This is a week-by-week prequel to my upcoming novel Red Letter Law, for which I am pursuing traditional publishing. Red Letter Law is about teenagers on Mars in 2038. The Infrared Chronicles are about their parents, and take place on Earth in the present. Every Friday, starting December 16, 2016, I will post a small chapter from the perspective of one of these characters: Claudette, Nancy, Roger, Ford (Rutherford), and Laila. We will see our characters face challenges in real time, as each chapter takes place in the week before it is uploaded. Also available at infraredchronicles.blogspot.com.

Seventeen Crimes
Open Novella Contest 2024 writing prompt #83: Earth's climate is becoming increasingly inhospitable. Humans have located another planet to live on, but there's not enough room on the spacecrafts for everyone. Who stays and who goes? One wrong question has the power to condemn . Following the Martian discovery of a jump drive, the United Nations of Earth formulated a plan. There is a rumored list of seventeen crimes - modeled after the nineteen crimes that could get one sent to Australia. It seems a very similar one would get white collar corporate criminals, fringe political activists, terrorist operatives, bigots and climate law violators sent to Mars. Publicly, it's all denied. Then Brie Reyes (nee Hodges), finds herself arrested after a contentious briefing with the United States Climate Initiative Czar. Researching her absent father - who long ago left to be among the first settler of the Martian colony Selah - caused a cataclysmic shift in her life and her thinking. Meeting the half-brother born to her father after he settled on Mars may either bring her salvation or condemnation. Either way, Brie Reyes is going to Mars. Its either as a political prisoner. Or political refugee.Complete
Oh, My, Addison
This is a MATURE girlxgirl story. This can be a standalone novel, but there are characters from my book, I Hate You. Melanie Canon loves the idea of no commitment and no consequences, which is why she feels it necessary to have sex with any attractive person that's willing to play a game of cat and mouse. Because of this, Melanie essentially knows every girl on campus. Which is why Melanie is confused when Addison Cruz, a beautiful girl she had no idea existed, introduces herself one day and offers to have non consequential sex despite never even being kissed. Addison is bold, intelligent, and a tad-bit weird(an understatement). She's not afraid of telling it how it is, and she's definitely not afraid to say anything she was thinking about - whether or not it was appropriate to public ears. And besides - if this girl was offering a sexual relationship without the consequences of love, attachment, and relationships - then why did Melanie feel uncomfortable and guilty about using her? A quirky story revolving around lust, witty remarks, a lot of awkward conversations, and learning that it's okay to be yourself - you won't be disappointed as you follow the love story of how Addison Cruz and Melanie Canon fall in love.Complete
