Someday I will live in a city that doesn't smell of piss, exhaust and cigarettes. And if not me, I hope my daughters do.

admittedly, there are problems with the basic premise, since the crucification and resurrection is central to Christian faith.

Scrambling madly for every discarded morsel and wayward crumb, they disperse frantically under the advance of every maniacally gesticulating toddler.

Is it worth trying to reclaim the word “prompt” as a non-ai cue for writing, or should we just start using “cue”?

Even though the scream of power tools had yet to accost the valley, the cool morning breeze carried the unmistakable odors of embedded sweat and stale tobacco. Work was about to commence.

Now I only have the memories of our future conversations to look back on." From “Tempus Contra”. One of the short stories included in my upcoming collection. #atwcsfh 📚💙 📚🤏🏼

Time is an illusion. The last day of the #NarratessIndieSale, doubly so. Waiting for no-one, the day is fast speeding to its end, taking with it hundreds of discounted books (including FROM THE GRAVE OF THE GODS) into the fog of memory. Better grab them while you have the chance: indiebook.sale 1/2

Banner for the Narratess Indie Book Sale. A chonky dragon reads a book at the bottom, a pile of skulls with a candle and ghost sit on the left of the text, and a space ship flies by a planet on the right of the text. The text reads:

Indie Book Sale.
indiebook.sale
Fantasy, sci fi & horror
29 - 31 August

Banner designed by Arden Powell.

Book cover of From the Grave of the Gods next to blurb text which reads: The shock discovery of a derelict alien warship on Mars spells disaster for the expedition and changes CMDR James Fowler's life forever.
