Ths Sqinks Journal - Paperback

by Rudy Rucker (Author)

A writer's journey through grief. The Sqinks Journal. Rucker's notes on losing his wife, writing his SF novel SQINKS, and finding love once more. Sadr and happy, both. With a master's insights into his craft. Most of the book is in the form of a journal of writing notes, with frequent speculations about where the story is going. In some ways the novel is like an autobiography, with a character who is living the author's life. The entries are personal, and often funny. It's a writer's life seen from the inside. Sqinks is transreal cyberpunk love story. I use the my word "transreal" to refer to SF tales that mirror the author's own life. That is to say, the novel is about Rudy. Throughout the novel, the narrator is trying to finish writing. And to find a way to publish it. A writer's life indeed!
