They circled the Pharaoh’s daughter and the boy protecting her. His skill with the vibro-khopesh sword keeping the men at bay, she threw her royal Wadjet amulet at them. It unfurled into a robot cobra as assassins screamed and children ran for the Chariot shuttlecraft. #vss #sff

Outside, methane begins to freeze against the side of my crashed ship. Inside, the cats lie on me with unease. “It’s fine, Beans,” I say petting them. “It’s fine, Cornbread.” Twelve hours of life support remain. Distress call still unanswered. “It’s fine.” #vss #sff

He hasn’t noticed he’s been dead for six months. Unlike the others, I can see him working in his still vacant office. “Hey Boss, I brought you coffee,” I say putting a cup on a dusty desk. “Let’s take a break.” “There’s too much work.” “No. No, there isn’t.” #SciFanSat #vss #sff

He shakes the scout to his senses. “Sed quid existis videre?” “Monstra!” The centurion squints. “Elephanti?” “Non ita! Horribilis, spineta lacertos!” A horn blows as the primus pilus and his legion see the Iberians charge… riding giant, spike-tailed sauropods. #vss #sff

A horror illustration from the distorted perspective of a wide-angle entrance camera. A family in creepy masks carry bloodied weapons, some sporting sanguine stains on themselves as well, while the father knocks with the tip of his baseball bat on the door.

The dwarven engineer pats the triceratops with a metal hand. “We lost some bits, Bud.” He gets into the saddle behind the dinosaur’s new steel frill, and the paired machine guns that replace its horns. Reins and axe are lifted. “But now those orcs are gonna pay!” #vss #sff

We journey to the abandoned city. Between towers blackened by the inferno of war and settled half-sunken into the sea, my son finds artifacts and crafts his mother a necklace. “What happened here? To the ancestors?” my daughter asks. “Complacency,” I answer. #vss #sff

“Draconic Sorceress” The September #SciFanSat cover art I made for the new issue coming out this Saturday wasn’t designed with that role in mind. She started as a fantasy portrait crafted for fun, but then I took a shine to her punk-rebel vibe. #SFF #AmWritingScifi #AmWritingFantasy

A fantasy illustration of a draconic sorceress. She has human and dragon ancestry, with scales on her neck and left shoulder/arm. Her features are largely human elsewhere, except for yellow draconic eyes and the red scales around them that match her hair, then dissipate into freckle-like markings on her face. She smiles wearing a dragon-themed headpiece and revealing top.
