Bogus Shorts due oct 31 2018 (reprints, bonus materials + a few new shorts)

Novels are usually 100,000 wds: freebies vary. (and might be ANYTHING!)
If you don't fall over laughing at least once while reading these, the book is a failure.

Other than that, SF is the lit/philosophy of western urbanization.
Problem-solving
the effect of tech
on people
via new mythology.

Beware, you MAY learn something. Or think a bit here and there, even in the comics..

Cartooning? Does-is-ought. Take a does, show what is it is, discuss the ought. (ie: table= work-server= that gossips)

SF? what if, then what, so what?

Fantasy? Any sufficiently advanced tech is indistinguishable from magic.

Readers are welcome to proof-read; if I think it's a good correction, it goes in. (just send an e-mail, book-name + quoted line)
Thanks. (One long-suffering reader got a few books dedicated to him.)

On a personal note; I've got a million words published at smashwords.com now. SF + fantasy novels, cartoons + short-stories.

Jeez, lemme see; This whole mess got started in grade school; shorts in HS; novels after. (first one done in pencil.)

Dozen or so 80,000 word novelettes (mostly type-writer.); first computer stuff, 80's; novels+shorts.

Years of quarterlies,novels,cartoons subs; (apple-clones, compacts, pcs) '86: BBSing a shorts echo (rogue-bone), blogs, cartooning

I THINK I can add another million words there. Maybe. Most of them are lost unless some old CD backups turn up.

Oh, if you don't make the best-seller list with your first novel today, you don't get a second. An 8-million hit web-wonder is entry level committee stuff. I think my count is 15 published and a dozen or so lost.
