A COVID-19 check-in and update


Hello all,

How is your COVID-19 social distancing situation?
I've been so focused on meeting two publishing deadlines that it's likely I've not been as aware of the situation as you have, although the view from my writing window is simply gorgeous!
What does your WFH (work from home) environment look like?



My heart bleeds for those tireless heroes in the medical field, battling this disease on the front lines, risking their own health in conditions of utter exhaustion that clearly compromises their own immune systems while they desperately try to shore up the immunities of those patients under their care.

There are many, many unsung heroes out there as well: the ones working hard to restock shelves, those driving supplies across country. The pilots risking exposure to ferry medical teams into heavily impacted areas, where they're needed most.

I know it's challenging for those who must stay at home, too. It's frustrating and lonely for those who must remain separated from loved ones. We're stuck inside our homes, learning how to adjust to the current situation.

If you fall into the latter category and are going a bit stir-crazy — and you've binge watched everything Netflix has to offer — did you know Amazon was offering a free two-month trial of their Kindle Unlimited service?
It allows you to read a library of newly-published books across all genres...absolutely free.



All seven of my books are there, and my upcoming Biogenesis War trilogy will be there, as well, once published.

It's well worth the time to see if it might be a good fit for you.

Be well, stay safe, all of you.

<3

Interested in exploring other stars?

The Enfield Genesis series visits the binary star systems of Alpha Centauri and Sirius, as well as Tau Ceti, Epsilon Eridani, and the red dwarf of Proxima.

Each of these star systems has been the subject of decades-long study, and there’s a wealth of scientific observation available on them. That data has been woven into each book, as an integral part of the story arc.



The entire series is free in KU, or you can purchase the first book,
Alpha Centauri for 99¢ by clicking this link.

Two Jethros, A Jim Brown, and an Ella Fitzgerald

What the what?!? If you're a fan of the Big Heist, you might recognize the reference. If you're not, no worries; we've got your decoder ring right here. The subject line's from the movie, Ocean's Eleven . In one of the key scenes of the movie, George Clooney tries to sell Brad Pitt on a casino heist. When he asks Brad what he thinks it'll take to pull a job like that, Brad's famous rejoinder is: "off the top of my head, I'd say you're looking at a Boesky, a Jim Brown, a Miss Daisy, two Jethros and a Leon Spinks, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald ever." Okay, but what does this have to do with Aeon 14 and the next Enfield Genesis book? Turns out that Shannon's a big fan of old-Earth 2D vids, especially ones like Ocean's Eleven, Inside Man, A Fish Called Wanda, and The Usual Suspects. Good thing, too. Because all of her expertise with the con game will serve her well as she embarks on her first field miss...

The view as I write

Just a little peek inside my writing studio (and what I'm working on, too!). Proxima Centauri will be out in a few weeks. It releases on August 16th, and you can pre-order it on Amazon today ! Behind my monitor, you see three shots I took of the solar eclipse from August, 2017. Closeups of those three shots -- sunspots, solar prominences and then the diamond ring effect -- are below. And here's the camera that took those gorgeous photos: my trusty Nikon D750. Love that thing! On that day, I used a 200mm prime with a 2x teleconverter. And, of course, the solar filter to keep from frying one of my favorite toys. We flew out to a few airports along the way to scout the perfect location. Yes, that actually is  a roll of paper towels behind my head. And if I look hot—well, I was. It was in the high 90s that day. The view on our way back was spectacular. Loved the reflection of the sun and clouds in the winding river below. Happy reading, and ...
