Yeah, that image above is ‘Oumuamua, a mysterious interstellar object seen a few years back.
Pretty cool.
It only relates tangentially to my newest idea, a series about an alien invasion. Guys, it came to me yesterday during a long, boring drive in the middle of nowhere.
This is frequently how ideas come to me. My mind in neutral, cruising along. I tell myself stories as I drive. Sometimes they are stupid. Sometimes crazy. Usually implausible. But always entertaining, at least to me for a short while. Maybe I get these stories because I can’t stand to listen to the radio and my mind fills in the gaps.
Whatever. All I know is that the creative engine is cranking while I drive along. Yesterday was one of those days.
Suddenly, I had the premise for a pretty cool book, and I bounced the title off of my passenger. She and I tossed it back and forth, and I had a working title by the time I reached my destination.
No, I won’t reveal it. I won’t even reveal it over on my paywall page for my hard-core fans. Not yet, anyway.
This idea is so new it’s glistening like a newborn foal.
But it’s one of those concepts that simply must happen. I’ve seen a fair bit of enthusiasm over on Patreon, and I’ve decided that this is going to be my latest series.
Everyone loves an alien invasion, and I am no different.
This is going to happen, amongst all my other projects.
Count on it.
