Today, a couple of quick items.

First, a sad topic: my brother-in-law, Professor James McBrearty of the University of Arizona, has passed away after a long illness. You were very good to my big sister, and for that I will always thank you. I find that words fail me, even though I’m a writer, except to say that Jim, you will be remembered. And missed.

Second, on a much lighter note, life does go on. And so, if you haven’t already done so, check out the many recent book releases on the New SFR pages. There’s a lot of great reading in there!
