De-Motivational Posters, Science Fiction Style

It's a very backspace planet we live on, here on Earth. Our tiny minds have no concept of the trials and tribulations faced by higher lifeforms in the Greater Communicating Universe (GCU)...

Until now. :)

Today, I thought I'd just share with you a few demotivational (unmotivational? not-at-all-with-the-motivation?) posters I'd played around with recently, using quotes and ideas from my There Goes the Galaxy books. Aside from the water photos, which were taken by me during some extra-planetary travel (y'know, Florida), the others are courtesy of NASA's Hubble telescope photo archives, which are not only breathtaking, but royalty-free! Hurray!

This quote was a request from a reader of the series, and it comes from the second book, The Purloined Number...

One of my favorites from There Goes the Galaxy, in one of its interstellar marketing advice chapters...

From The Purloined Number, courtesy of my character, Underworld adventurer, Captain Rolliam Tsmorlood...

Also from Rollie...

From There Goes the Galaxy's mystics, the Seers of Rhobux-7...

One last bit of advice from Rollie Tsmorlood...

Now, if you'd like to share any of the images above, please go ahead. I just ask that you not edit them; leave them in their natural state. Like a, um, unpickled cucumber. Or that kid from college you remember who didn't believe in hygiene products.

Have a great rest of your Thursday!

Howdy, Strangers!

Greetings, friends! And long time, no see! I've been away for ages due to a 330-some page baby called The Purloined Number. It's the second humorous sci-fi book in my There Goes the Galaxy trilogy, and it pretty well sucked the time from my days and the energy from my blogging fingers. But on the plus side, it was great fun to write and I'm really happy with the direction the characters have taken.

My friend, Dave White, did this cover as well--and I think he outdid himself. I mean... LOOK at the spacely awesomeness! The man was making planets, fer Pete's sake—and then, on the seventh day he rested and ordered delivery.

Anyway, the book came out in paperback in late September, and in ebook versions in early October. It's on Amazon, Barnes and Noble online and Smashwords, if you're curious and want to take a gander.

So far, the reviews are pretty stellar.

That out of the way, I'm hoping to get back to updating this site more often now, while I work on the final There Goes the Galaxy book. (The one jokingly called: There Goes the Galaxy: No Fraggin' Title Yet.)

Hope things have been well for you all, and I look forward to getting to interact with you again!
