The next Merchant book is at 32K words. I hope to make decent progress this coming week.
I have three stories to finish for the next Familiar Generations collection. They are on the back burner for the moment. I do not have release dates for either of those.
Two short stories or novellas, both music inspired and both fantasy, are also on the back burner. They are not part of any series at the moment.
I’m reading a number of books, including Charles Murry’s By The People. Just his descriptions of Supreme Court cases makes the book useful for me. I’m not entirely sure about some of his ideas, but he makes good arguments and it’s a great spring-board for discussion.
David Carrico’s The Blood is the Life is good thus far. How can you be a faithful Orthodox Jewish vampire? Carrico does characters very well, and I’m enjoying the book.
Cat Rotator's Quarterly 
The Blood is the Life is very good.
Concur with Paul, Dave’s characters are excellent!
