Hey, #WriteandWine, I'm Rich, a SF/F/NF/Fantasy Noir/Action-Adventure/whatever author. No wine tonight, just good old water. I'm raring to jump into tonight's topic.

A-5: Move over, Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon - these ladies are here to save the galaxy. Eight of the greatest women to soar through space gathered together in one place to fight for justice, defeat evil, and maybe make a profit . . . hey, rocket fuel isn't cheap. #WriteAndWine

#WriteAndWine: A5: An intelligence agent hires an independent scout to take him on a mission to the wilds beyond the border not knowing they would fall in love.
(Still wordsmithing this.)

This is a comic/drawing project for me, just as much as it is a writing project. I was getting so good at drawing my Groovie Goolies characters that I wanted to draw out a whole story for them.
Particularly inspired by these three drawings:

A-4.2: Unfortunately, there just weren't that many female pirates who appeared in comics for that era, so I'll be bringing in some male pirates who're in the PD for that book. But, you work with what you've got.
Obviously an under-served demographic. *grin*

#WriteAndWine A4: For some reason it just won't let me go. The first iteration was written one November years ago and Rodney Bilsen was just a secondary character. Things have changed.

Takes place at Imhotep’s Temple in Hamunaptra in the 1970s. It’s a Groovie Goolies AU crossover with The Mummy franchise. #WriteAndWine

A-4: This is a passion project for me. I'm planning on doing 4 books, mostly featuring female protags. This first one is space heroines. Upcoming will be Female Western Protags, Female Reporters and finally Pirates. All PD. Had to open up the last one. #WriteAndWine

#WriteAndWine A3: It is at edge of an interstellar empire that is recovering from a collapse and the wild space beyond. It is a derivation of a background that a good friend (may he rest in peace) and I developed over the years. He published a story in it.
Aly retweeted
A-3: Outer Space, of course. I'm facing a bit of a conundrum though keeping that 1940s flavor while trying to make them a "little" more realistic given our space knowledge is a bit more advanced these days. It's a tight-rope, but I guess I'll err on the side of fun. #WriteAndWine
Aly retweeted
Yeah, to be honest, there was a dearth of space heroines to choose from. Obviously, two-fisted space pirates and heroic space warriors were the norm in the 40s. Still, these characters were fun to research. #WriteAndWine
Aly retweeted
A-2.1: One of the things I've liked about each of these characters is they were way ahead of the curve for the 1940s. While they were certainly drawn curvaciously (for the most part), they also kicked butt and took names. These weren't damsels in distress. #WriteAndWine
Aly retweeted
A-2: Definitely main characters. I'm featuring eight space heroines - Gale Allen and her Girl Squadron, Futura, Tara the Pirate Queen, Mysta of the Moon, Magician from Mars, Delecta, Teena, and April Wing. #WriteAndWine

I am currently writing immortal hunger, a spicy sapphic vampire romance. It is set in New Orleans and begins at a witches ball which some vampires attend as well.
Aly retweeted
A-1: As I said in my intro-it's a short story collection. I'm revisiting Golden Age comic-book space heroines who've fallen into public domain. I've been a big fan of older comics and want to reintroduce some of these characters. Plus, they're just fun to reimagine. #WriteAndWine

Hi, I'm Rich, a SF/F/NF/Fantasy Noir/etc. etc. etc.
Currently working on finishing a short story collection for release next year (writing) and a novel & novella collection for relase next year also (editing).

#WriteAndWine A1: I have a science fiction romance that I've been arguing with for years. I have decided to start at square 1, a single sentence that encompases the story, and build it up using the SnowCat method.

#WriteAndWine Good evening, Mark here. I have some cranberry juice. I have no goals for FALL INTO WRITING or that other writing thing going on this month.
Aly retweeted
10 minutes until #WriteAndWine which means 10 minutes until the officially official kick-off of the first annual #FallIntoWritingChallenge!
