But I Digress…, Episode 47: Unboxing ‘A Time for Everything’ (NEW ANTHOLOGY!)

(I intended for this to be set as a premiere on YouTube, but it didn’t work. Oops).

I’ve been sitting on this video for a while now, and I finally got around to editing and uoploading it. In this, I unbox a new anthology from Onward and Upward Media, A Time for Everything, which is a collection of short stories to which I contributed. Each of the tales within is based on a line from Ecclesistes 3. I chose “a time to dance” because I’m a ballroom dancer in my spare time. Enjoy this fun little video!

But I Digress…, Episode 29: How to Write Speculative Fiction, Part 4 – Major Subgenres of Sci-Fi

“But I Digress…”
Hosted by Nathan Marchand

After an unintended hiatus, I, Nathan Marchand, return with a proper episode! I conclude my four-part series–finally–on writing speculative fiction. Part 3 detailed the major subgenres of fantasy, and this episode does the same for science fiction.

Opening ‘Pandora’s Box’

After 8 1/2 years of waiting, I finally received copies of my first novel, Pandora’s Box. (FYI: It didn’t take that long to write it. I first conceived the story 8 1/2 years ago). This was a momentous occasion for me, one that I wanted to share it with everyone. So, I had my little sister, Sarah, record it.

Set in 2110, Pandora’s Box tells the story of a lone female soldier defending the world’s last stockpile of weapons of mass destruction from a ruthless dictator intent on using them to upset the balance of power in a world war.

This video was recorded by my little sister, Sarah.
