23 skidoo

For you Wattpad persons. (Especially my LBI friends) From time to time I enter these Wattpad SciFriday competitions and this one was interesting. A 1500 word maximum short with a valentine day theme of androids getting mistakenly paired with humans. This short takes place on LBI, NJ and is titled, 23 skidoo.

I could use some love so click here and read my short – then vote.

Kulcin’s Law series now available on OffWorlders.com

EuropaScratchesWhat started as an exercise in writing, became a sci-fi series on OffWorlders.com – one that I began to really enjoy.  I was not sure where this was going, until Part III and the timely reading of a post on what life in the sub-ice oceans of Europa might be like.  You can view the series by going to OffWorlders.com, or clicking on the links below.

While on Offiworlders, enjoy other sci-fi authors contributing their talents to this upcoming popular sci-fi slice of the universe.

Q & A about Kulcin’s Law:

Q: Where did the name Kulcin’s Law come from?

A: I am embarrassed to say, but I saw a leading Yahoo post on Macaulay Culkin, and thought, What an odd name.  So I warped it into Kulcin’s Law.. yes, it’s true.  I needed a name and that seemed as good as any.

Q: Why did you start this series:

A:  Not often, getting long periods of time to write during the week, shorts are a great way to hone one’s skills.    I entered a one page sci-fi competition, on-line, that had to involve Jupiter’s moon Europa.   I had one reviewer say he wanted more, and that is all it took.

Q: Do you see this evolving into something more?

A: Probably, but it will need to stay a short story for now.  I have so many great ideas waiting for me, on the shelf,  but need to get out what I promised, Silversides.

Q: Where did the storyline idea come from?

A: This will sound like B.S, but I just start writing and the character leads me; sometimes into an alley with no perceivable way out and trouble a short distance behind.  “Well?  where do we go from here?”  the protagonist says to me– and that’s where I earn my keep.  “Seriously?  I was following you.”  at that point, we both turn to see trouble blocking the other end of the alley….. “You owe me one.” I say…..
