We’re a third of the way through 2026 and racing through, so may the fourth be…
Nah, I’m not going to say it!
I’m still working on “REVOLT!” (sequel to “EXODUS” in the Destination Empire series). A couple of surgeries set me back over the winter but I’m catching up as the post-op pain fades.
I’ll be calling for beta readers soon and I include the blurb below.
Another distraction is the flood of promotion scams arriving daily. Offers of mailing list inclusions, Zoom calls to book-reading groups, etc., etc. and even a few folk posing as major publishers or famous authors or movie-makers. Other authors suffer the same frustration and wasted time. So a scammer sends multiple emails using different “From” addresses to a pirated mailing list containing 1,000 authors. If enough recipients pay the $200 or £500 fee in the hopes of selling more books, it sure beats working for a living.
Summary of “REVOLT!“…
Long before the first stellar empire, there was only the Homeworld.
The Earth: a pale blue dot in an as-yet unexplored galaxy.
175 years ago, humanity fled the failing Homeworld and AI warfare.
They colonized planets in the near galaxy.
There was peace between the colonial groupings for decades.
Then a military coup seizes the largest grouping and prepares for war.
Two space navy officers struggle with the conflicts of duty and morality.
They seek a a tertiary solution to the binary dilemma.
If they find one, will they survive, will they succeed?
And whatever you’re reading this week – ENJOY!
