I'm a new writer of science fiction and adventure tales. I also make occasional forays into fantasy and realistic fiction. I love post-apocalyptic settings, utopias and dystopias, coming-of-age stories, and stories about underdogs struggling against the machine.

The end, and other stories

I wrote the end of Sweet Heart Catalyst yesterday! Now all I have to do is write the, ahem, pesky middle part ;)

But before I do that, I have to finish up that shortie about my bad guy who’s bad, bad, bad, and how he got that way. It’s about 1700 words so far. For now, the working title is Sergio after the main character, but I hope I can come up with something that sounds a little more badass. (Side note: I apparently really like the name “Sergio”; I just realized that I also have a “Sergei” in another, unrelated story.)

Short stories Encounter on Planet 352 and Desert Walker are temporarily on the back burner.

I recently discovered She Writes, a site for, by and about women writers (thanks to my friend Kat for the heads-up!) It’s a great resource with an active community of writers. I’d like to encourage all you writer folks on my list to join me there. (Men are welcome too, though the site is female-focused).

I had to write an intro blurb for one of the groups I joined on SW, and one of the questions was about our current WIP. So it forced me to think about just what the frell this thing is that I’m writing, anyway. Here’s what I came up with: “A twisted mutant hybrid of near-future biopunk-ish science fiction and political/crime thriller”. Heheh! … although I forgot to add, “with a delicious coating of dark chocolate”.
