A response to the “Women Against Feminism” thing currently creating waves all over social media.
I've had this post percolating for a few weeks, but a few things have distracted me from writing it, but finally, here it is.

Cultural Moments
We have friends who hail from a variety of countries around the world. More and more I've been struck by the differences in our cultures, despite sharing the same first language - English.

There's a bit in the Bible I rather like, which says 'let your yes be yes, and your no be no' - it's in a bit where Jesus is talking about oaths - or 'swearing by something.' I like it, because it is about … Continue reading Ethics and the Internet

Today I finished the bulk of my first draft of my third book. What I mean by 'the bulk' is that I finished the meat of the story. I still have a couple of things to write, some loose ends to wrap up, and I'm still pondering whether I want to completely close the door … Continue reading When You Finish Your First Draft (And How Being Too Close To Your Own Work Can Be A Problem)
