The life and times of Charlie Dane in the 25th century is mixed with good intentions and brushes with the law. He dreams of being the best pilot flying to the Moon and Mars. Falling in love in his early years can't deter him from his dreams. As he settles on an alien planet, he recounts segments of his life after seeing something he shouldn't during a flight to the Moon, his first encounter with a young alien, and the many characters throughout the Domino Sagas.

About the author

I grew up in northern Idaho and met my husband at the University of Idaho. We traveled across the USA and back due to his jobs.
I became a screen printer and embroiderer for twenty years before retiring. So I'm well aware of design techniques.
After wintering in Arizona, I joined a wonderful writing class in 2011 which helped me write and publish by 2013. Today I have written over 25 novels and a collection of short stories, and novellas. I chose Science Fiction and Urban Fantasy as my genre because I enjoy reading and watching those types of stories. After our trips to Europe, I added Travel mysteries to my writing.
Some ask me about writer's block. I don't believe in that, it's a myth that excuses procrastination. Having said that, I agree there are times when you aren't sure of what scene comes next. I take a walk, watch a show, read a book, or just clean house. It will come to you.
I was unsure about tackling the Nanowrimo challenge the first time I did it so I planned out my story. In eleven days I wrote 50,000 words of a urban fantasy story that I added 9000 more words by the end of November 2015. Since then, I have won many more nano book awards, The Pottery Sale, The Cruise, The Takers, A Witch Comes a Haunting, Eye of the Throne, Mystery Along the Danube, and Mystery Along the Italian Coast. The fifth book in my UF, The Magic Within
