🎉 Happy release to The Relentless Legion, book 3 in The Divide series!! 🎉 (Apparently I got so excited I unknowingly preordered it twice 🤣) Look how prettttty these books look together 😍 The Divide series holds such a special place in my heart—you know that saying “books can change lives”? This series, most specifically The Last Watch (TLW, book 1), changed my life. It’s actually the reason why I write sci fi and work on cool aero and space missions 🚀 If you have a minute, buckle up, it’s story time…
Once upon a time (~7 years ago), I joined an online community called Scribophile—it’s a website where writers can upload works and receive feedback in exchange for providing critiques on other writing—and that is where I met Jenny 🤩 At that point, I was a freshman mechanical engineering student at Temple University 🦉 trying to put my life together after leaving West Point the year prior (long story for another day) and figuring where the hell am I supposed to go from here. Writing—more specifically, the lovely group of writers I joined as long-term critique partners—was where I found stability and support 💖
Reading the early versions of TLW sparked an interest in sci fi in me like never before 💫 Up until that point, I’d never had strong inclination toward space opera fictions or aerospace-related stuff…but I fell in love with TLW (The plot! The characters! The world building!) and consequentially, thought “hey, sci fi is actually pretty cool, and so is space!” 🪐
So I tried writing sci fi for my next manuscripts, one of which ended up being The Celestial Seas 🐳✨ The more curious I got about space, the more interest I had in working in the aerospace sector, which led to applying for a NASA internship…which I got…and returned…and returned again as a full time employee working on everything from Mars helicopters to EVTOLs (flying taxis) to the world’s largest wind tunnel ✈️ 🚁🌌
And to think this all started because of a story (TLW) and an amazing, wonderful writer (@jsdewes) 💕 So please don’t stop reading & don’t stop writing—the world needs more stories 📚
