it breaks the Top 10 I promise I’ll shut up about permanently, at least on this blog, but if you’re an electronic music fan and you’re feeling the Momu vibe, I’d greatly appreciate if you could buy the album on Beatport. I think eventually Elon Musk will file a cease a desist, so grab it while you can (or maybe he’ll tweet-blast it because we’re amplifying his warnings about rogue AIs taking over the world).

  • A nice surprise on Twitter today — I learned that my story The Fo’dekai Artifact (originally published by Cosmic Roots and Eldritch Shores in 2017) was recently podcasted. You can listen to the full story on Youtube for free (which is great, as this story was previously behind a paywall). If you enjoy the story please follow Cosmic Roots and Eldritch Shores on Youtube and maybe subscribe to the zine.
  • After a few hiccups I was finally able to claim my author page on Goodreads. If you use Goodreads, please follow me over there (I currently have all of five followers). I turned “Ask the Author” to ON, so if you have any burning questions about my novel The Sky Woman or any of my short stories (including The Fo’dekai Artifact), please ask them on Goodreads and I’d be happy to answer.

OK — that’s everything I have to promote. Thank you for any links you may have clicked on!

What’s Holding Us Back, As a Species? (Part I – Fight for the Future)

People of planet Earth, unite.

Since the advent of the nation state in the 19th century, human beings have been collectively obsessed with comparing the relative merits of our sovereign entities. Who has the biggest navy and the fastest planes? Who has the most territory and natural resources? Who has the most modern, efficient infrastructure, the fastest broadband, and the best recycling program? Whose educational system produces the smartest workers? Who is the most free, the most happy, and the most innovative? And so on …

But what if we zoom out a few hundred miles and look at the big blue marble. How are we doing collectively, as an intelligent species/civilization?
