15 Cinderella Fantasy/PNR FairyTale Retellings

VS Note: Portions of this post first appeared in the Roswell Daily Record…

The Disney movie “Cinderella” recently marked its 75th anniversary, which has prompted a lot of discussion on social media. My personal favorite version of the fairy tale is the movie “Ever After,” with Drew Barrymore and Dougray Scott. I think for me that one captures the story pretty perfectly. It also came out number one on a recent CNN article about the top 25 movie versions of the tale.

The basic story of a poor girl...

Why I Wrote HAINN the New Badari Warriors SciFi Romance + Excerpt

Writing HAINN gave me a chance to revisit a few favorite themes and people in Badari world and also to deal with a couple of open issues in the series arc. I also got to have fun with the concept of a Badari man and woman falling in love. I wasn’t sure my readers would appreciate a book with no human woman in the mix as the fated mate but it seemed to me Jezari and Hainn were a pretty perfect couple together.

HAINN contains mild spoilers for a number of the earlier books in the series but at thi...

20+ Authors Talk SciFi Romance Books in Need of More Love

Note: this post first appeared in the Roswell Daily Record…

I think almost every author has a book of the heart (or two) that never got the reader love and attention to truly launch it the way the author wanted or hoped for. This seemed like a good topic to explore around Valentine’s Day.  I recently asked some of my SciFi Romance author friends which book of theirs falls into this category and why, if they had an idea about that.

For myself it would be my most recent new release, Arrival (Plane...
