New T G Browning book

Many of you won’t know that a while ago I did some cartoon illustration for a chap in the US called T. G. Browning. Now, T. G. has proven to me time and again that he really is a thoroughly decent man, and more than this he is also a very amusing author.

I worked on Caught Dead & Other Catastrophes UK link US link, but he has also written two other books: Wired UK link US link and his new one Red Tide UK link US link. I’ve not read it yet (because it’s literally only just come out) but judging by his other work it will also be a great read.

T. G. is a publish-on-demand author, and I know how hard he works on his craft. I really do hope that he’ll be recognised by a major publishing house because his style is very laid-back, idiosyncratic, and definitely a refreshing change from the usual authors. Sometimes individuals produce far more interesting things than mainstream authors. Anyway, that’s enough of me plugging the books. I’m really looking forward to getting my copy, but now I’ve brought it to your attention I hope you’ll give it a try.

DS gets kinky… Perhaps

desire shook length
was had
because each blue foot reading

That sounds like something sexual to begin with, but that last line seems to definitely be going off onto something pretty unusual. Then again, maybe random-word digital poets are all into blue foot reading, and not liking it would be kinky.

I guess that opens up a whole strange world of ideas: what will AIs find kinky? “Phwoar! Look at the power supply on that Vic20!”
