Diving Into February…

The frosty winds of February howl outside the MEF garret, carrying the drumbeats of tyranny. Another day, another batch of despotic craziness. It’s getting harder and harder to write speculative fiction because just watching the news is a long dive into the bizarre and unbelievable. Oh well, interesting times, right?!?

That said, A Pair of Amulets is my eighth published piece for 2025. There are a whole lot more stories coming your way, so hold onto your hats, folks! How will you know when a new story breaks? Glad you asked, Friends. Read On! Drum roll and… Meanwhile, don’t miss any upcoming stories. You can stay tuned for all the latest by following the MEF blog:
