Comic: Crazy from the heat

I love a man out of uniform.

Net loss

I’ve got an opinion piece up at Maisonneuve about net neutrality in Canada. It’s turned out to be a hot issue in the last couple of weeks, with the opposition parties calling for the government to legislate net neutrality and town halls across the country addressing the subject. We need to get NN enshrined in legislation now, before the corporations throttle us into submission and turn the Internet into network TV.

Just some strangers I photographed in the woods. The shots of the body didn’t really turn out.

I didn’t even notice the sandal when I took this photo.

This is a pic from a cooking class my wife took in Thailand. When I asked her if it was vegetarian she laughed. And laughed. And laughed.

My short stories now 99 cents

In light of the worsening economy I’m introducing Peter Darbyshire’s Short Story Stimulus Package. I’ve dropped the prices of my short stories on my online store to 99 cents (which, coincidentally, is the same price as short stories on the newly launched Shortcovers site). Now you don’t have to choose between that can of nourishing cat food or one of my stories — you can have both! Of course, you could skip the cat food and buy an extra story….

I’m leaving the price of Please, my novel, at $9.99. What can I say? I like the number 9.

If you bought a story at the old price, I’ll give you one of the other stories for free. Just e-mail me with your choice. If you bought all of the stories at the old price… thanks! My champagne baths wouldn’t be possible without your support! (E-mail me and I’ll send you my next story for free. Whenever I have time to finish another story. Damn novels.)

And speaking of Shortcovers, I’ve made “Has the World Ended Yet?” available on it for sale, where it’s currently the second most popular story on the site. I’ll probably add the others later when I have time (I have to reformat them to post them on Shortcovers).

Now start shopping and save us!
