Fighting Talk

Noticing how slow you are to go to the polls dear readers, my WIPs wish to state their arguments for publication one last time before voting ends.  So here they are, speaking for themselves. When you've made up your mind please cast your vote in the poll in the sidebar.



Hi there
My name is THE WITCH ADOPTION PROJECT and I'm a WIP sitting in a folder on Rae's laptop. I want more out of life. I don't want to stay a draft forever more. I want to be published.

So I'm appealing to you dear followers to support my cause and vote for me. Yes I'm young. Yes I'm precocious. But age is only good for wine and cheese. I'm neither.
The rest is now up to you. You know what you have to do.



So folks
The young upstart makes some interesting comments but I'd like to stop you in your tracks. What you want to be doing is voting for me.

It's simple really, I'm the final instalment in a trilogy so you know that means I'm going to be one heck of a read. Besides, I'm SciFi and that cheeky young thing is merely Fantasy. We all know I'm the better genre. So get those voting fingers going. You know it's the right thing to do.

    On my facebook page WHEN RAINBOWS DARE is currently in the lead by only 7 votes so if you want the precocious little upstart to win you'd better vote for her folks.

    The WIPs are really duking it out right now. The WITCH ADOPTION PROJECT has jumped into the lead on my facebook page. She currently has 214 votes while WHEN RAINBOWS DARE is lagging behind with only 209. I wonder what the voting count will be by the end of the day.

    The cheeky young thing is currently in the lead by 13 points on my facebook page. If you're a SciFi fan you'd better start voting for WHEN RAINBOWS DARES before it's too late.

    On my facebook page the young pretender is still in the lead with 316 vote and the Scifi teenager lagging behind at 292. But this thing's not over till it's over. There are still 13 days of voting time left. Let those fingers do the talking folks!

    As of this morning Little Miss Fantasy Thang is 31 votes ahead of young Mr Scifi. If you're a lover of scifi you'd better get those voting fingers working a lot harder than they currently are or fantasy's gonna walk it to the printers. You've got till the end of Feb to make your mark you Scifi lovers.

Faetaera: A Triumvirate

  A Triumvirate Brairton’s minions slipped through a barely noticeable fissure.  The tear would close shortly.  Despite the increase in their regularity the breaches rarely stayed open very long.  To the three insidious spies, the stink of the new world was almost unbearable.  But in time the triumvirate would each become so used to it they would scarcely notice it at all.  That it poisoned them they did not know.  Brairton was not in the habit of informing his operatives of fatal consequences.  Their programming precluded any thought beyond the mission they must complete.  In this Brairton had been exact and had performed the necessary rituals himself. Each had their mission branded into their being.   They would travel together for some time but then slip off to their secret destinations one by one, never to see each other again. The threesome latched on to their individual targets and began their particular brand of individual mis...

#Indie Intro

#Review: RED DESERT by Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli 4 Star reading I must confess a certain attraction to the inhospitable red planet ever since I saw Total Recall . The Arnie version of course. There simply is no other. As many of you know, I’ve even squeezed a mention of Mars into my very own little eco SciFi number. So I was delighted to come across this translation of Deserto Rosso. It is written in diary format from the perspective of Anna Persson, an astronaut landed on Mars together with several colleagues. Together they are hoping to set up a primary colony. The opening is dramatic as use of the present tense and the narrator’s situation draws the reader in. The story line switches between events on Mars and flashbacks, in the past tense, in which we learn a great deal of backstory. I found these details and the relationships Anna has with other characters very engaging. I wanted to read on and in fact finished the book in only 4 sittings. Anna's compl...

Guest Post: Creative Recharge

Lindsay Bamfield started writing fiction about 10 years ago. She has written a number of short stories and flash fiction pieces and has been published in Greenacre Writers Anthology , Voices from the Web 2012, The Best of Café Lit 2012, Mslexia, Writers’ News and Writing Magazine.  She has won prizes in Writers’ News , Writing Magazine and Words with Jam competitions and has been shortlisted in others. She is currently re-working her first novel with advice from an editor and has a second novel on the back-burner.  How do I recharge my writing batteries? I’m not sure I’m the right person to answer this as my batteries are still somewhat depleted after illness and debilitating treatment, but my writing activity, although still less than ideal has bounced back to some extent. It was only after being ill that I understood just how much energy writing requires. Exhaustion does not engender creativity. After a frustrating dry-spell when I wanted to writ...
