New Snack City, Oishi Prime is based on Osaka. Their saying, "Food is fuel, the sweeter the food, the more powerful the fuel," is a Sci-Fi twist on "Eat until you drop."

I managed to fit a reference to a great Aussie Sci-Fi movie, Dark City, into my middle grade Sci-Fi book series: Artemis Starfighter Academy. Tempest's best friend lives on Shell Beach.

@bookishsff.bsky.social Ensign Doogie Maverick in my book series Artemis Starfighter Academy is a mix of whiny Luke Skywalker, Doogie Howser MD, Ensign Wesley Crusher (German Version), and real life Wil Wheaton who'll hate books 1&2, but may love #3...

My book series has the best and worst of Canadian food:
Best: Oh, Canada Limited Edition Maple Flavored Oishi Yum Yum bars
Worst: New Quebec seafood chowder: tastes like they scooped it out of the harbor. (Based on Barb's seafood chowder, Victoria 30 years ago)

My book has finally been read on Kindle Unlimited 22 pages by two people as of yesterday, from Canada and Germany! After six month, Book 1 had zero reads. Book 2 took only two days. I am confident German and Canadian readers will enjoy The Killipedes, Space Pirates, and Sporks Strike Back! #booksky

Artemis Starfighter Academy Book 1 is free this weekend (Amazon ebook). Book 2 is super close to release July 2025 for sure. Both books are humorous sci-fi adventures for Australians ages 9-12, but fun for all ages

If you are a Middle Grade Author please send me a link to your book. I would love to start a library of books for kids undergoing this treatment at Boston Children’s Hospital. Even better, if you want to donate one of your books, please contact me.

Foods in Writing

I had a lot of fun with the foods in my sci-fi novel Artemis Starfighter Academy. Vegemite on rye bread, pea soup, and garlic octopus dumpling chocolate bars, and Meatzu (a cross between spam and cheese whiz) are just a few. What was your favorite food in a story?

Despite having the most German last name ever, I don't know any German. I'm learning via social media. I learned through many posts that "Scheiß auf dich, AfD" means Merry Christmas. So, to the good people of Germany, I wish you a Scheiß auf dich, AfD and a happy New Year!

New Woolloomooloo Township, or WoTown, is the capital of Space Colony New Australia in 3025. I started with New Alice Springs, then Woop Woop City. Finally, I saw Woolloomooloo in a travel book. Check out WoTown in my new book, available on Amazon:
