My box of Restore from Backup copies arrived, so I’ll have that [...]

I turned in a short story for the VisionCon program book, so you’ll get at least one bit of free fiction out of me if you’re going to be there. The story is “A Family Tree, Uprooted”, which was supposed to appear in an anthology called Family Plots but the publisher bit the dust some [...]
