| I Took a year off from electronics to write a Sci-Fi book. |

Cruising towards retirement and the volume of electronics work was starting to dry up so I recently decided to cross one of the things off my bucket list and wrote a science fiction novel. An epic tale of a young woman's journey through the singularity, with 2048-bit carbon nanotube 3D processors and flying saucers thrown in for good measure! It was both easier and harder than I expected, and I learnt a lot from the experience mainly that it needs to be a labour of love and don't give up your day job! I wrote it up here -> https://rodyne.com/?page_id=1252 Anyway, back to 8-bit microprocessors and C :( PS I wasn't sure whether to post this in the dodgy technologies category as most of the tech in the book nails all of the tropes! :-DD |

Presto-Bongo "Cult of the Dead Electrolytic" and Tax-free status for life! |
