Incentives for posting for many bloggists is to inform or teach or promote something they’ve created. In this case, I’m here to make connections, and write about my writing. I also post tips for other writers to help them improve their game. However, I just heard a mentor, who has been in the fiction industry for many years, confirm what I’d suspected for awhile.
Blogs about fiction work don’t work! (If you write non-fiction, your blog is likely to be successful, which is why there are thousands of pages devoted to promoting that authors need a blog. Yeah, only if it is NON-fiction!)

I just discovered that one of my 90s friends has passed. Lucy Zinkiewicz (1968-2018) was an incredible force in Australian science fiction fandom. I had the privilege of sharing a few events with her. (Trivia: We also share the acknowledgements page in the Doctor Who Discontinuity Guide.) There seemed to be nothing she couldn’t do, and she set an amazing example for up-and-coming fans on how to participate in conventions, panels and how to make any fan experience worthwhile. She will be greatly missed.
A post could never really do justice in honouring anyone. Nothing less than an in-person sp ..read more

Okay, I’m sure you’re saying, tell me something I don’t know.
Well, maybe my reason is different to yours. For years now I’ve been wanting a futuristic science fiction adventure that is, well, in the future. Not since Bablyon 5, Farscape and Battlestar Galactica have we had a space opera that really invests in the futuristic tech idea. You know, physics, chemistry and science, extrapolated several hundred or thousands of years hence, or in the present but with aliens who have tech far more advanced, or featuring an ..read more

If you ever wanted to know what happened to Atlantis 12,805 years ago, watch Greenland!
Here’s the trailer
That is all.
Well, one more thing. Possible extinction event May 2022, but low odds at the moment. The asteroid is being tracked by NASA so we will get updates closer to the time, much like this movie!

One of the things I most enjoy about writing science fiction is having the entire universe to play in and to be able to predict possible futures. With an infinite number of futures available why would anyone want to stay in the present? I’m rarely in the now. Usually my head is somewhere between 2030 and 2050 in day to day life, and hundreds to thousands of years in the future when I’m writing.
In 1983 I said, “I’m not buying a car until electric ones are affordable.” Everyone said “Come on, no one is interested in electric cars. It’ll never happen.” Now we have electric cars. I still haven ..read more

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait
By Neil A. Hogan
I don’t mind waiting. What’s a few more years when I’ve been
around for thousands? Though, I must say, this is incredibly boring. Just
sitting here, waiting for somebody advanced enough, evolved enough, peaceful
enough, to come. I’ve been waiting a long time for you to reach this kind of
advancement. I know you’ll find me. I just have to wait a little longer. But
most of you don’t even know I exist.
I’ve told this story in so many different ways to get your attention,
but you still haven’t really developed your telepathy that well, h ..read more

So, I’ve taken a break from Science Fiction Weekly for awhile. This weekend was spent working on both Fantasy Short Stories Book Four and Alien Dimensions #19, as well as a short story that has been running around in my head for awhile. I’ll make a separate post for it soon.
Yes, finally back to writing. It feels great! But a bit difficult to keeping ploughing on with when there’re bushfires, flooding, a coronavirus, and other personal issues happening.
For those freaking out about the coronavirus, just to put things in perspective, Malaria kills half a million people every year. If we’r ..read more
