I regularly think about @paolobacigalupi’s #SciFi book The Water Knife which features a drought ridden Southwest where no one from Texas is allowed to cross north of a fence on the New Mexico border
I hope everyone enjoyed this week's free story, "Academic Displacement." If you did, there's a lot more to explore. Continue your speculative-fiction journey with "Shards," or chart your own course along The Nod/Wells Timelines.
I am having an absolute blast reading through @cstross's back catalogue.
Some I've read before, some new to me, but each is packed with insights into technology and society woven into an entertaining plot.
I am now starting "Wireless".

Started working on a new sci-fi OSE setting. Did a blog about it for folks that might be interested.

Science fiction in the 1930s -- i.e. when a 17-year-old fan could take over a magazine as editor.

Philip K. Dick
Most of his stuff is a little (or a lot) mind-bending....
Two thumbs up!
