Speculative Fiction

[close] This group is for exchanging thoughts about science fiction and fantasy stories that show humanity at our best and project healthy, inclusive, and diverse possibilities of forms of local and world community. For dystopia, just read the news. We want fiction that gives us a sense of hope, meaning, and purpose.

[close] Welcome to the House of Llianne Olivo — a gathering space for readers who crave romance in every shade, shape, and form. Here you will find sweet stories, dark tales, spicy scenes, taboo corners, speculative twists, paranormal secrets, contemporary ache, and moments touched by mysticism and ghostlight that linger long after the last page. This group is for readers who want more than just a book on a shelf. Join if you want early access to my new releases as an ARC reader, or if you want to be part of my street team or beta circle. Here you can help pick tropes, share your preferences, and shape what I write next. I share giveaways, signed copies, bookmarks, and sometimes special extras through my Etsy shop. I release books weekly — Kindle Unlimited drops, Wattpad freebies, wide paperbacks and ebooks, and future audiobooks. I post behind-the-scenes confessions, raw thoughts about the industry, and honest updates on what it costs to build stories that bruise sweet. Many of my stories drift through shadows of spirituality and old myths — creatures of night and day, ghosts, forgotten gods, and whispered secrets. If that resonates with you, you will find it here, woven softly into the bones of each book. I hope to visit book fairs and local stores soon, and this group will be the first to know where I might appear next. If you want more connection, you can join my Discord for text chats, voice nights, story polls, music, and quiet late-night company. Whether you like your romance clean or dangerously dark, soft or sharp, sweet or uncomfortably good, you are welcome here. This House is built for readers who support each other and help my work stay visible with reviews, word-of-mouth, and honest conversation. We build this House together. Bienvenidos. This is where the ghosts get fed.

[close] The NeoSciFi Collective is a resistance network of writers, artists, filmmakers, educators, theorists, coders, readers, and cultural disruptors committed to dismantling the spectacle-driven science fiction industry and reimagining the future as a site of philosophical, political, and aesthetic possibility. Purpose of the Group To activate the ideas in the NeoSciFi Manifesto by creating a decentralized movement that: 1) Unearths lost or marginalized futures through artistic and philosophical excavation 2) Builds platforms and tools for producing and distributing counter-science fiction 3) Fosters critical literacy and resistance to spectacle among readers, students, and creators 4) Designs new cultural apparatuses outside the mainstream entertainment economy.
