Well here I go again! I just finished Rave Girl: Change My Mind , and I've already started on a new sci-fi / fantasy web novel, Protostar: Error in Transmission . This is my first foray into this arena, but I'm hoping it'll have some benefits. First off, this book is currently free to read! So click the link above or the book cover below, and have at it. Second, this book is incomplete. Only chapter one is done, and I'll upload the rest as soon as I'm done writing each one.

It took me about two years (very on and off) to finish this one, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. So if you enjoy fast paced action / adventure sci-fi with a large helping of humor / comedy, then you're gonna enjoy this! Below is a synopsis and the book cover (which I designed using Blender 3D and finished up with GIMP). Give it a try and leave me some feedback, or better yet, a review. Us indy authors need all the help we can get with the exposure. Synopsis: Allegra could never have imagined how different, how extraordinary, her life would become, just by being in the right place at the right time after a rave. Who could’ve thought that after a long day of dancing and euphoria, she’d end up saving the life of an extra-terrestrial? Or did her ET bestie, Kay’k, save her? After y
