Borderline – Free SF Novella on Kindle
Because there’s nothing like a blast of SF adrenaline to get an author’s creative juices flowing. I pretty much ground to a halt last year, toiling away on a hugely complicated steampunk project that sapped my stamina to nought. So I decided to take a month off to write something just for fun—a stripped-down, hell-for-leather getaway chase across an […]
Titanic…In Spaaaaaace: “Wreck of the Nebula Dream” by Veronica Scott
When Veronica Scott’s sci-fi novel, ‘Wreck of the Nebula Dream’ released in March, 2012, it came at an interesting time for me. This book is loosely based on the story of the Titanic disaster. At the time, my youngest boy was studying this in school and had become quite obsessed with the story, requiring multiple […]
Shawna Thomas: For The Love of Spock!
I’ve been a Star Trek fan since I can remember. I am one of those fans that literally cried when the Enterprise was destroyed in Search for Spock. I read every book I could get my hands on and although I loved Kirk (My son’s lizard’s name is Tiberius James) and his love affair with […]
Coming Soon from Carina Press..
My second sci fi novella from Carina Press will be released soon: September 24th, 2012. I’m currently suffering from pre-release jitters (is it just me that experiences this?) Once release day hits and it’s out there in the world, I’ll be fine. T minus seven days until I get my mental health back and I’ll […]
Cover art: Stellarnet Prince by J.L. Hilton
I finally received the cover for my next book, Stellarnet Prince, which is coming out in November. Not that the art was late or anything, I was just impatient to see it! I’m so excited about this next installment in the Stellarnet Series. I think I’m starting to feel like a “real” author now that […]
Upcoming SF at Carina Press: Cyber Sparks
I’m a big fan of mystery elements in SF stories. One of my all-time favourites is Rendezvous With Rama by Arthur C. Clarke, in which an intrepid human crew enters a giant, hollow alien cylinder adrift in our solar system. They know absolutely nothing about its origin or contents, and little by little, you could […]
Upcoming Release – Alien ‘n’ Outlaw
Whoo! I finally have cover art and a blurb for the sequel to Spice ‘n’ Solace! It’s coming from Carina Press in early July, and I can’t wait. Also, this makes this blog post a no-brainer, which is excellent, since I’m pretty sure I’ve misplaced my brain sometime this week. I also think Croco Designs […]
A Little Off Topic
Okay, I know this is a sci-fi log, but I am so happy with a short paranormal erotic novella I intend to self publish on June 1st that I can’t help but put a little something on there to tell you all about it. First, don’t you love this cover? Like I said last time, […]
An Apology and a Prezzie!
Hello to my friends and fellow authors and to all who enjoy reading this blog! I am so sorry I haven’t been on here for a while. I had a very bad case of pneumonia. Then, just as I seemed over it, I got it again. Then when I finally returned to my day job, […]
Pirates and Bounty Hunters…In Spaaaaace.
Do you know that game when, after eating your Chinese food, you open up your fortune cookie and read it, then add “in bed” to the end of it? My most recent one? “Hard work will get you wherever you want to go…in bed.” Hmm. I don’t know if I want my funtimes between the […]
