In my new interview with author Khan Wong about his "speculative / literary cross-over" novel, "Down In The Sea Of Angels," he cites such disparate influences as David Mitchell's "Cloud Atlas" and the "X-Men" comics of Jonathan Hickman.

Genre can be tricky for some authors. Some embrace it, others feel shackled by it. And still others don't give a crap. And then there's West Ambrose, who, in this exclusive interview about his novel "The Last Boy On Earth," said, "Let's call it...Cosmic Love."

I am currently reading The Bodyguard by Katherine Center.

Hannah is tasked with protecting Superstar Jack from his stalker while he visits his sick mom. However, he does not want his sick mom to know that he may be in danger and asks Hannah to pretend to be his girlfriend.

So far, I find this book interesting and very easy to read.

Hey, did anyone else see that episode of "Behind The Music" in which a band's tour goes awry because of creatures from Irish folklore. No, wait, that's Randee Dawn's new urban fantasy novel "The Only Song Worth Singing," which she and I talk about in this exclusive interview.

In these terrible times, escaping to Mars is not an option. But it could be...one day. In my new interview with author Joe Mungo Reed about his speculative fiction / science fiction novel "Terrestrial History," he tells a multi-generational story about colonizing the red planet.

Some #witches use the term #necromancy broadly: communicating with Ancestors. Thus, the coven in my #solarpunk contemporary #fantasy THE WORKING are necromancers (as are Witches in general).

Hope you'll read it--as a reviewer said, the story is a blueprint for creating the futures we desire!
