Welcome to Astrolabe!
Astrolabe is my irregular newsletter covering all the stuff I love—from science fiction and fantasy to retro gaming and personal news about my work.
“What’ll I get?”
Astrolabe is the place to get the latest updates about my work, and also a bunch of regular columns covering SFF:
Out & About is where I highlight my work around the web—some recent and some old favourites.
LTTP stands for “Late to the Party” and is a regular column where I let Twitter decide on a retro game, then I play it for an hour and give my impressions. Do your worst, Twitter!
Recommended Reads gathers together my favourite books and explains why you need to read them. Now!
Quest Markers is a collection of the coolest stuff I’ve read around the web lately.
You’ll also get a bunch of other goodies, like story and book excerpts, interviews, essays, reviews, etc.
