Point of View: Trouble Right Here in River City

River City Chronicles

I’m about to embark on a brand new adventure, something that I as a writer have never done before. I’m going to write a serialized piece of fiction, a story that unfolds slowly and publicly week by week on my blog. And as if that weren’t enough of a challenge, I’m going to release each new episode simultaneously in both Italian and English. Several things have come together recently to make this possible: I started a new blog for myself as a writer in June, which needed content I published Between the Lines with Dreamspinner Press in July, a magical … Read more

Great New Review for The Homecoming

Just got a great review for The Homecoming from Mike Bode: “It’s a short book, and the pacing is brisk. Coatsworth never lingers too long on any one scene or topic and has an admirable talent for description. It’s a good read for a long afternoon with an engaging bread crumb trail of clues to lead you to a satisfying explanation for the story.” Woo hoo!!!

I’ve read nearly everything Coatsworth has written (I’m his number one fan, and I … Read more

Five Star Review for “The Homecoming”!

Melanie Marshall Blog

The heartbreak Aldiss feels at the loss of not only his home planet but his ex (even though he states there is nothing romantic between them anymore) is palpable. The hope of a new home world is quickly set back first by the crash landing and the dangers that caused but also with the troubles of Cat’s illness coming out of stasis. Add in the inter clan squabbles about what to … Read more

Two More Blog Tour Stops!

Lexi Ander

One for “The Homecoming” with the fabulous Lexi Ander: And the other a review of “Between the Lines by Molly Lolly: I enjoyed this story. I loved how Brad had to decide if he wanted to hear the true thoughts of people or not. It raises an interesting philosophical question as well. I liked how that decision was described in the story. I felt bad for Brad and how he was treated. At the same time, he stood up for himself and what he believes in. He didn’t just roll over and take it. I was glad Brad wound up … Read more
