Hi, I'm Ian McLeod, author of THE DARWINVERSE series of pop-satires as well as three books of poetry (so far) that...funny enough...outsell my satire. Who'd have thought? All of that is available on Amazon.

Note: read to the bottom of this post to get the DON'T GO INTO RECOVERY sci-fi series in a convenient order, or listen to VALVE COVER GASKET poems in order as I post them.

I'm also a sci-fi writer. Have been doing that for...over 20 years...finally getting it out there.

I have a bunch of other projects. This funds those.

I also keep a website at ianmcleod.com. Blog, some short stories, a FREE SF serial because I can....some poetry, etc. available there. And you can order some signed books and awesome shirts--which are usually printed with mine own hand--from my shop there. Premium content goes here.

If you're reading this you're likely familiar with me from somewhere like that anyway. If not...welcome! I am working on a lot of projects. The two primary projects -here- at Subscribestar are below, in order. I'll be updating this post as I add more to them.

DON'T GO INTO RECOVERY:
Chapter 1 (Free)
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 6
Chapter 7
Chapter 8
Chapter 9
Chapter 10
Chapter 11
Chapter 12
Chapter 13 (coming soon)

basically all of the above, but we'll probably do a video call every month, and you can also ask me (via email) advice directly about writing, small business, and other stuff and will get a response... (of course that response might indeed be "wow I can't help you.")

same as above, but with bragging rights. I might even agree to proofread for you but it'd better be interesting and I'm probably not your editor.

Aware I'm behind on the next installment. Coming really soon, I've just been busy with a bunch of medical crap and other stuff that has kept me away from this. Not that this is bad, my schedule is just all kinds of messed up due to the medication I'm on. Hoping I finally get the dosage dialed in by the neuro next week!

New tee over at the site!

Also, once the YOU MIGHT GET A DO-OVER serial is complete over there, I'll transmogrify it into ebook form for subscribers over here before publishing it on Amazon. I'm thinking that once it's complete, and the next serial starts, I'll remove that serial from my main site (thus making it exclusive to Subscribestar and to Amazon, while the new free serial will be free...then lather, rinse, repeat with the new serial).

I think I can do both a .pdf and .mobi download. I have made the whole thing much easier to navigate over there though.

I'm working on the next VALVE COVER GASKET post, but hey guys and gals--the medication I was just put on is kicking my butt...Keppra (levetiracetam) and gabapentin are a fascinating combination of drugs--I have not gotten this much sleep in ages. I sounded like a stoner on my last attempted recording. Might be a few more days. I'll be working on the freeeeeeee SF over at ianmcleod.com and on the paid stuff here. I plan to have more posts real soon, just gotta get used to the scripts. It's just medication is a weird thing.
