About This Blog

As a science fiction/fantasy author, I discuss topics such as science, writing science fiction/fantasy, indie-publishing, books, and authors. On a personal note, I also blog about my family and the Beatles. I usually post three times a week. A recurring topic is Science of the Week on Fridays, though sometimes it's preempted.

Although I'm not comfortable reviewing books, I am willing to host author interviews and participate in blog tours. Please e-mail me at ulbrichalmazanATsbcglobalDOTnet.
