Great job!

Why do I write sci-fi? It's probably all those sci-fi books and media I consumed as a kid (and well beyond!)...

Hearing #scifibooks #readers are enjoying my #books is such an uplift, especially as I break 96k on the final book of the series. Got to keep the reader hooked!

The cover for A Taste of the Madness Vol. 9. The image is a gaseous filament nebula that is almost rainbow in color.

A Taste of the Madness Vol. 9, and the final volume is now available at books2read.com/u/4EqZyA

How Storytelling Style Shapes the Way the Brain Forms Memories - Neuroscience News The way an event is described—through feelings or sensory detail—changes how the brain stores and recalls it.

Book/science fact Fridays! The way an event is described through feelings or sensory details changes how the brain stores and recalls it. Interesting in thinking about how to make a story memorable.

Years after being tormented in middle and high school, I learned one of my bullies faced much worse at home. It's no excuse, but it did change my perspective, and it became a major theme in A VIOLENT MAN, the 3rd book of my #noir series on a generation ship. ⚡️📚💙 🪐📚 🚀

This square design has a variegated background of warm earth tones. It centers on a 3D mockup of an ebook version of “The Other Side of Fear,” by Jan S. Gephardt, in a white-e-reader frame. The words at the top say, “FREE EBOOK When you sign up for Jan S. Gephardt’s Newsletter.” Around the image of the book are six curly arrows that point to it from six descriptors: “Uplifted Dogs,” “Strong Female Protagonist,” “Hard Science Fiction,” “Humor,” “The Dog Does Not Die,” and “Space Adventure.” Under the ebook image is the Amazon reader rating of 4.5 with four and a half small red-orange stars. Below that a short review excerpt says, “’I really enjoyed this book . . . Loved the dogs; their personalities really shine.’ – Goodreads Review.” In the lower left corner is a QR Code labeled “NEWSLETTER.” Under that it says, “Cover art ©2020 by Lucy A. Synk.”

Oh, very nice, I love a good physical set 🤗

I’ve only got the first book on Kindle, so I am resolutely sticking to sampling it on there first. But you know what I’m like - I’ll probably end up joining you with a set of my own! 😆

This is a strong foundation for something much bigger—and I absolutely want the sequel. amazon.com/dp/B0FZVJ2N54/ #VolcanKnights #FantasyBooks #DarkFantasy #EpicFantasy #MustReadFantasy

Got a #bookreview in: 5/5*By NICK SNAPE.
A thrilling, rip-roaring sci-fi full of heart and adrenaline. Emperor’s Fall will suck you head-first and heart second into its page-turning gravity well. Unexpected events, to non-stop excitement and page-turning thrills. Love the plot twists. #scifibooks

Just been through the first draft of my #spaceopera #sciencefiction Butcher’s Folly audiobook. Ryan has nailed my new characters-even the aliens-and the empath twins’ development. A few tweaks and it’ll be ready to publish. All 6 books are booked in now! #scifibooks still got free codes. Want one?

👨‍💻 I’m a paperback boy at heart. So when I see some interesting sounding hypewagon for a new hardback edition 👇 I’ll add it to a special @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social wishlist.

Every now and then I check to see if there’s a 🇬🇧 paperback version due.

Today is that day.

📖 Having a good time with this one.

An aspect of the cover had me puzzled, but I now understand from the text what happened - despite it feeling brutally unfair.

Story skips along - years pass in chapters - information is sparse.
