A few more thoughts about how I represented the consequences of cryogenic sleep in Spacewalker.

My developmental editor introduced me to the concept of "Killing your darlings" and it led to removing Spacewalker's prologue.

A recent vacation mistake has me reflecting on my most memorable sunburn.

As I reached the end of writing my first draft, I asked myself: Who will live? Who will die? And why haven't I already figured this out?

Is Spacewalker the same story after six major revisions? Am I the same author?

A clarifying moment in 2017 convinced me to stop pursuing a politics blog and go for writing a novel.
