Seren and Dom live on a spaceship where choice is rebellion. But when they dare to fall in love, the taste of freedom is so sweet they don't care about the consequences. I'll be posting the full story of The Loneliness of Distant Beings on Wattpad before my second book, The Glow of Fallen Stars, publishes on 24th August 2017. Find both books on Amazon or in your local bookshop: www.amazon.co.uk/Loneliness-Distant-Beings-Book-Ventura/dp/1510200169 www.amazon.co.uk/d/Books/Glow-Fallen-Stars-Book-Ventura/1510200185 *** Seren's life might be confined to a tin can hurtling through space, but she wants more. More life. More passion. And the impossible: to feel sunshine on her skin. But then she meets Dom, and he changes everything. Suddenly her dull grey life becomes technicolour. She's not meant to love him, but to lose him would be like losing herself. She's determined to keep hold of what they have, no matter how dangerous ... 'It is that quick, that strong, that beautiful. And it is also totally impossible.'

Fanfiction from Sherlock Holmes to Fifty Shades of Grey and Beyond . . . What is fanfiction, and what is it not? Why does fanfiction matter? And what makes it so important to the future of literature? Fic is a groundbreaking exploration of the history and culture of fan writing and what it means for the way we think about reading, writing, and authorship. It's a story about literature, community, and technology-about what stories are being told, who's telling them, how, and why. With provocative discussions from both professional and fan writers, on subjects from Star Trek to The X-Files and Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Harry Potter, Twilight, and beyond, Fic sheds light on the widely misunderstood world(s) of fanfiction-not only how fanfiction is transforming the literary landscape, but how it already has.
