When Words Collide Conference is an annual event in Calgary, Alberta. This is my first time being a speaker for the event. I’ll be on a panel of three discussing an up and coming sub-genre that is becoming more popular: “cozy sci-fi”, no longer just cozy mysteries 🕵🏼🚀 #writing #conference #cozy #sciencefiction #scifi @nelming

Organized Chaos
STARFINDER book: the universe seems like organized chaos. Just look around you and tell me it’s not so! #writing #research #space #universe @nelming
Sci-Fi Visionaries
Sci-Fi Visionaries: Aldous Huxley wrote this cautionary tale back in the 1930s – food for thought. Hopefully, CRSPR will heed those DNA cautions – clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats 🧬 #writing #research #sci-fi @nelming

Noetic Marj Maps
Maps for Noetic Marj Odyssey: the second map in my book displays the Cold Lake Air Weapons Range in northern Alberta. Marj has to infiltrate a D.U.M.B to rescue her friend. Thank you, Nicholas Donovan Mueller, for your cartography 🎈🗺️🍁 #writing #maps #cartography #books @nelming
What About Adverbs?
What about adverbs? The more new material I read and/or view, the more I notice that adverbs, verb modifiers, are disappearing in favour of adjectives, noun modifiers. Here’s one though that sounds more fun as it rolls off your tongue 🎢😜 #writing #grammar @nelming
