I enjoy reading and writing novels in a variety of genres. This includes action, adventure, dystopian, post-apocalyptic, thriller, and western. In short story form I even include science fiction and horror. Recently I began my first science fiction novel. I believe its going rather well. To give you a rough idea of the story, it takes place on earth in perhaps the not so distant future. The planet is almost uninhabitable due to wars and pollution. An air mask is required in and around Triterra, the last city on earth. Crops will no longer grow in the sterile soil. A ship arrives, sent by the Alliance of Worlds, to relocate a cross-section of the population in order to save earth's humanity. Is it too good to be true? Beware of the helping hand!

I'm what is called a 'pantser,' writing by the seat of my pants rather than from an outline. I like to be as surprised as the reader as I write. Predictability is not an option. So, right now I think I'm about midway through the book, but we'll see.
