I love Firefly, it's one of my all time favourite shows.
But I'm worried given the horrifically bad state of entertainment these past few years. I really, really, REALLY hope this isn't what I hope it is. As much as I'd love to see more Firefly, I'd rather it remain as is. Untainted.
Nothing in my sales reports ... hmmm, I'm worried. Out of curiosity, where did you get it through?
Book sales so far this year: 0
This includes one person who said they bought my book in February.
Yeah. Things are going great.
We had 4 or 5 days straight of rain (very unusual in my part of the world). The cat, who normally rushes inside at just a drop of rain was so fed up that she went outside and just sat in it for like an hour. Came inside after drenched to the bone xD
Oooh, also, I'm an autistic author, so naturally, most of my characters are also autistic, by default. So if you like that kind of thing. Woot!
If you like Terry Pratchett and fantasy that tries to create new things, then you might like this. Give it a go (And please review)
Oooh no, I'm late for my once a month promo time (again) ... so here it is!
Telana REALLY wants to go out and explore the unknown world ... but first, she must go to school. A bit hard when girls don't go to the higher schools, but she's not about to let that stop her.

RIP Rob Grant. You helped this cranky teenager laugh ... a lot.
*Rimmer Salute
** I tried to find the special Rimmer Salute, but alas, there was no Gif. This is a heinous crime
you know what they say. Ninth time lucky.
Dedication page from Larry Niven's Ringworld book. Second paragraph reads "A man in Washington, D.C., sent me a full proofreading job on the first edition of Ringworld, with the title "The Niven-McArthur Papers, Vol. I." It was of enormous help to me. (if you own a first paperback edition of Ringworld, it's the one with the mistakes in it. It's worth money.)
My dad sent this to me. How comforting it is to see from such a prominent, old school author.
And also why I love it when people message me about mistakes they find. Every correction is an improvement, And I appreciate it so much!
lol. It reordered 0.01 ... woohoo
Just spent an hour dictating into the headphones, only to realise that the voice recorder crashed. I don't know when.
I'm tired of this computer, and all its Microsoft bloatware making it impossible to us :(
I really got to do a video on my super awesome, and completely correct (/s) physics theory. Because more and more stuff coming out that fits in with it.
If only I could get my computer to stop crashing every time I work on anything more taxing than a word document.

Xennials confuse them. They don't know what to do with us. Then again, neither do we.
Look, I know my writing is a bit shit. I info dump too much, I head hop deliberately, I write autistic characters that nobody wants to read. But I don't need it to be AI level bad, okay? That's too low even for me.
First play through of Babylon 5 and just came across this gem

Some good news. I've finally sat down to write. I got over a 1000 words down. First time in (a) month(s?)
Though, the bad news is I'm still a bit stuck in the story. I got all the main events plotted. But there's stuff in-between that just refuses cooperate. Characters not contributing.
Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus!
In real life I'm boring, slow, and not very funny.
But writing makes me seem cooler than I am.
So, read The Skyship of Truskal, and you too can be fooled into false sense of awesomeness. Also, cause I need sales and reviews.

taken back despite it. Because the difference is, women were mostly absent from other books. In this, they were treated less then human. That's the difference. I can easily read an old book by a man, writing men, focused on ideas. Degrading women on the other hand. That's another thing.
Mate, my bookshelves are full of golden age scifi. As a woman I fkn know it's a product of it's time. Only men noticed these things after the fact. We always went into them knowing what to expect. And I was STILL
I read Bradbury's Martian Chronicles for the first time last year and was horrified at how sexist it was. I can't fathom why people would still praise it (or at least say "this part sucks, but these parts are worth reading")
Both were from a sexist time, but at least Asimov gave us Susan Calvin.
Did Nan's phone somehow hijack my Mum's and pull my number to call? And is it just coincidence that it happened to be the same numbers in the same room (me and my sister's). Did proximity signal somehow get mixed up and crossed all our wires?
I'm oddly unsettled by this.
automatically accepted my sister's call. And at the exact same time my Nanna ended up calling me. We all stood there for a few seconds confused AF.
What makes it weirder is that Nan and I don't have each other numbers (I don't use my phone as a phone, lol).
I'm sitting here completely stumped.
I just had the weirdest phone gremlin moment and I can't comprehend how it happened.
My mum tried to call my sister a little earlier. But she missed it. So my sister tried to call my mum back.
But my mum was talking to my Nanna at that moment. The call kicked my mum off the phone with Nan and
Thank you. It is appreciated <3
1st of the month promo time.
I've only managed to sell 2 copies of the Skyship of Truskal in 3 months. And it's getting me down a bit.
So, if you like fantasy stories focused on a ND kiddo, in the spirit of Terry Pratchett, then you might like my book. Give it a shot!
