I often doubt whether I should really classify my WiP as science fiction – it absolutely is, technically, but I don’t really get into a lot of the tropes. I feel like from a marketing standpoint, I would let down a lot of the expectations that the most dedicated sci fi readers would be looking for.

My plot is largely literary, and I’ve also been…[Read more]

It’s about a 1870’s Boston socialite, Kate MacGregor, who runs away to escape a forced marriage. She ends up in a small town in the New Mexico Territory, where she faces danger and…[Read more]
