Five Stars for Skythane from Anne Barwell

by
Skythane

More Skythane reviews are rolling in: The great Anne Barwell gives Skythane five stars: “I love science fiction and have been reading it for years, and I think Skythane is a great addition to the genre. The world building is detailed, not just with the descriptions of the world, but in its rich history. I felt as though I was stepping into a fully formed world when I began reading… Although Skythane gives them a satisfying HFN, and brings this part of the story to a close, it is far from over, and I really hope there will be a … Read more

Point of View: Informed and Overwhelmed

by
Scott

Have you ever gone to a really good con or retreat, and when it’s over, your brain is so stuffed full of information that you think it’s gonna burst? I just got back from the 2017 Dreamspinner Retreat. It was an amazing experience – I can still see the look of stunned amazement on Elizabeth’s face when she was presented with this beautiful painting by Paul Richmond celebrating how her vision for Dreamspinner rippled through the queer romance world: And the networking was fantastic, not to mention just having the chance to hang with old friends and make new ones. … Read more

Skythane Gets a Date!

by

Hey guys, So excited to announce the date for the release of my first full-length novel, Skythane – the first book in the Oberon trilogy: Jameson Havercamp, a psych from a conservative religious colony, has come to Oberon—unique among the Common Worlds—in search of a rare substance called pith. He’s guided through the wilds on his quest by Xander Kinnison, a handsome, cocky wing man with a troubled past. Neither knows that Oberon is facing imminent destruction. Even as the world starts to fall apart around them, they have no idea what’s coming—or the bond that will develop between them as they … Read more

Point of View: Taking a (Little) Break

by
Scott - Break

Hey all, On Saturday, I sent “Liminal Sky”, my second novel, off to the publisher – a story that’s been in the works for three years. Then I sat down, closed my eyes, and took a deep breath. I have been running almost non-stop with my writing for months, as I have been struggling to finish and submit two novellas and a novel, dealing with edits for one of the novellas and an entirely separate novel, and running a blog tour too. Suddenly, it’s all done. It’s like the clouds have cleared, and it’s blue skies all the way, baby. In three days, Mark … Read more

Point of View: After the Con

by
Scott Predictions

OK, so GRL 2016 (Kansas City) is officially over. Time to look back over my pre-con predictions: 1) The Dancing Bear: There was no dancing bear (though there was a dancing Cowardly Lion – who knew Steve Zimmerman was so furry?). There were also dancing flying monkeys, fancing witches, and a handsome dancing tin man. Prediction Rating: 2 out of 5. 2) The Smores Bar: There was no smores bar, though there was a fairly good buffet on the last night, and the Grease movie night featured a fair selection of candy and some great pop corn, including Hershey bars, … Read more

Author Spotlight: Julie Lynn Hayes

by
Julie Lynn Hayes

Welcome to my weekly Author Spotlight. I’ve asked a bunch of my author friends to answer a set of interview questions, and to share their latest work. Today, Julie Lynn Hayes – Julie Lynn Hayes first began publishing short stories and poetry in the 1990’s, when it was a different ballgame altogether, and Ebooks hadn’t been dreamed of yet. That changed in 2010 with the acceptance of her first romance novel. She’s come a long way since that first book appeared, and is finding the journey a very educational one. Thanks so much, Julie, for joining me! J. Scott Coatsworth: … Read more

Point of View: I Am Wallowing

by
Wallow

As an author, sometimes you have a really good week. You have a new book come out, you get great reviews, and you actually have both the time to write and the inspiration to do so. Sometimes, things just suck, and you wallow. This last week was supposed to be a banner week for me. I have a new release, part of an anthology, and it’s getting really good reviews. And yet, I find myself in the middle of an existential writer crisis. It’s not any one big thing, and not even a couple medium-sized things. Instead it’s a bunch … Read more

Point of View: What I’m Working On

by
Oberon

Hey all, I’m involved in a bunch of projects at the moment, so I thought I’d share them with you, so you know what to expect from me over the next year or so. Currently, I am writing madly on a new novella tentatively titled “The Great North”, about life in 500 years in central and northern Canada. It’s a sci fi story with a bit of a fantasy feel, and I’m enjoying writing it immensely. I’m also working on more chapters for “The River City Chronicles” and for my other serial project, “Marionettes in the Mist“. I’m also wrapping … Read more
