New “The Truth Beyond the Sky” 2024 cover


✨ HAPPY 11/11! ✨ Today I’m excited to reveal the new cover of my #TropicalSciFi novel, esp. since it’s free for a limited time! 🚀

This new cover brings Asha to life with a stunning update, capturing her bravery and beauty as she faces new worlds. With a new, gorgeous meteorite, a real moon photo, and vastly improved formatting in the interior, this NEW 2024 edition of “THE TRUTH BEYOND THE SKY” is better than ever!

Plus, it has new Easter Eggs, linking to “The Kaleidoscopic Universe,” coming next year! ✨

🌺 FREE until the end of the month — check this link to download! 🌺

What’s your favorite part about this new cover? For me, it’s Asha’s new look!

I asked an AI to create a poem about my upcoming Tropical Sci-Fi novel, The Kaleidoscopic Universe — which has an AI in it. It did well, though it missed how creepy the ‘vermin’ are! ↓
———
In space where shadows twist and creep,
Commander Mira’s watch runs deep. ‍
Asha’s gifts and Zahn’s lost love,
Face threats below and stars above.

An A.I.’s visions guide their quest,
As healing arts are put to test. 🫠
Through dangers dark, they seek to save,
A fragile world from vermin’s grave. 🕷️

The book pushes the boundaries of traditional Sci-Fi, integrating Hawaiian healing techniques, unrequited love, a sentient AI, vipassana, and intergalactic adventure. I’m incredibly excited about it, and I still have openings for beta readers to help refine it before its release next year

If you’re new to my Sci-Fi novels, this will be my 4th and is literally the BEST place to start. The manuscript is on Google Docs but can be sent in any format. Interested in shaping this new novel? Reach out.

Reel: I was lucky to find a room with a view of Phewa Lake!


When I was in #Pokhara, I was lucky to find a room that was so affordable and also had this amazing view of #PhewaLake 🤩 This vibe was part of the reason why I was able to get into the flow so much that I wrote a 90,000 word first draft of my next #tropicalscifi novel there. More about that in the coming months… #explorenepal

Reel: Hike up Sarangkot to see the 10th Tallest Mountain!


Let’s hike up Sarangkot to see the 10th Tallest Mountain IN THE WORLD: #Annapurna1 🏔 Fun fact: the #AnnapurnaRange is part of the #Himalayas, and contains tons of peaks over 7000 meters. (Annapurna 1 is 8,091 m!) And if you make it over to #Pokhara, you can hike to the top of #Sarangkot and see, completely free of charge. This is one reason I wholeheartedly recommend that everyone make it over to Pohkara; I found it especially inspirational as I wrote my 7th book there, a #tropicalscifi adventure What an amazing planet I find myself on! 🌍 #ExploreNepal #NomadicAuthor #slowtraveller
