I immediately have issues with counting and what I would say tomorrow not matching entirely what I would say today and the distinction between formative and impressive and my sieve of a memory (I'm on my third adult brain chemistry…) so I do not get to a hundred. I get to some. "The Waking of Angantyr" (Elder Edda, author unknown) Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Idylls of the King C.J. Cherryh,…
Only The March North has made it through the queue so far, but the rest will presumably be found along with it at https://www.kobo.com/ca/en/search?query=graydon+saunders&fclanguages=en in a day or two. (Kobo's interface has been much improved.) ETA Kobo is the ONLY place my books are currently available, between certain regrettable policy changes and not wanting a corporate to stuff the text into…
So someone I know is putting names in a hat for a shawl in the hope of rewarding civilised conduct. It's wool, which means I am best off admiring it from a distance. One of you might want to admire it from much less distance, and already be conducting yourself in a civilised fashion, making the whole thing very straightforward. comments
I don't know anything about the specifics and good on Draft2Digital (who I use to distribute everywhere you can legitimately find my books that isn't Google Play) for covering the gap, but a little bit of annecdata. The way I convert a manuscript (a big text file with some plain-text markup in it) to EPUB produces EPUB3. It's been doing that since 2014. (EPUB3 is readily validated, which is…

Cha Till Maccruimein Departure of the 4th Camerons The pipes in the streets were playing bravely, The marching lads went by With merry hearts and voices singing My friends marched out to die; But I was hearing a lonely pibroch Out of an older war, “Farewell, farewell, farewell, MacCrimmon, MacCrimmon comes no more.” And every lad in his heart was dreaming Of honour and wealth to come, And honour…
In a specific narrow radius, all is well with the world. comments

So Ontario has an election in a fortnight. The choices are: - to continue a Liberal government that has had some good ideas (getting rid of coal! reasonable educational standards) but has been severely flailing and doing insane things that might not even be corrupt. Selling off the public utility corporation is probably corrupt somewhere but it looks like it's got some sort of perceived…
Google Play Kobo iTunes Scribd Amazon Amazon will be along whenever the backend gubbins interface; I can't do a pre-order on Amazon via draft2digital, so I had to push the button this morning. Hopefully this shall not be too long. Updated 2018-04-05 That was longer than expected, but it's up on Amazon. comments
I've committed book again. It's up for pre-order on Google Play Books; it will be available via Draft2Digital's various channels, but I want to give the quality reviewer folks a chance to send me typos before I start that (slower and less predictable) upload process. This isn't a Commonweal story. This is something Past Me wrote, and refered to as The Doorstop. It's been said that everyone of a…
Since I have the design sense of some miscellaneous nematode, that means I need to find a cover designer. (The person who did the covers for the first three Commonweal books is undergoing an increase in their prosperity and departing the trade, which is good, but not presently convenient.) Anyone got anyone they can suggest? comments

Which is not precisely news, since it's been up on Google for a couple of months now, but can be had via Google Play Books and Kobo now. I am most pleased that the book-processing gnomes at Kobo figured out how to handle the thing. comments
If you had told me when I was twenty I would be living in a failed petro-state at my present age, I would have snickered. comments
