A quick manifesto for you this morning. https://cliffjones.substack.com/p/dreampunk-manifesto

I just got my first review on Amazon for my first solo fiction book!

"Surreal Sci-Fi For Serious Thinkers

This novel from Cliff Jones, Jr. is my kind of science fiction novel: It's unpredictable, profound, philosophical and filled with insightful social commentary and brilliant satire on ever page.

Honestly, there are enough great ideas in this book to fill 3 other sci-fi novels, but somehow Jones manages to cram one ingenious concept after the other into every single chapter.

Once I started, I couldn't stop thinking about it until I reached the ending.

Looking forward to more great writing from this author. He's definitely a talent to watch!"

I've done short #fiction collections, but today is my solo debut! #DRECK is a new #dreampunk #novella exploring the #tech of today through my own peculiar #PhilipKDick-esque lens. Thanks to #JeffNoon for the blurb!

@writingcommunity@a.gup.pe How do you deal with the excruciatingly long wait between finishing a manuscript and seeing it in print?

My debut novella #DRECK has been waiting with the publisher so long that #dreampunk legend Jeff Noon read it and wrote a nice little review a full year and a half ago (#bragging, #nameDropping). Edits and illustrations are complete, just waiting in line behind one other book now.
