Regular readers of this site have doubtless noted we’ve been a bit slack in getting our columns going on a regular basis. The reasons for this are many in number, and are mostly connected to the fact that all contributors to Futurismic have other commitments too, usually ones that pay them for their time (we do this just for the love, you know).

However, yours truly is taking the helm of the essays department, and it is my intention to ramp up the frequency of new work appearing in this section – not just from the usual Futurismic faces, but hopefully from some special guests as well. I’ll keep you posted as to further developments.

In the meantime, there’s a new piece from me about to go live. I hope you find it (and subsequent works) interesting and thought-provoking – as always, reader comments are more than welcome, because Futurismic is your site too.
