Any of you scifi writers want to get together on some cross promotion?
What have you got in mind? I've done some cross promotion in the past and I'm not sure the time was well spent. Not that I wouldn't try something again, it just depends on what that is.
 
Well, my debut novel is complete and up on Amazon (and in KU). I browse KBoards a bit since I've joined, but as there's little time, I spend what's not marketing/writing with just a bit of reading. Hope you're ready to enjoy spring (if you're in the northern hemisphere - the crispness of autumn otherwise)! While 'Fall to Earth' is Sci-Fi, it's near/alternate future with a mix of mythology. I hope people find it compelling!

Back to writing the sequel!

I'm glad to see the thread I started several years ago is alive and well. Thanks to everyone participating.
 
Though I work mostly in other genres, I started out as first a science fiction fan and then a science fiction writer, and have kept on turning out such stories down the last few decades, for magazines like Isaac Asimov's SF and Midnight Street.

And now here are the best of them collected in one eBook ... and at an Introductory Offer price too.

 
I just joined kboards yesterday, don't know why it took me so long to discover this resource.  Great to see a thread full of fellow Science Fiction writers to get to know.  As for me, I've completed one series (five books) of military scifi, started a second spinoff series in the same vein, and have also written one dystopian novel.  My latest book (Confidence Game) is straight up space opera in my same galaxy, about a smuggler and a stolen cargo ship.  They're all in my signature.

Nice to meet everyone!
 
I published my first novella - it was originally supposed to be a bunch of short stories, to act as a backstory to my novel series - in April. Currently about a fifth of the way through the first book - I've written a fair bit of it in the last few days, punching above 26000 words last night

It's been a long time since someone posted on this thread, and since I'm the one who stared it, I thought I'd see if anyone is interested in it. if you have a sci fi book you'd like to promote, drop it here.
 
Okay, near future sci-fi novel that addresses the dying oceans.
Genetically modified humans are turned into Shepherds who with the help of trained dolphins herd schools of tuna in the open ocean.
Olga is such a shepherd but not everyone likes these "mutants" and now someone is killing them.
How will she survive?

Currently on sale


 
Hi everyone! I'm currently running a pre-order Kickstarter for my third superhero novel DIE FAMOUS - get the Kindle and print copies before it is launched on Amazon.

It is the sequel to POWERLESS and KILLING GODS and is set in Element City, a fictional city where people with extraordinary abilities live and work in a present day version of England that bans them from using their powers in public and monitors them for life.

The blurb:
Ruth doesn't want to be famous, she just wants to be seen and accepted for who she is. And she is prepared to defy her father to take part in a Hero talent show to create a new team for Element City.

However she doesn't count on a team of villains from the 1970s waking themselves up in order to bring Havoc to the present day. Neither do Martin and Hayley, who inadvertently stumble upon their plot and find themselves risking their lives to save the villain's ultimate target: the TV show's contestants.
 
Hello!

I am a new science fiction writer and I just uploaded 3 short stories to Amazon.  I am very new to all of this and want to start off on the right foot. It is a pleasure to meet you all.

My favorite science fiction (author period) is Ray Bradbury. 

I consider him to be the grandmaster of the short story and think that Fahrenheit 451, often overshadows what I consider to be his true greatness.

Pick any of his collections:  The Illustrated Man, R is for Rocket, The Golden Apples of the Sun and you are sure to find gems within.

Happy reading and writing.

I'm currently reading Wind Up Girl.

Be Well

D. Roman
