I just discovered that a bunch of people friended me and I hadn't gotten around to friending them back, so sorry about that! I'm glad to have you here, and if you want to introduce yourself in the comments, I'd be most grateful ;)
Two days ago I shelved The Dreaming for a while and started work on a new draft of a novel I'm calling Dale Shepard and the Bug Aliens. It's a YA novel, which I'm having a great deal of fun with, about a teenaged boy from small town Arizona who gets the chance to attend an alien flight school on another planet.
It's near....ish? future Earth, so I'm having a few fits with fiddling around with upgrading the technology to the point where humans have interstellar flight, without making Earth seem too completely different. I can't wait to introduce the aliens, either.
I'm sort of mentally calling it my "Harry Potter in space with aliens instead of magic" series. It's planned for four books, but we'll see how the first one goes, of course. I wouldn't be surprised if it expands out to a longer series than just four as I develop it. I'm expecting it to have lots of fun characters and awkward romance and action.
