Stop Getting Fantasy Advice for Your Science Fiction Novel
One of the strangest things about being a science fiction writer is that we're constantly told to join "writing communities."
Which sounds great.
Until you realize most of them are built around fantasy, romance, or general fiction.
You ask a question about AI ethics. Someone tells you to add more magic.
You ask about interstellar politics. Someone suggests a chosen one prophecy.
You ask about military command structure aboard a starship. Someone recommends a love triangle.
Science fiction deserves its own space.
A place where people understand worldbuilding as systems, technology as consequence, and stories that ask "what if?" instead of "once upon a time."
That's Space Authors.
A community for science fiction writers focused on: Storytelling. Worldbuilding. Narrative Architecture. Live Writing Sessions. Serious Craft Discussions. Live Editor Q&As. Feedback at the scene level... and more.
If you're writing science fiction and you've been wishing there was a place built specifically for us... You're not alone.
Launch is coming soon.

Book Coaching
Most unfinished novels don’t fail because the idea was bad. They fail because the structure couldn’t support the story.
That’s why I created Story Blueprints — book coaching for genre fiction writers who want to build stronger stories from the ground up.
I help writers develop: • Narrative Architecture • character arcs • plot cohesion • pacing & escalation • sustainable drafting systems
Before the prose. Before the overwhelm. Build the Narrative Architecture first.
Story Blueprints offers personalized book coaching for fiction writers seeking structure, clarity, accountability, and manuscript developmen

Don’t return ebooks or audiobooks you’ve consumed on Amazon and Audible
Amazon and Audible made it into their policy that you can return ebooks and audiobooks and get a full refund.
They actively promote this, making their book shop into a book lending service, de facto a library you subscribe to. That’s their business plan to encourage subscribtions.
The dirty thing, however, is that Amazon and Audible are making the authors pay for each refunded item. They will detract money, income, royalties, from the authors’ account. They’re not hurting from the refund, the author is.
Look, no-one is saying you’re not allowed to return an item if you’ve read the first 50 pages or listened to the first 45 minutes. Maybe the style is not your thing. Maybe you don’t like the narrator’s voice. Maybe the quality of the writing drops severely after chapter three. Go ahead, if the product is bad, return it.
What I’m talking about is that no one should be able to listen to a ten-hour audiobook or read through nearly an entire novel and still get a refund.
Most of the readers don’t know who’s paying for this business plan. It’s not Amazon and Audible, they’re still keeping your subscription money. It’s the authors.
Spread the word.
Yeah, in all honesty, I would legit rather you pirate my series than do this.
I had someone read and then return the entirety of one of my series last month, and I don’t make enough from my books for that sudden loss of income to not be noticeable. So, I was going ahead going “oh, okay, when Amazon pays out for this month, I will make X amount, which means I can afford Y”, and then in one day, there was a significant drop from someone returning an entire series.
Like, I need to be able to plan ahead when it comes to my income, so honestly, if your plan is to buy and then return my series as a way to get it for free, please just pirate it instead of fucking me about. Or, you know, join my beta/ARC team or wait for me to make the series Pay-What-You-Want on my website. Or, hell, get it from your local library! It’s not like I don’t make it easy to get my books for free/cheap…
Reblogging again because I just woke up to “you have earned negative money so far this month” which is just a super great way to start the month… /s
Question: How do musketeers locate their hats after throwing them away? Do the hats boomerang?
Is there a tracker??
Do they own more than one hat?
Maybe the extra musketeers are hat trackers…
They have little legs and just waddle up to their owners once the fighting is over
@scionofqueens losing it over your tags 🤣🤣🤣
I had a short Musketeer fanfic called 'Aftermath' (by SpaceCowboy) that concerned this, but alas, the story was taken down when I incorporated the story into my published book, 'Nexus Point'. It showed that one of them, on the losing end of a bet, had to go around after a battle and collect all the things thrown away during the fight like hats, daggers and capes.

I explained it as when the battle was over, one of them on the losing end of a bet, had to go around and collect all the gear (hats, knives, capes, and what not) that were tossed or thrown in the battle.
