Back Jacket cover:
High fashion model Cara is approached by Duluth, a hologram of a human who may or may not really exist, warning of an impending alien attack. History college major Evelyn meets Adam, an alien posing as a homeless man. Disabled Marine veteran Heather is befriended by an alien able to transform into creatures from humanity’s nightmares. Inventor Albrecht’s robot is taken over by Kilroy, a computer program running on Mister Roboto, a robotic probe from another world hidden away on the ocean bottom along mid-Atlantic ridge. Associate pastor Chet is contacted by Slip Slider, a badly-confused being able to transport himself and others through space and time. These five aliens and their five human associates are all that stand between the Earth and Screech, an AI leading ten Screamer space ships to Earth in order to end humanity. A dysfunctional alliance of these five humans and these alien immigrants forced out of hiding needs to gel quickly in order to save the world.
8/9/25: I finish writing Immigrants.
3/1/25: I have totally finished the first draft. All four parts. Now the rewriting begins.
11/27/24: I have finished the first draft of Part One. Also, I now have a working title – ‘Immigrants’.
I am currently working on a science fiction novel. I don’t have a title for it yet, but I do have a bit of a plot. More importantly at this point, I have characters I am fleshing out. 10 of them, in fact – 5 humans & 5 aliens. There is the human college history major Evelyn & the homeless alien Adam; the human computer engineer Albrecht & the robot probe Mister Roboto; The professional model Cara & the alien explorer Oort Man; the human pastor Matt & the alien interdimensional being Slip Slider; and finally the injured Army vet Heather & the alien pet Cryptid.
