We past five weeks of staying home here this week and 2020 is not at all the year any of us thought it would be.
I’ve got a lot to be grateful for. I have plenty of work to do and can get into the forest with the dogs, but boy is strange.
This far in, I’m able to read fiction again and have been enjoying one of Jim Butcher’s Desden Files books. Very entertaining. As I write this, the first one is on sale for $2.99 if you want to check it out.
I know I’m lucky in all of this and even with that, it’s a lot.
So, to help you all keep from going stir crazy it’s time for another free book. No email required. No strings attached.
This time it’s Seeing Forever, my 2018 sci-fi novel.
“In this quiet but far-reaching thriller, author McCarter explores the essence of what it means to be human… Sci-fi as it should be: engaging, moving, and grand in scope.” – Kirkus Review
All the details are on the Stir Crazy Stories page at robertjmccarter.com/stircrazystories. There are two books for free right now.
So go grab the book, spread the word, escape a little.
Stay safe and stay sane out there!

P.S. Here’s the blurb for the book:
A life worth living?
Paul Cruz is no longer human. He’s a Singular, his consciousness technological, no longer biological. He was there at the beginning and helped ensure the survival of all the Singulars. Free from the limits of flesh and blood, he wanted to live forever, but now that he’s lost what he cares about the most, forever is too long, much too long.
After suspending himself for decades he is about to enter a virtual world called “Home” to take one last look around. But Home is not what he expected and what he finds will change everything.
When is forever too long?
From Robert J. McCarter, author of Shuffled Off: A Ghost’s Memoir, comes an unforgettable sci-fi novel of life, loss, and love beyond the biological.
