Thanks for this, Clancy. You buried it in the intro but I still wanted to give my condolences on your losses. That weighs so heavy and I'm sorry you're going through it. Thanks for still showing up for your Substack community in spite of it all.

I found out about this by pure chance, believe it or not (someone restacked it and mentioned me in their note). Weird that I didn't get any notifications. Anyway, I'm glad I did find out! Thank you so much, Clancy, for including me in this issue of FTL! You're doing such a great job with this series. I'll be sure to check out all the other names you've included. This place has an enormous number of hidden gems. :)

"(For those of you who might be interested in a physical copy of the novel and have made it this far through this bullshit intro, let me know so I can be confident enough on interest to invest in such a thing.)": Yes, I'll take two to start. One for me and another to send to my brother.

Come on, Substack, back me up! Tell this nice literary man you'd like a copy of big T to read on a park bench or in a coffee shop in the rain.
