As you may know, I live out in the Boondocks, the sticks, Woop Woop (or pick your own quaint phrase meaning “the middle of nowhere”). The main industries here are fruit growing and wine making. They play country and western musak in the local supermarket and the churches outnumber the pubs about twenty to [...]
Lately, four of the self-published authors I follow (on their blogs and Twitter) have said that they are giving up. Some are giving up writing altogether, some are giving up their attempts to be successful. Four is quite a rash and I wonder if it is a sign of things to come. The three [...]
I’ve been looking forward to this launch, partly because the book contains some of my favourite Australian SFF writers, partly because the whole point of the book is to raise awareness of suicide, and partly because it contains the first story of mine ever to be published that features one of my favourite creations, [...]
Well, it was a long and strange journey, but my time travel thriller, TimeSplash, is now available as an audio book – thanks to my newest publisher, Iambik Audiobooks. So, as we speak, TimeSplash is on sale as a self-published ebook and as a commercially published audio book, and it is in production at [...]
Before I go on, let me just squee* for a moment. The second edition of my time travel thriller, TimeSplash, is out today (on Smashwords – out tomorrow on Amazon), It has had a bit of an overhaul, too: new cover, slight re-edit, and two new ISBNs. That’s it, on the left of this [...]
Tales of Post-Apocalyptic Love
Remember me mentioning some upcoming anthologies with stories of mine in them? Well, one is out today. So shoot over to Amazon and grab your copy. All proceeds to to help Queensland flood victims. These guys lost a lot and are still suffering, so if you’re feeling charitable, this [...]
Emma Newman, rising star of the YA science fiction world, has just posted a thoughtful piece on her blog about why she doesn’t like giving writing advice. As with many of Emma’s musings, it got me thinking.
My view on free advice in general is that tends to be worth exactly what you paid [...]
In preparation for their forthcoming sci-fi anthology, In Situ, Dagan Books has begun posting interviews with the contributing authors. And today, it’s my turn.
The idea behind In Situ is a good one. It is an anthology of science fiction tales about alien excavations, weird archaeology, and the unearthing of mysteries. As an avid [...]
Happy New Year everybody!
First off, thanks to everyone who took advantage of my publisher’s Holiday Special and snagged a cheap copy of TimeSplash. Astute shoppers will notice that the offer has now closed. Personally, I’d like to keep the price that low all year round but it’s not up to me. Instead, I [...]
This is probably my last post before Christmas, so let me wish you all a great one. I love Christmas and I love having my family here for the celebrations, so I’ll be having a good time. I’ve also lined up my Christmas reading – for all the quiet time that never quite materialises.

Campaigns The Yasmin McKillop Appeal
Yasmin is a lovely young woman who has a brain tumour and needs $60,000 for an operation that could save her. She doesn't have the money and her sister has started an appeal. Please visit the appeal's Facebook page and give what you can.
Books I Recommend I have put together a set of books which are, in my view, the best sci-fi ever written. If you want to know my taste in sci-fi, or if you’re interested in expanding your own collection, go and take a look.
Find my favourite Science Fiction Masterpieces on my Amazon store.
But wait…
My Amazon store is a separate website. When you get there you will need to click the “Return to the Graham Storrs blog” link to get back here. |
