AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: Kethric Wilcox

by
Kethric Wilcox

Welcome to my weekly Author Spotlight. I’ve asked a bunch of my author friends to answer a set of interview questions, and to share their latest work. Today, Kethric Wilcox – Kethric began writing and publishing as a personal challenge to be creative in a new medium. He was attracted to the LGBT Romance genre after reading several paranormal romances where it seemed like the shape-shifters never faced dangers outside the relationship issues thrown at them by their authors. Thus was born the shifter hunting House of Beauty on the premise of a twisted fairy tale. Thanks so much, Kethric, … Read more

New Amazing Review for “Lander”

by
Lander Cover

I just got the most fricking amazing review for “Lander” from Amy Leibowitz Mitchell:   “All in all, this was a fantastic read. I’m definitely going to pick up the first book before the third one is out so I can have everything sorted about the plot. I can’t wait to see where this goes next time. For gender equality, excellent world-building, pacing, and plot, and a fantastic sequel that can be read on its own, this gets 10/10 fountain pens.”   OMG. 🙂   http://amleibowitz.com/2018/02/21/review-lander-by-j-scott-coatsworth/   Have you gotten your copy yet?

POINT OF VIEW: Looking Forward

by
The Nether

We have a great local theater here called the Capital Stage that often puts on speculative fiction plays. Their 2018 season, in fact, is called “Future Tense.” We just went to see the latest, a dark play called “The Nether,” by Jennifer Haley. The nether is sort of a bleak futuristic version of the dark web plus the internet, a virtual playground where more and more folks are spending the majority of their lives, or even becoming “shades” – people who are hooked up to life support in the real world so they can spend all of their time in … Read more

POINT OF VIEW: Connected

by
Joyce Peterson

Today would have been Joyce Peterson’s 100th Birthday. Joyce was my grandmother on my mother’s side, and she passed away six years ago at the age of 94. She was an amazing woman, gifted and beautiful. I always thought she looked a little like Cabbot Cove’s Jessica Fletcher, but unlike Angela Lansbury’s most famous character, she didn’t leave a path of dead bodies and mystery in her wake. What she did leave was a legacy. My grandmother was a very creative person, like much of my family. She painted and sketched and made all kinds of art – her hand … Read more

Lander-meme-03

Some more reviews coming in for Lander, and OMG they are making me cry: “Yes, it’s beautifully written. But it’s more than that. It’s vast. It’s huge on every scale you can think to rate a story. It hits home emotionally, it’s suspenseful, it grabs at you intellectually, keeps you thinking about all the possibilities that may lie in store, and yes, makes you anxiously await the final chapter… What joy!” —Melanie, Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words “‘Lander’ is the fantastic second novel in the ‘Oberon Cycle’ series… an explosive story that held my attention from the first page and … Read more

It’s release day for “Lander,” and the reviews are starting to come in. I’m thrilled!” “I’m not sure I can do justice to this book with a mere review, but I’ll try.
