Sci-fi and sci-fantasy share many things – but differ in key ways. At nearly 5 years old, in May of 1977, my parents took me to see a movie that would shape my life in a lot of different ways. The opening theme boomed, the famous text crawl scrolled up, and then a ship came flying in – blasting away at a bigger ship in pursuit. I am, by no stretch of the imagination, the
Our mindset, when it comes to working, is terribly skewed. I set a goal for myself to write a minimum of one blog post/article and 1500 words of fiction a day, six days a week.

How many competitions do we see on TV where you have 3 days to renovate a home or 30 minutes to cook a meal and the
This article explores how there is no One True Way to do virtually everything.
I continue writing – but is anyone reading, and does it matter? *Tap* *Tap* Is this thing on? Little of what I write is a one-off. With a couple of exceptions, I tend to write series. In the case of Void Incursion, I don’t believe anyone would be all that interested in reading a 1,100+ page, 350,000+ word sci-fi behemoth. Hence why, though it has been written as a single novel, I have been breaking
I have even more blogs for you to enjoy. Please visit my original blog website:
I post here twice weekly about my work with Positivity, Mindfulness, and Conscious Reality Creation. I’ve been blogging every week, without fail, since the beginning of 2012.
