The Anachronist

John Skylar, in some timelines, is a Professor of Anachronism at the University of Constantinople, but mostly he is a bioscientist and SF author living in New York City. You can follow johnskylar.com on tumblr or on twitter as johnskylar. If you live in New York, you might enjoy a chat with him at the Immodest Proposals discussion series, which he started with Better Worlds.

Time to do a Little Explaining

Well, hello there.  Blogging for yourself is still a thing, isn’t it?

There was a time when I wrote things on a blog called The Anachronist’s Blog.  Back when I started that blog, I was working on a fiction project it was tied to, and I was focused solely on that fiction project.  Not anymore.

Now I run a discussion group called Immodest Proposals through a thing I call Better Worlds.  I’m still pursuing (and getting close to end of) my PhD, as well.

On top of that, I’ve been a finalist in a writing contest and have switched to a focus on short stories.  My goals have changed somewhat, and with that, I’ve changed johnskylar.com to point here, instead of to my fiction-only blog that was written in the “Dr. John Skylar, Professor of Anachronism,” character.

Yes, I recognize that this makes me yet another idealist writer with a blog and hopey, dreamy, changey stuff.

Pretty sure I’m okay with that.  How are you?
