I just got my first review on Amazon for my first solo fiction book!

"Surreal Sci-Fi For Serious Thinkers

This novel from Cliff Jones, Jr. is my kind of science fiction novel: It's unpredictable, profound, philosophical and filled with insightful social commentary and brilliant satire on ever page.

Honestly, there are enough great ideas in this book to fill 3 other sci-fi novels, but somehow Jones manages to cram one ingenious concept after the other into every single chapter.

Once I started, I couldn't stop thinking about it until I reached the ending.

Looking forward to more great writing from this author. He's definitely a talent to watch!"

Slipstream is a retro-styled arcade racer. It's not 8-bit retro, so much as a throwback to the arcade racers I sucked at in the early-mid 1990's.

One of the things I find myself struggling with is that the more games I play, the more reference points I have, and the harder it becomes to enjoy some games.

If I open an MMORPG, I played WoW for over a decade, but that burned me out on MMORPGs. So an MMORPG has a lot to overcome.

If I open a survival game, it needs to grab me as well as Subnautica... used to. Until I played Breathedge. Friendship ended with Subnautica, Breathedge is my survival friend now.

For arcade racing games, it's Forza Horizon 4*. Slipstream is a very well designed arcade racer, and leans heavily on nostalgia for that era of games. It's just that I don't have any nostalgia for that style of game.

So while it's well done, it doesn't offer me something that I don't get from another game, in a more enjoyable way.

Sorry, Slipsteam. You're just a bit:

*Almost 18 months ago, I found a literal showstopper bug that causes FH4 to crash, regularly. It took months for the Forza team to accept that it was a bug.

It's STILL not fixed. Much disappoint.

While we all recognize the threat of global warning, not everyone would risk as much to fix it as Christian Sparrow, the main character of the romantically-tinged time travel #SciFi #Slipstream novel "Time Bomb." To learn more, check out this exclusive Q&A with author John Patrick.

Read my ★★★★ review of Bridget Collins' 2019 debut novel "The Binding," a unique urban fantasy tale about an alt-world where novels are literal memories stolen from human brains by magic, but that I unfortunately liked less than her mindblowing 2020 follow-up, the "1920s fascism meets Hogwarts meets The Game" thriller "The Betrayals." https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5472125601

This weekend, I've completed one of the two fungus-themed romantic speculative fiction stories that have been neglected for too long.

The newly completed story is fantasy. I had to direct it out of Horror into Romance. Let's see if I can do the same for the science fiction story.

#WritingWonders 2/7: Does weather or climate play a particular role in your book?

It sure does. I’m writing Cli-Fi about the Great Flood. It is syncretic and pulls in elements from a variety of mythologies, folklores, fairytales, Bible stories, science, and pop culture. #CliFi #slipstream #GreatFlood #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #mythology

#WritingWonders Day 1: Introduce yourself, fun fact about your WIP. I’m a multidisciplinary artist and writer currently living in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. I grew up in an apocalyptic cult living in rural and remote areas across the country. I am currently about halfway through my manuscript, which is a slipstream retelling of the Great Flood story. It features a fertility god who has some problems with erectile dysfunction. #slipstream @indigenousauthors #fantasy #AmWriting

The hardest part of writing my book is writing from the POV of angels. I ain’t no angel. #AmWriting #Angels #Slipstream #SpeculativeFiction
