Updates on blogging, SF book

By thescian on May 17, 2010.

I feel obliged to inform you of the reason for the paucity of posts on this blog. I have been busy for the past six months on a startup (software) which has swallowed all my spare time like a blackhole eating light. The gravitational well I have fallen seems to be too deep to send any signals except the occasional random tunnelling like this post. I expect another half a year to go before I can get any down time. But, being a incurable optimist, I hope to manage the juggling in the coming weeks.

Some book news. Work on TheScian SF book is due to finish this week for US and European publication (via Amazon CreateSpace). Getting the book printed in India is proving to be challenging as expected. So, publication in India will be after we get the CreateSpace setup done.

I'm just finishing four weeks of vacation, a nice break from the regular routine. No, I don't get the whole summer off because I work at a university. I do get four weeks of vacation every year and when you work at a university it just makes sense to take it all in the summer. Anyways, we didn't…
