    Hiya, I've been busy writing my non-fiction series on space travel in the next 30 years, 7 books in all, I've almost completed 2, another 2 are not far behind. Though I'd share a treat: in the first book I added an imaginary blog, where young Livi (Olivia) goes on her first trip to the Moon via space elevator. This blog will also be in the sci-fi trilogy which follows on after I've written these 7 books (what will I do next week lol?) So have a read! #LiviGoesToTheMoon

    "Perfect World Somewhere" is now a Featured Sci Fi novel! Thank you to the Wattpad team and all of you fantastic readers and friends who have made my millennium ;) I hope this story inspires and uplifts others as much as it has me. *** Lily Fairpoole is a girl of many talents. Gifted with a brilliant mind and a beautiful singing voice, she excels at an early age, working as her father's apprentice in their robotic maintenance shop. Her loving family and complacent life in the rural town of Plumgrove are sheltered from the outside world, though the War with the Pruessian Empire has raged across Earth for two generations. Even the most peaceful havens fall on Black Sky Day, as the robotic armies of the Kaezer devastate the homeworld. Faced with overwhelming destruction, Lily and her loved ones begin a journey driven by sacrifice, and the will to remain free. Lily's struggle takes her to the strongholds of the resistance, the dreaded ration camps of the enemy, the glittering and powerful off-world colonies, and finally to the Ruby lift--the swanky and yet often chaotic space elevator operated by the Royal Crown Orbital Plaza and Resort. Chromed and streamlined rocketships, heroic robots, brave revolutionaries, flappers, and plenty of jazz! A blend of early twentieth century eras and possible futures, as well as a coming-of-age story, this is the first complete novel in my retrofuturistic "Family of Earth" series. This novel is in revision status, so please feel free to comment and leave any feedback. Note: This story contains violence and dark situations, in an apocalyptic setting.

    On the island of Leyte in the year 2094, a space elevator begins to behave strangely-its immense tether vibrating in rhythmic pulses that form patterns no one can explain. As communication engineer Dr. Elisa Navarro investigates, she discovers the oscillations resemble Morse code... and seem to contain her own name. A haunting blend of science and mystery, The Whispering Cable explores the fragile boundary between signal and consciousness.

    What would the most escape proof prison ever built be like? Where would it be located? How would you ever escape? This novella is a cross between 1984 and Escape from Alcatraz. It is a story of what is happening today in our country. It is about the future and the most escape proof prison ever created which is located on the moon. It is controlled remotely by use of robotic equipment. It is the story of an invisible man who is not really invisible but might as well be. In it there is nano-botic drugs, space elevators, the one world order, corpracracy (government by corporation). It is about the resurgence of freedom, love and spirituality.

    It has been 75 years since the people of Mars revealed their existence. After the ensuing war, Martian and Earthen people were allowed to immigrate between the two worlds freely, causing a massive influx of people from the Red Planet who longed to leave their subterranean civilization and live in the open air on the surface of Earth. Economic turmoil, racial tension, and the perception of political influence over America's government has led to intractable conflict, and civil war.
