Now I REALLY feel like a writer again
The short story "Cold," which originated with my writing for NaNoWriMo 2007, will be published in the November 2009 issued of Crossed Genres. It's about two young women, Boleyn & Bai, on a planet in the late stages of terraformation.

Terraforming notes
A few notes about what terraforming is. A terraforming project on an extrasolar planet is the context of my SF novel-in-progress "Cold."
