New poem in Astropoetica

You can read my poem “A Hail of Pebbles and Dust” in the 2011 Winter issue of Astropoetica!

It was inspired by conditions hypothesized to exist on the surface of exoplanet COROT-7b (and a few other things you’ll be able to guess).

Also, something about my choice of words… In English – or in Hungarian for that matter! – “tribal” carries very strong negative connotations, it is often used as a synonym for “primitive”. As someone from a tribal culture, I really resent this and do everything to dispel the association. Someone from a tribe, in space? Bring it on!!

“Primitive” is also a really relative concept, for that matter – who is primitive? I have been called primitive quite a few times, mostly on account of my religious beliefs, and I think I’m quite modern.  Look, I even have my own website! ;)

Book swap list

This one is mostly for Hungarians, I moved my book swap list here. (It’s still up on moly.hu and that version won’t be going anywhere for the time being, this link is for people who don’t have an account on Moly.) You can also buy books from me :)

More new articles (English/Hungarian)

I updated my two lists of articles: English / Hungarian

Yet another gigantic heap of articles in Hungarian… lately I’ve also been writing hardware reviews, it’s great fun as long as the device doesn’t want to explode in my hands ;) Right now I even have a cool infobox listing my ebook reader reviews on the main page of nyest.hu, just below the Facebook app.

I should write more in English, I know, I know! I haven’t written anything in months and now it’s just the backlog. It’s time to send out a bunch of article queries! And there is also research to be done… *cue Portal theme song*
