POINT OF VIEW: Worlds That Never Were

November 13, 2017 by scott

Hey all, This week I am bouncing between edits for “Lander”, from my Oberon Cycle trilogy, and beta reads for “The Rising Tide”, in my Liminal Sky series. Both involve interesting worlds that are almost characters in and of themselves. 🙂 Forever, in Liminal Sky, is an O’Neill Cylinder. From Wikipedia: “…a space settlement design proposed by American physicist Gerard K. O’Neill in his 1976 book The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space.[1] O’Neill proposed the colonization of space for the 21st century, using materials extracted from the Moon and later from asteroids.” But I’ve had a hard time finding art … Read more

POINT OF VIEW: Sometimes I Want It Sweet

November 6, 2017 by scott

I write all kinds of things. OK, basically three kinds of things: –Sci Fi –Fantasy –Contemporary Magical Realism I am well-known for always wanting my contemporary to have a little extra something. The magical medallion in “Between the Lines”, the Freaky friday situation in “The Bear at the Bar”, and the sparkles in “River City”. Even my holiday tales have been affected. “A New Year” features an elf from Faerie, and last year’s Christmas tale “Wonderland” had both zombies and a post-apocalyptic Earth. But sometimes I just wanna go sweet. So this year, for the first time, I’ve penned a … Read more

Hearts on Fire - The Stark Divide review

Diane at Hearts on Fire gave The Stark Divide a five star rating: I fear that no matter how I write this review, I will not do this book justice, and part of me just wants to say wow, you should read this book!

POINT OF VIEW: Zombies in River City

October 30, 2017 by scott

Hey all, I am working my way through my consistency edit for “The River City Chronicles.” Yeah, I know, hobgoblin of little minds, and all that. But in a work of fiction, consistency is king. And in a serial story, it can be especially difficult to maintain, because a) it’s written over a relatively long period of time, and b) each chapter is published and essentially set in stone almost right away, so it’s harder to go back and fix things. And for me, c) I jumped into this too quickly, didn’t get a good head start, and took lousy … Read more

The End of River City. For Now.

October 26, 2017 by scott

Hey all… For the last two years, I’ve posted a new chapter of River City almost every single week. Haven’t read it yet? You can read the whole thing here: https://www.jscottcoatsworth.com/the-river-city-chronicles-english-version/ It started out as an experiment. Could I write a weekly serial and have a new chapter up for my readers every Thursday? I was inspired by Alex Woolfson and Adam DeKraker, who post a new page of “The Young Protectors” every week. But River City also started with secrets. Each character had one, and I intended to reveal them all by the end of the story. I expected … Read more
