Trying to make this a weekly thing. Each Wednesday, I’ll share 2 to 4 links, articles or blogs that I’ve been reading over the past few days, and talk about what else I’ve been reading.
Feel free to comment with what you’ve been feeding your thought machine with as well!

I’m still working my way through Mars as well as the forthcoming Club Contango.
Additionally, I’ve been enjoying the relaunch of the various X-Men comics. So far, I’ve particularly enjoyed the first issue of X-Force guest-starring Deadpool.
I haven’t gotten to Uncanny yet (I was out of town when it hit the shop) but I’ve been really looking forward to it.
That’s some of what I’ve been reading. In the meantime, I’ve also released a big chunk of my writing into the world – just yesterday, Serotonin Overload released. Ebooks are available from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, and more. Paperbacks are being sold on Amazon. All the links are right here:
