Reader Comments: "I'm gonna gush about your book real quick...all the technology has a purpose and is beautifully explained so I can picture it in my mind...the whole concept of the book is completely original...*moment of silence for your beautiful arch of character development* everything your characters do is strictly them but they develop enough to show more about themselves without you straight up telling the reader about them" -Vairl9023 "Ahh!!!

Stargate Atlantis: I'm Alive
When a normal off world mission turns to chaos resulting in a downed jumper and an injured team mate. Sheppard and his team find themselves digging around the ruins of a once high tech civilization. Yet when a lone survivor makes her appearance, she drops a bomb shell that changes the mission entirely. -------------- This is the first book in a Stargate Atlantis Fan fiction series I will be doing known as "The Ethnosphere Chronicles" I hope to be able to take this series concept as far as I can!! Taking place somewhere between seasons two and three, my universe will stay somewhat canon, but for the sake of variety things will be spiced up. Some characters ages may change, but nothing totally insane. It has been nearly 12 years since I first wrote a fanfiction, SGA was where my first one took place. I pay homage to that, and hope that what I know now will give me a new edge. Thanks!!Complete
White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔
❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.
