Over at the blog, I admit I was a fan of the original Newlywed Game, which debuted 60 years ago today. bobgreenberger.com/2...

This week on Planetside… Our series Writing from Science continues with “Searching the Medical Literature for Yourself” by Randall Hayes, PhD, read by @bobgreenberger.bsky.social: sfwa.org/2026/07/07/s...

Over at the blog, I review Supergirl, which I liked, wondering where the hate comes from, and conclude it's because different people see Supergirl in different ways. bobgreenberger.com/2...

Reminds me of my favorite Worf line, which comes from the novel DOOMSDAY WORLD by, among others, @bobgreenberger.bsky.social. "If I had been allowed to do what I wanted to do when I wanted to do it, we would have had fewer problems." Like Sartre wrote, "Hell is other people."

Over at the blog, I reveal my packed-as-usual schedule for #ShoreLeave46, which starts on Friday. I hope to see many of your there! bobgreenberger.com/2...

I have read this and suggest any comics fan will appreciate the book.

Over at the blog, I reminisce on 60 years of Dark Shadows. bobgreenberger.com/wp-admin/pos...

The Department of Defense, under orders from unqualified leadership, have asked for $70 billion for Iran. Having squandered more than twice that, I find it an irresponsible use of tax payer dollars. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/24/u...

This week on Planetside… Our series Writing by Other Means continues with “Photostories Past and Present” by @emmaliawrites.bsky.social, read by @bobgreenberger.bsky.social: sfwa.org/2026/06/16/p...

June 17, 2026 A senior U.S. official read the text of the fourteen-point memorandum of understanding with Iran over the phone to reporters today, and there’s a reason it has ignited a firestorm. A memorandum of understanding is usually a nonbinding agreement….

The June newsletter is now available with some news and some chatter.

Got my copies of THRILLING ADVENTURE YARNS 2026 and the book looks great. If you missed the Kickstarter and want to read short fiction by me, @yesthatstevengrant.bsky.social, @paulkupperberg.bsky.social, @bobgreenberger.bsky.social and many more, hop over to Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

Over at the blog, I announce my retirement (mostly). bobgreenberger.com/2...

The steampunk short story clocks in at 8600 words, 1100 over the suggested word count and is off to Mr. Editor.

After three days of trying to write, and life getting in the way, I am finally back at the keyboard working on my first steampunk short story. 4400 words down, over halfway to the goal. #amwritng (at last).

Our "Girls, Women, and Ladies" issue has an article on one of the first real attempts to bring Japanese Manga to the US in 1986, led by the series "Mai, the Psychic Girl". Article written by Robert Greenberger @bobgreenberger.bsky.social

The May newsletter is available, and I continue to see subscribers.

I have a story in this sampler series so do give it and the others a try.

Here's a worthy project that could use some love.

This week on Planetside… Our series The History Files continues with “A Brief History of SFWA: The Nebula Awards Report” by @michaelcapobianco.bsky.social, read by @bobgreenberger.bsky.social: www.sfwa.org/2026/04/28/a...

Hey writers, anyone familiar with a hero display? It was described as a professionally designed visual banner that presents my manuscript in a clear and engaging way. It highlights key elements such as synopsis, core themes, and important details that is easy to understand at a glance.

Just a few days left to support Southwatch Stories by Crazy 8 Press & StarWarp Concepts. Stories by Robert Greenberger, Hildy Silverman, Paul Kupperberg, Aaron Rosenberg, Natalie Bartley, Phil Giunta, Bobby Nash, Dayton Ward, Steve Saville, & Richard White. www.kickstarter.com/projects/ss4...

The oddly developing writing project has been bouncing along at a good clip and I have started getting my hopes up. Now, the next person in this chain has yet to reply. Nothing wrong with that, but all the momentum has stopped. It feels very unusual.

If you missed the Kickstarter for the THRILLING ADVENTURE YARN anthology, you can preorder the book at Amazon now. Stories by me, @yesthatstevengrant.bsky.social, @kradec.bsky.social, @alisakwitney.bsky.social and many more. Edited by @bobgreenberger.bsky.social. www.amazon.com/dp/B0GWS2XZ2...

Thank you, Leonid and Dan for tying as my 2400th follower!

Crazy story: a commissioning editor reaches out of the blue. After verifying she's real, we chat, and I wound up dusting off an old outline she sparked to. She likes it and suddenly, I may have a new project.

Well, not a lot of you subscribed, but I am going ahead with the first installment and will see what happens. Thanks to those who signed up!

Let's try this again. After technical issues have been resolved, I'm launching the newsletter tomorrow. If you want periodic reports from me about my books, appearances, and other things, subscribe here: bobgreenberger.beehi... Do let me know if this doesn't work this time.

Marina Sirtis was one of the four TNG actors with likeness approvals and here she seems happy with some Pablo Marcos artwork.

I have 10 PDF ARCs for Thrilling Adventure Yarns 2026 that I would like to share with people in exchange for an honest review on Goodreads before our July release. If you want some rollicking tales from a host of talented writers and can meet this date, please email me at [email protected].

The original fantasy outline has survived the first Beta reader. Now it's odd to numbers two and three. After their feedbaxk, we will see what comes next.

Where do writers get their ideas? Any and everywhere. Overnight, I got up and was suddenly struck with a central idea for a story featuring some of my existing characters. This morning, more of the story slipped into focus. Now it needs to gel and then get written.

Much to my surprise, the outline for the original fantasy novel has been completed. I've given it a revision and now turn it over to two Beta readers to see if it makes sense to anyone but me. #amwriting

Over at the blog, I talk about the process I used to craft my novel outline and how long it has taken me. bobgreenberger.com/2...

The winner of Best Picture was 30 minutes too long.

It won't be out until July, but you can pre-order Cases by Candlelight Vol. 5, which features new #SherlockHolmes stories from me, Christopher Abbott, Aaron Rosdenberg, and Hildy Silverman. www.amazon.com/dp/B0...

Considering Paramount doesn't know how to manage its prime IP, I worry for the DCU.

I just backed Land The Shuttlecraft Galileo on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/lan...

I put the original outline aside to begin work on my #sherlockholmes story for @crazy8press#sherlockholmes Cases by Candlelight vol. 5., coming in July. 3500 words down so far....

I hit a positive milestone this morning: the original fantasy novel outline has reached chapter 20, the story's halfway point. Now to let it rest, and tomorrow I can review it and revise to tighten things before starting the back half.

The manuscript for @Crazy8Press' Thrilling Adventure Yarns 2026 is now in the hands of book designer @gryphonrose. As a result, I will be closing Late Pledges on Saturday, February 23.

Over at the blog, I recap what I've got coming out and what I am writing this year. More goodness and fun, of course. bobgreenberger.com/2...
