Another nice review of the new book! I loved that she enjoyed The Height of Artifice, my most recent story in the collection: "...a man addresses his younger life in theatrical circles, and ponders why why the woman he loved never loved him back. Delightfully sad. And kind of funny at the end."

Slide showing the cover art of The Gates of Polished Horn by Mark A. Rayner and a review:
Sad. Amusing. Uplifting.
"To sum up, when Mark A. Rayner is good, he's very, very good. I'd definitely read something else by him." Terry Tyler, author of The Devil You Know

He heard a wee spider say, 'Hi.'
But shaken, he shot

I have strong suspicion Aiden may have used A.I. to complete his homework." The parent asks, "What makes you think that?" Behind them, examples of work by students is displayed. Aiden's `hand' has about ten fingers.

Funny graph, showing the learning curves of the 3D editors Blender, ZBrush, 3D-Coat and Houdini. The curves of Blender, ZBrush and 3D-Coat are not aberrant, but Houdini's curve draws a steep hill with a massacre of human victims.

Regarde-moi dans les yeux, humain.
Tu crois que j’suis là pour l’air marin ?
J’suis venu pour ta gaufre. Toute ta gaufre. Et si tu veux pas finir avec du sable dans les lacets, tu ferais bien d’obéir, ici, c’est territoire volatile.
Et moi, c’est Don Piaf. Capisce ?
