3 Deleted Scenes from Wreck of the Nebula Dream
FROM THE ARCHIVES:
There are a few deleted scenes from WRECK OF THE NEBULA DREAM (which I’ve shared on blog posts here and there over the years and I thought this week would be a good time to dust them off for you again, since the 14th is the 110th anniversary of the Titanic (on which my scifi romance novel is loosely based) striking the iceberg and sinking.
