Read More May the Fourth Be With YouAuthor: Sable Aradia
I'm a Pagan and speculative fiction author, a professional blogger, and a musician. I'm proudly Canadian and proudly LGBTQ. My politics are decidedly left and if you ask for my opinion, expect an honest answer. I am owned by a cat. I used to work part time at a bookstore and I love to read, especially about faith, philosophy, science, and sci-fi and fantasy.
Pity You Can’t Publish It
Some of you may know about my Spelljammer fanfiction the Toy Soldier Saga. For those who don’t, it has a special place in my heart for many reasons. The first is that I love the Spelljammer D&D campaign setting. I think it’s an amazing amount of fun! A few characters that I played in that […]

Well, I suppose I’m nothing if not amazing under pressure! After last night’s blog post, I promptly took a nap because I was exhausted (one of the reasons I figured I was not going to make my deadline; that and the expanded story). Then, as many writers do, I woke up at eleven-thirty at night […]
Read More Ha! I Made My Deadline After All!Not Making My Deadline
If I have one big flaw as a writer (indeed, as a participant in life!) it’s that I’m terrible for deadlines. I’m the one who streaks in to work at the bell (and sometimes a couple of minutes after the bell). I’m the one who always did my homework the night before it was due […]

Well, it’s clear that space opera is making a comeback! It’s too bad they don’t seem to notice that none of these themes are new. Thanks to their folkloric storytelling and galaxy-spanning scale, “space operas” have always been near to science fiction’s heart. Even the chilliest of them – Olaf Stapledon’s Last and First Men, […]

Here are the top 17 candidates for the Canadian Space Agency’s astronaut training program! Men and women from all over the country; doctors, soldiers, pilots, scientists.

I hear this a lot from other writers. “OMG, I have to stop writing the current story I’m working on and write a new one because it’s screaming at me to be written!” I used to have real problems with this too. The end result, of course, is that you never actually finish anything. Well, […]

Some possible precipitating factors are already in place. How the West reacts to them will determine the world’s future, says Rachel Nuwer. The political economist Benjamin Friedman once compared modern Western society to a stable bicycle whose wheels are kept spinning by economic growth. Should that forward-propelling motion slow or cease, the pillars that define […]
