I seem to be making solid progress at the moment on one of several current works, a novel that isn't exactly steampunk, isn't exactly magepunk, isn't exactly fantasy. I'm really unsure how to classify it. Its closest genre cousin might perhaps be Jack L. Chalker's Soul Rider series. Plus I have a volume of Sunlit Land short stories in progress, with three stories down, and the beginnings of a follow-on Stardock book, and an untitled mystery that might perhaps end up fitting into the Agencysphere.

So many books, so little sleep.
