Looks like Bill has written (or is writing) a sequel to pattern recognition—or at least something borrowing the same characters.

Brian Hoffman of SFGate kicks of the new year with a nice lead to the Jan 1 fishing report:
Commercial halibut boat, it appears that way, the skiff and the place and the way and the rods coming from the gunwales at degrees and angles. The man in the center with a palm over the wheel. Round-faced beacon in familiar alcoholic red grinning at a hint of Friday.
And worse and more powerful things have happened. No rain and too much rain, or indifference and meaning, just the grand act of bait-to-hook-to-water-to-nothing.
Or Red Rock itself - a pound of magnesium weathering under brush, and all the brush is poison oak, and the birds are all imbeciles, strung out on the pebble beach and begging a chance.
And he waves.
Good Christ.
He says, “Twenty feet. Like a blanket, they’re all over here.”
While you watch and you fish and you follow, hoping something might happen.
Until the sun crawls the hills and climbs into the gray. Until the currents take the boat and the December plants take the island, until the birds give up begging and come flapping about to gather souls.
And you never did think of what to say.
