Christmas Break.

I'm sure my enormous army of loyal readers (I DO have an enormous army of loyal readers, right? ...Right?) is looking forward to Part 10 of "Ruins", but I'm sure most of you celebrate Christmas, and even though I'm an atheist, I do too.

I'll start putting up Part 10 on the 26th. In the meantime, spend time with your family, have a party, do whatever you do this time of year, and if you've got some free time, maybe catch up on Part 1 and comment with your thoughts? *wink*

Anyway, to quote Krusty the Clown, have a merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, a Kwaaaazy Kwanzaa, a tip-top Tet, and a solemn and dignified Ramadan.

Welcome to my Blog!

Hello there! My name is R. Anthony Mahan. I'm an aspiring science fiction author (I say "aspiring" because I've yet to be published yet) and thought a blog would be a good way to get my work and name out without worrying about the publishing process just yet. So far I've written a handful of short stories and a perpetually in-progress novel (the novel is technically finished, in the sense I've fully covered the plot, but I still feel it's lacking). I plan to put these, along with any other new writing I may do, on the blog gradually (the novel would be released serially, a chapter at a time). I may even make "Author's Notes" posts to outline some behind-the-scenes work. The best part is that I can use your feedback to help improve my writing! If you read something, just leave a comment and tell me what you like and what you don't. So long as it's civil, I welcome any criticism, since I need to improve my work as much as possible. I also welcome any praise, because...well, I'm vain.

If you like my work, be sure to tell your friends!
