“I’m not, man. This is all in your mind.”
I raised my head and stared at the wall. Hoarse laughter erupted and then fell apart into spasms of hacking and coughing that eventually subsided into hawking and spitting. “Don’t worry, man, I’m just messing with you.”
A short story about the inevitability of death, and The Price of Liberty. First published in Son and Foe issue #4.

The most important news story of the year by Jeremiah Sturgill, posted on October 26, 2006 | Comments (0) Here it is: the most important news story of the year. It’s a thorough analysis of the problems with Diebold’s e-voting machines written by a tech site that most people probably haven’t heard of. If you live in a state that uses these monstrossities, please write a real letter to someone in power and let them know you don’t like it. Also call them. No emails! E-mails are pretty worthless, still.
While you’re at it, you can mention your displeasure with the Republican party’s “I’ll pardon myself and make torture legal and dispose of habeus corpus” law, too.
/end politics.
In which Jeremiah makes a pot roast.

New story posted to Son and Foe: Ann Leckie’s “How I Found God” by Jeremiah Sturgill, posted on October 22, 2006 | Comments (0) This week’s story is “How I Found God” by Ann Leckie. In case you didn’t notice, I’ve not been one to shy away from the God stories. I think that in general there’s something of a prejudice against them, so it’s harder for them to get picked up than, perhaps, it should be. Of course, that prejudice is well-earned by the large, large numbers of innefective, insulting, poorly thought out, and badly written God stories, so I don’t suppose anyone can reall complain too much about the state of affairs.
If you’d like to read the other stories we’ve published along these lines, stop by the archive and work your way up the list:

“On the Settling of Ancient Scores” by Ken Scholes
“When the Great Clod Belches” by Robert Burke Richardson (perhaps a bit of a stretch) and
