Welcome to Space Authors
Welcome, Sci-Fi Writers Please read the community guidelines in the Space Ranger Manual, accessible to all members. This is the place for science fiction writers, worldbuilders, space opera addicts, military sci-fi tacticians, hard sci-fi nerds, soft sci-fi philosophers, and anyone who has ever spent three hours researching orbital mechanics instead of writing Chapter One. Whether you write: - gritty military sci-fi, - weird cosmic horror, - cyberpunk, - time travel, - AI rebellion stories, - alien first contact, ... you’re among friends here. Introduce yourself and tell us: - what you write, - what you’re working on, - and your all-time favourite sci-fi franchise, movie, or book. (There are no wrong answers… unless you say the Star Wars Holiday Special.) Mine? Mass Effect owns my soul, Stargate deserved ten more seasons, and I firmly believe The Fifth Element is one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made. Also a huge fan Ruins of the Galaxy book series by Christopher Hopper, the Planetside series by Michael Mammay, and the I, Robot series by Asimov. Now grab a coffee, tea, or bottle of contraband space whiskey and jump into the conversation.

New Codex Entry: Writing LEOs
What are LEOs? Law Enforcement Officers. If you're struggling to incorporate realistic police officers (secondary or main character), check out this article written by a law enforcement officer with over a decade of experience. People in specific jobs tend to have specific 'issues' with how they're portrayed in media. Try not to fall into one of the cliché traps. And if Law Enforcement Officers isn't what you need, the Field Guide (in the Codex) also offers How to Write: Woman and Medical. More coming soon.
