Progress at Entropy Central

I woke up to another cold day here at Entropy Central, lingering effects of a storm that blew through over the weekend. We don’t heat the house unless it becomes unbearably cold, and that isn’t often.

On the writing front, I finished the edits for the collaboration story and sent them off to my co-author, Ruth Nestvold, last night. I pick that up again once she is finished with her edits. Hopefully we can get this one into submission and then into print soon.

Meanwhile, I pick up another project. I don’t believe I have announced this yet, but if I did, chalk it up to being busy.

With all the changes going on in the publishing world, I decided to try an experiment. I will be turning my novel Neanderthal Swan Song into both an audio podcast and an electronic book. I will publish it independently under the entropy-central.net umbrella.

This is a novel I haven’t looked at much since 2007, and have only shopped around to a minimal number of agents. I have a few changes to make in the last third of the novel (based on knowledgable feedback on Japanese culture) so the release date is not yet determined. I’m hoping to post it by the end of April. The results of this experiment will influence how much more unpublished material I will post.

I also intend to create an electronic collection covering my first 10 years as a writer, something I put together a few years ago and never really pursued.

The concept for the novel has been very well received. It’s about a Neanderthal cloned from the remains of his original self, and his life in the modern world.
