CERN has re run the ‘faster than light’ neutrino experiment and replicated the results even after refining their methods. Still lots of controversy but exciting.

So todays version of Elgin is up at Smashwords, or should be shortly. As before please have a look and let me know what you think. If you can plow through all the bad grammar, fumble finger mistakes, cut and paste snafu’s etc. You can follow the links to the side they should get you there, and they also give you access to the Moon Dreams a sci fi thriller about the year after next year, and if you like that, Under Siege, a novel of the far distant future, where humans are still human far from the wreckage that was Earth.
Cheers

Space Based Power!
Power Sat Concept
IAA says Space Based Grid Pwer Generation is a realistic prospect in 30 years, which actually says today because it would take that long to build the infrastructure to make it real.

So I’ve always had this problem, I have a picture of the arc of the story now, have various characters in place, more things to reveal. etc, etc but I begin to wonder is it all too damn predictable. If some has read to this point are they going to say, ‘oh I know how this all ends up, BORING.” I don’t think so but it niggles at me.

Where goes California there goes the U.S. I hope Not!
Interesting article looking at the state of the regulatory state bell weather (California.)
Elgin is up on Smashwords
- Cover to Elgin By M.A.Harris
So here is the cover I whined about spending a lot of Saturday working on, I think its pretty good.
You should be able to click-through and get to the Smaswords page for the book and download the most current version. I pulled up the ePub version, seems to work pretty well. Saw several issues already but that’s what you get for getting the raw unedited form.
Don’t feel bad if you can’t make progress because of all the bad grammar and spelling. But if you can plow through, suggestions would be welcome, I just won’t guarantee I’ll take them up.
Anyway here is the link to Elgin, again
Regards

So when you get to see where I am story wise you’ll agree that this is not a 50K word book, but I think I can keep it sub 100K….maybe, I hope anyway. We shall see.
