updated Mar 29, 2010 04:32pm
Description:
Thirty-two-year-old writer, Damian Cross, has just returned from a disastrous first book tour only to be dumped by his fiancée. Now newly-single for the first time in seven years, he has to pick up the pieces, start his life all over again, and write a second novel.
Damian blogs his way through today's dating scene and all its hazards—online dating, biological clocks, single mothers and their children, well-meaning friends, ex-girlfriends, and his meddling, matchmaking cousin—to find that the only thing that stands between him and success may actually be himself. Can Damian stop his world from crumbling around him and get it together in time to gain a chance at true happiness and write the “booty novel” everyone's telling him to write?
Sunshine Patriots (Science Fiction & Fantasy)

updated Mar 29, 2010 04:32pm
Description:
Rebellion erupts on the "paradise" planet of Elysia, plunging the colony into chaos. In response, the all-powerful United Earth dispatches its elite corps of cyborg soldiers, led by Aaron "The Berber" Barber. For a hero celebrated galaxy-wide for his acts of bravery against alien hordes, a ragtag group of colonized miners with antiquated weapons should be no challenge. But Barber and his soldiers are unprepared to meet the most dangerous enemy yet--humans just like them. And on Elysia, the soldiers discover dangers that neither United Earth nor the Elysians themselves could have foreseen. The secrets Barber and his soldiers uncover lead them to question the true meaning of freedom in a world where nothing is what it seems.

| You know, I absolutely adored Pym. So, I decided to try this one out. It's definitely a first novel and a little too MFA-y for my personal tastes. I guess, sometimes, you probably shouldn't go backwards in exploring an author's work. | |

| I am jealous of the world that Beukes has created. It's an extremely entertaining ride with a fantastically flawed heroine. I wish more urban fantasy could be like this. | |

Good morning Bill!How are you?
I was supposed to send this message with your invitation....yes well....I am not so good with computer skills (which is pretty evident)....so here it is!
Greetings from England!
I am sorry I have been so busy on promotions and rarely get the pleasure to indulge myself on this site but I just wanted to invite you personally to listen to the BBC, who invited both myself and 8 Joni-Pip avids to appear on their show Go4it!
It's probably impossible to listen to the BBC in your neck of the woods but I wanted to invite you anyway.
I hope all is going spiffingly with you!

I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me yesterday. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.Argh...this is terrible...
Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats. -Jeremy :)
P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Jeremy :)
