Couldn't tell if this was one long poem or 80+ short ones so I said fuck it and read the whole thing. Which, I think, is what I did with his last book, too. Eh, whatever, good either way.

In science fiction, subgenres often give birth to other subgenres. Steampunk, for instance, led to dieselpunk. But what is dieselpunk? That question is answered, literally, in this exclusive interview with Danielle Ackley-McPhail and John L. French, editors of the new short story anthology "Grease Monkeys: The Heart And Soul Of Dieselpunk."

As an old man, I find myself appreciating stories about older heroes more these days. And I'm not alone in this. In my new interview with author Valerie Valdes, she talks about how the appeal of older characters led her to write her new space fantasy novel "Where Peace Is Lost."
