Like most genre writers, I occasionally get the “that’s sweet dear” response when I tell people I write science fiction.  I want to take people and shake them up a bit and demonstrate how many classic and current bestselling work is science fiction or fantasy.  I want to mention the popular Game of Thrones on HBO, the many SF movies, the classics like 1984 and the highly relevant new work like Who Fears Death? and ShipBreaker.  I want to tell people our work is easy to read and thoughtful, full of character and setting and driving tensions.  So when the bookstore Printsasia asked me to do a guest blog, I chose just that topic.  Drop by and and give the post a readm make a comment, list your favorite books.
