I update my blog but don't have much for social media and generally hate trying to fight to stand out amid the online clamor or not get any conversations on my lonely blog. Maybe readers here will ask questions or find my series and want to know more about it. It's convenient that these discussions show up under the book where they're started for readers to find.
This space opera is an extension of my original young adult Dark Angel Chronicles series that started with the first Starfire Angels book.
As I wrote in the forward of A NEW BEGINNING, the first book of Starfire Angels: Forgotten Worlds, I had always had the idea for a series like this but had hoped to bring in outside authors to make it happen. Around the tenth anniversary of writing the first Starfire Angels book, my creativity finally came around with the right idea for a long series of individual episodes building to a climactic series finale, in a format similar to Babylon 5. That's exactly what I did in the universe of my Starfire Angels with Forgotten Worlds. And I designed this series to let me play with a variety of story formats and situations, so you get a huge variety of stories in this series with and ensemble cast of characters throughout the series.
As of writing this post, I'm in the homestretch of the first draft of Book 24 of this 25-book series. I need to add them all to Spotlight on Indie, but the omnibus collections are here to start. You can find them under my author profile.
If anyone has any questions, or if I think of anything I want to add, I'll post it on this discussion thread.
