How will humans #evolve into the future? How might humans evolve if our civilization was lost and the climate was unforgiving for millions of years? Or if two populations of humans were geographically isolated for that long? For this week I'd like to offer #FediHumans a free copy of HUMAN.

When writing the acknowledgements for my novel HUMAN it occurred to me that one of the greatest debts I owe is to all the authors that I’ve read throughout my life. Not only classic literature, fantastical tales and heartbreaking stories, but also non-fiction, whether about #science or #history, #economics or home renovation. In fact, why stop there? I must also include scientific papers, newspaper articles, blogs, and all the various and sundry writings I’ve ever come across.
Together, they provided me with the rich tapestry of stories and facts which have smashed around in my head and resulted in creative thoughts of my own. They also provided me with the knowledge of how to write. I never really learned how to write a story, I’ve only intuited how to do so through reading what others have written.
So I would like to thank everyone who has ever let loose written words into the world. I’ve made HUMAN free this week for all #FediHumans. Visit https://bretthodnett.com/FreeHUMAN.html and use the code ‘fedihuman’ to get your free EPUB.

With the release of my novel HUMAN, I’d like to thank my multi-talented son, @ryanhodnett It is in large part his commitment to the #fediverse that has inspired me to make #HUMAN free for #FediHumans during the first week of it’s launch (use the code ‘fedihuman’ at https://bretthodnett.com/FreeHUMAN.html).

First of all, I'd like to thank Ryan for his direct assistance with the creation of HUMAN, without which, the process would have been much more painful and fraught, and the resulting story would have suffered greatly. Specifically, I would like to thank him for the creation of my website, the majority of the design and creation of the book cover, and the formatting of #HUMAN into an EPUB.
Ryan’s edits of a later draft were indispensable, and his input on the broad conceptual components of the book, as well as his identification of inconsistencies, made a huge difference to the quality of the tale.
Quite apart from Ryan’s specific contributions to this book, our long discussions on disparate topics unrelated to this book fertilized my imagination and led to many of the ideas within these pages. For that, as well as for the inspiration I derive from how Ryan approaches the world, and simply for his existence in it, I am also grateful.
