Searching for Intelligent Science Fiction with Strong Female Leads
Yeah, I know, it’s been awhile. But no one noticed because since I forbade third-party sharing, including scraping my blog to train AI, it gets no notice. At least that’s my theory. For the record, this blog and all my writing are 100 percent by me, a human. So…what have I been up to? I’ve […]

Author Interview: Me Chatting about Endurance
Ha! Looks like I drafted this but never published it. So not “Last month” but actually in December, for I Heart SapphFic’s Reading Challenge week of Sci-Fi, I was interviewed about my novel Endurance. If you need a break from current events and would like to get away to another star system, check it out. […]
Revisiting Wishbone
Back in better days, mid-October, I got word that my novel Wishbone would be included in the I Heart SapphFic Reading Challenge for “Main Character in Uniform.” I was thrilled! I didn’t think about how I might feel this week. Knowing this was an election year, my emotions have ranged from hopeful optimism, to concern, […]

Tenacity Sneak Peek
Tenacity launches on June 4. You can preorder now on Amazon or, you know, wait and I’ll have links to other retailers like Bookshop.org, where, to be honest, I buy my print books that I can’t get locally. Tenacity is a sequel to Endurance. I’d like to think it stands alone, but just in case, […]
Free Story for Halloween
For the heck of it, here’s a freebie. It’s also in my collection, A Perfect Life and Other Stories. A Certain Moon Ann dusted shelves that were already dust-free, plumped previously plumped pillows, and ignored the disdainful look her cat gave her. She checked the clock for the fifth time in the last ten minutes. […]
Endurance Is a Winner!
In my first draft I buried the “lede,” so I’ll get it right out there: Endurance won a very nice Science Fiction/Fantasy award from the Golden Crown Literary Society. It comes with a very nice cash prize, too. I am, of course, thrilled. Endurance was also a finalist for the Ann Bannon Popular Choice award, […]
Happy Pride?
It’s June. Pride month. In the tradition of what goes around comes around, the whole thing as we all know by now, started with the Stonewall riots back in 1969. Tired of the constant police raids, patrons of the Stonewall Inn fought back. I was a kid then and years away from realizing my own […]
