FORGED FROM THE STARS Announcement & Cover Reveal

FORGED FROM THE STARS Announcement & Cover Reveal

What is a perfect idea? FORGED FROM THE STARS is a perfect idea. A perfect collaboration, leading to a perfect title, a perfect tagline and a perfect cover. Inside, a perfect selection of galaxy-spanning epic science fiction featuring…not quite perfect heroines. They may have a few flaws here and there—flaws more than made up for with spirit, determination and a generous sprinkling of audaciousness. Damsels in distress, they are not.

FORGED FROM THE STARS is an upcoming collection featuring the first novels in three science fiction series: Ziva PayvanSpectras Arise and Aurora RisingSTARSHINE, you’ve probably heard of. I'm thrilled to have it included alongside books by two amazing women who are blazing their own trails in the independent publishing world, Dakiti: Ziva Payvan Book One by EJ Fisch and Contract of Defiance: Spectras Arise Book One by Tammy Salyer, plus a groovy foreword from irreverent writer, reviewer and wordsmith S.E. Lehenbauer.

AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE FOR KINDLE ON FEBRUARY 15TH AT A SPECIAL RELEASE PRICE OF $0.99

Galaxy Chronicles / Crime & Punishment Now Available

Happy Monday-After-Thanksgiving to my American readers! (I know, it's a bummer.) To everyone, welcome to December and the plethora of holidays it brings.

Allow me to say (with some authority) that what your holidays need is more space opera, speculative fiction and, above all, more books.

  • The Galaxy Chronicles is now available in ebook on Amazon. Paperbacks will follow in the next few weeks. Along with 11 other epic stories from some of today's best sci-fi authors, The Galaxy Chronicles includes my short story, Apogee. It tells the story of the opening hours of the 1st Crux War between the Earth Alliance and the Senecan Federation, as lived by the Senecans who started it. If you've had a chance to read Sidespace, there are several cryptic references to these events; read Apogee and discover the truth.

The Revolution

The Revolution

The Author's Note in Sidespace got a shiny new coat of paint for Aurora Renegades. Among a few other things, in it I say the following:

Sidespace was an independently published novel, written by one person and worked on by a small team of colleagues. Right now there are thousands of writers out there chasing this same dream.

Go to Amazon and surf until you find an author you like the sound of. Take a small chance with a few dollars and a few hours of your time. In doing so, you may be changing those authors’ lives by giving visibility to people who until recently were shut out of publishing, but who have something they need to say. It’s a revolution, and it’s waiting on you.

In the spirit of the Author's Note, Thanksgiving and the impending Christmas, Hannukah and New Years, I want to take the opportunity to express my thanks for the success I've enjoyed by spotlighting other authors.
