I've watched every StarTrek episodes NUMEROUS times, Next Generation, Deep Space 9, every ST movie, the original Star Wars series and one or two of the new ones (couldn't bear to watch the last one) etc., etc. My reading list is just as long with Gini Koch's Alien Proliferation next on the list.<br /><br />I consider myself safe from geekdom in that I didn't memorize the Klingon dictionary a brother gave me for Christmas.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09747079254596095418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7738883619831401054.post-59161188338313755662011-12-03T15:09:00.541-05:002011-12-03T15:09:00.541-05:00@DL - I've always loved scifi, too, but someth...@DL - I've always loved scifi, too, but something about signs really freaked me out, and aliens stopped being the friendly creatures from Star Wars and Star Trek to those wanting to take over the planet. It took writing about aliens to change my mindset back. After all, my favorite alien has always been Superman. :)<br /><br />@Ann - Dune is one I've never read or seen, but I'm going to have to. So many people have recommended that story to me. Yes, that is an awesome cover. :)<br /><br />@Jennifer - Yes, I don't think I would have had the same reaction had I lived in the city at the time. Thanks! :)<br /><br />@Carrie Ann - There is still some scifi I refuse to watch, but it's usually that without any romance involved. LOL Thanks! :)<br /><br />@Alexa - Me too! And I'm really happy with what came out of it.<br /><br />@Clarissa - Those that are coming to take over the earth are. Not the ones I write about though. :)<br /><br />@Kaye - I've been influenced by both sides, but when I started writing, SFR seemed to come naturally. The romance aspect is very important to me. :)<br /><br />@Lisa - Still watch Star Wars, and anxious to see what they bring out next with Star Trek. I remember watching TNG as a kid and being very excited when Voyager came out. I couldn't imagine space without some romance. :)<br /><br />@Cathy - Actually watched The Terminator the other day. DL's books are awesome! Loved This Endris Night. :)Jessica E.

I grew up believing in the prospect of space travel. So I didn't get the negative precept of aliens that the media sometimes encourages. When I started writing it was natural for me to write SF. The romantic aspect was just there too. I write SFR because it is truly my favorite, and the best subgenre for me to explore.Kaye Manrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03639814610213100626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7738883619831401054.post-19699510226087966762011-12-03T11:26:57.574-05:002011-12-03T11:26:57.574-05:00Aliens are scary! lol.

Yes, as an adult I realize that movie isn't all that good, but as a kid I was enthralled by the epic storyline, the awesome costumes, everything about it was so cool! Good SciFi is very similar to good paranormal romance, just replace magic with science. ;) Thanks for posting!<br /><br />Ann<br /><br /><br />Conquering Venus has always caught my eye.

As a young ...I've always loved science fiction. As a young girl, I saw Star Wars on the big screen and was carried away into the world. As I grew older, I wanted more romance in the genre and rarely found it. I started writing in High School, joined the Army and stopped for a few years. It wasn't until seven years ago I picked it up, and science fiction romance was my genre of choice. For those that have never read the genre, I highly encourage you to give it a try--it's not your daddy's sci fi, we've come a long way, baby.<br />Thanks for running the Light up the Holidays, Jessica. And I enjoyed the post. It's nice to know where other authors got their starts in the genre.D L Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03005096541408308851noreply@blogger.com
