I’ve been very quiet lately on my mailing list, social media, my Patreon site, and this-here blog. I haven’t quit in any sense, but rather I’ve been very “locked in” as the young people say these days.

I’ve been locked in on my coming book publications: one poetry book, and one essay book. I’m pleased to say they’re almost ready. I’m into the second round of test proof copies for both of them. One of them appears to be at “golden master” status now. The other is in its final tweaking stage before what should be the final proof copy and its release.

So all of my “radio silence” has been the calm before the storm. I’ll be working this launch quite extensively. And there’s not all that much left before the launch sequence gets started in earnest. It’ll be quite a storm!

Storm? Yes. Some of the material in the books, most especially a particular essay, may be seen as rather controversial, even notorious. Though you might not believe me, that’s a bit understated. Will the Skaldic Eagle become infamous? Time will tell.
