Spotlight on LGBTQ+ #SciFi and SciFi Romance Novels
Note: This post first appeared in the Roswell Daily Record.
Since June is Pride Month, I thought I’d feature a few LGBTQ+ science fiction romances in this column. Many of the authors mentioned write in a wide variety of genres but for today’s post I’ll stick to their works in the SF genre.
Author Skye MacKinnon’s Animals and Aliens series are “out of this world F/F romances with strong human women and determined alien females.” The Alien’s Zookeeper (Arizona Tape is the co-author on this one),...

Resourceful RENNYR Weekend Writing Warriors
I’m not formally participating in either weekend snippet hop right now because I’ve had a medical issue which is constraining my time and energy (not cancer), and right now am in that time frame where it’s all testing, with the answers I need yet to come. I’ll keep posting a weekly snippet because the effort to do so isn’t too taxing, but I just can’t make it around to everyone else’s blog to comment.

I Have to Fight Weekend Writing Warriors
I’m not formally participating in either weekend snippet hop right now because I’ve had a medical issue which is constraining my time and energy (not cancer), and right now am in that time frame where it’s all testing, with the answers I need yet to come. I’ll keep posting a weekly snippet because the effort to do so isn’t too taxing, but I just can’t make it around to everyone else’s blog to comment. I apologize for not commenting last weekend but I was in the hospital.

Why I Wrote ESCAPE FROM ZULAIRE #SciFi Romance
Many years ago, I read “Shadow of the Moon,” by M. M. Kaye, which was a well researched (and very long) novel set in India in the mid 1800’s. Much of the plot revolves round the Sepoy Rebellion or Incident, the terrible things that occurred during that time (rights and wrongs on both sides, I’m sure) and her main characters’ efforts to escape death. I’d never heard of the Rebellion before reading her novel but since then I researched it pretty heavily. One aspect fascinated me...

Why I Wrote Star Cruise Time Loop #SciFi Romance
This 35K word novella was originally written to be my story in the Pets in Space 6 anthology (which is no longer available).
Some years the Pets story idea would come first for me and other years the pet concept was first and drove the story. This year they arrived in my head together, which made things easy.
I LOVE “Groundhog Day” style stories, and of course the original movie with Bill Murray. It finally dawned on me in 2021 that I could and should write one myself if I enj...
