Thank you for visiting me through Science Fiction Romance Brigade’s Presents! I’m pleased to share a snippet from my SFR, Passages. Quinn, the hero, is also getting used to having—and placating—his bodyguard, an emotional woman only somewhat suited for the job. I handed Taior his copy and shook his hand. “As promised we’ll do […]
Thank you for stopping by to check out my snippet from Passages, my science fiction romance…which may need a genre label shift. SF also stands for ‘speculative fiction,’ right? Seems my novel might fall into the ‘science fantasy’ genre. Still looking into it. Anyhow, here we go: Quinn has never experienced small town life before, […]
Another week, another bit of Passages, my science fiction romance. When Quinn finally finds his missing ‘brother’, he discovers those memories of their fights weren’t exaggerated. Eve is afraid she might have to put her bodyguard function to use. “That’s not the only detail you left out,” Quil snapped. “Why wasn’t I told the Cavvert […]
I’m guilty of a gap in postings. *sigh* But I’m back again with another excerpt of my science fiction romance. My hero Quinn discovers his new bodyguard Eve is not a happy camper when he disappears before she’s had her coffee. I’d gone to the sideboard to pour a second cup when the door swung […]
In the opening scenes of my science fiction romance, Passages, the hero, Quinn has no idea the woman he thinks is his grandmother is actually an electorg. Eve, the heroine, is the unlucky one to discover the masquerade, and tell Quinn. I slid a fingernail under one crusty end and lifted. The scab moved, exposing—“Wires. […]
Hello and welcome to my SFR contribution, a snippet from my novel Passages. Just as in real life, some science fiction machinery never works like you think it ought to, which my hero Quinn discovers in this excerpt: I passed the packed shelves and glanced at the book bindings. Some titles stood out. A few […]
Thanks for stopping by one of Science Fiction Romance Brigade’s weekly peeks into the SFR genre. In this installment from my science fiction romance Passages, the hero Quinn receives a surprise from one of his newly converted guards. I cracked the door. Noise came from below. Palming my knife, I crept down the stairs. A […]
Welcome to my website and my science fiction romance snippet. Several readers commented on my electorgs—thank you!—so I thought I’d give another peek into those electronic bodies. Here’s a piece from Eve’s point of view. “Then you know your way around from here?” Quinn’s voice resonated right behind me, deeper, steadier than before. His heat […]
For my Six Sentence Sundays I shared any snippet that appealed to me. Yet, for SFR Presents, I feel like it has to be sciency. So… In the early chapters of my story Passages, Quinn has forgotten all the apparatus available to an electorg. “No.” I moved back to the map. “And these numbers are […]
I’m here a day early! This week I’ve joined a small but growing weekly post group that’s very much in my corner of the universe—Science Fiction Romance Brigade Presents. I’ve been an *cough* inactive member of the SFR Brigade for a few years, but I do write SFR, a genre mash-up that walks the border […]
