Aliens Among Us?


The Ancient Astronaut Theorists say so. Aliens have always been here, and helped to shape our history.

I'm home sick today and for several hours I've been watching Ancient Aliens on the History channel. Sounds like an odd place for this type of programing, but not really. Projected theories, past, present and future abound in this show. It's the perfect show for someone like me. 

For instance, the moon is hollow. Aliens placed it in Earth's orbit for us. Yeah it's true. So the rhythmic motion of the moon on the Earth could have caused life to evolve here. Is the moon artificial-- is it a satellite and somewhat like the Death Star in Star Wars?

Here's another-- the missing link-- is it possible that an advanced culture from some distant solar system intervened in human evolution? Wild concepts, right?  But not so much if you have a Science Fiction brain! Here's one-- Are Angels (translated messengers) really ET extraterrestrial beings? Travelers from distant planets? For sure this stuff is fodder for a SF author

The Galaxy Express Features Erotic SFR and Forbidden Love!


News Flash: -- SF Signal a premier site/blog for Science Fiction has just picked up The Galaxy Express article featuring Forbidden Love... in the SF Tidbits section for August 11. (Scroll down to find it-- but hey-- it is there!)

What's happening today?

The Galaxy Express is discussing worldbuilding in SFR (Sci-Fi Romance) especially as it relates to erotic SFR. And guess what? They are featuring examples from FORBIDDEN LOVE as good worldbuilding! The post is up now. Heather Massey, the extraordinary keeper of The Galaxy Expess has fascinating concepts. She and I have had a few interesting conversations about worldbuilding and with her permission, I've shared some of our email talks in the comment section of  the TGE post:


In this case, it means do erotic SFR authors need to be more informed and research Science Fiction and know their stuff when it comes to writing SFR. To pique your interest, here is some of what I shared  in the comments from a private conversation with Heather Massey in an email:

Kaye: I emphasize woldbuilding so much when I write SFR or talk about it. I'm such a Sci-Fi girl from the get-go, so it was just natural for me to write in this genre.

Heather: I can be happy with a good-faith effort. It's the stories that seem as though the author just phoned it in that concern me. Like you said, why bother writing SFR at all if your heart's not in it?

Kaye: I have author friends (a few are erotic authors) who have mentioned they would like to write SFR. I say, well, do you love the genre? Do you immerse yourself in the books constantly and search for new releases, can you not wait for the next SF movie or TV show to air, do you love finding and researching scientific theories, and is your mind always creating 'strange new worlds'? Do you know the terminology? ETC.

Heather: Exactly. They don't have to be hardcore, just a fan on a regular basis. Because readers will know...

Fantastic topic! Stop by for a visit, read the post/comments and leave a comment of your own at

SFR

A time-honored Science Fiction Romance tradition...

The Galaxy Express features new releases by Science Fiction Romance (SFR) authors each month.

Since Forbidden Love  releases on
May 20 from Red Rose Publishing (RRP) my book will be listed on TGE! I am so excited about this.

Heather Massey is the esteemed ower of The Galaxy Express and a fierce promoter of the SFR genre. Stop by and check out the new SFR releases.

You'll also get a taste of the latest Forbidden Love blurb which is featured there for the first time. This listing should be up on TGE by (May 4) Tuesday evening.

In addition, I'm pleased to announce that I am officially listed on
The Galaxy Express as a 2010 SFR author! This is such an honor.
I feel like I'm among the greats. This authors' registry goes all the way back to the 1930's!

See you around the Galaxy! < < click to visit!
