Stories of Science and Spirit
Do you love science fiction, word worlds of the imagined future or alternate realms? What about stories with portal entries to parallel universes? These elements are parts of my favorite books, too.
Currently, I’m favoring stories of imagined futures containing advanced concepts of science and technology. I often wonder how life will be for those living one hundred and fifty years from now, which is why I have written my book, The Resurrection of SJ.
A story of medical potential, the bravery of honesty, and the consequences of deception.
How far would you go to succeed?
In 2175, a scientist partners with her famous new boyfriend in exchange for lab funding and the lead role on the resurrection team.
Her relationship becomes dangerous when she discovers his real identity and plot to expand his dark realm with each body she resurrects. Her dream comes apart as she risks her work and life to sabotage his plan.
Growing up, I was exposed to many story genres, beginning with Bible stories and British fairy tales, all read aloud to me by my parents. We progressed to The Wind in the Willows, The Borrowers, Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins, and The Phantom Tollbooth. In older school grades I discovered A Wrinkle in Time, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Hobbit, Fahrenheit 451, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and other exciting tales.
Then came real life, and my reading material transitioned to medical textbooks as I studied for my RN degree. All the while though, as I read my anatomy text and studied the life activity of cells, I imagined—What if?
Now I get to write the “what ifs” of science and society I imagined.
I hope you enjoy my books.
