FEATURED BOOK OF THE MONTH

Jay And Char Save The Galaxy

Delivery jobs don’t usually come with a side of heroism.

Husband and wife duo Jay and Char run a transport starship-for-hire. They haul cargo and passengers across the galaxy—for the right price. Is it the prestigious job Jay’s mother wished he had? No, but disappointing her was nothing new.

When a pair of nonhuman travelers booked passage on Jay and Char’s ship, they failed to mention the whole host of trouble they’d be bringing with them. Now, the fate of the galaxy is in jeopardy, and it’s somehow up to a pair of middle-aged interplanetary freight haulers to fix it.

And the bigger question is: Will saving the galaxy finally be enough to make it onto Jay’s mom’s holiday brag letter?

Spending Money to Make Money

November 21, 2020

Spending money in the interest of making money is never comfortable. I recently wrote about art and money, and my realization that I need to hire someone to do marketing because I am not very good at selling myself and my work. This, of course, causes a walk outside of...

Art and Money

November 14, 2020

Learning not to be afraid of money and its relationship to your art. When you do a hobby, it is entirely for your own edification. You do the thing you do for fun, because it makes you feel good, and because it stirs creative juices and produces life-affirming endorphins and...
