R. Peter Keith's Blog, page 7

My series "Wine Dark Deep" isn't ALL action-packed space fights "worthy of Hollywood"... it's also extremely real science.

I created a museum experience that allowed visitors to learn how to fly a spaceship. That project inspired my newest sci-fi series, Wine Dark Deep: Book 1”

Thank you so much to www.the360mag.com for featuring my in-depth look at the making of Wine Dark Deep #1! (Officially releasing on October 12.) This piece reveals my history with NASA, and how my hands-on experience with building museum exhibits led to this series.

I had the pleasure of joining some heavy hitters on the Time Capsule podcast. A really fun conversation!

"Interviews on this edition include author R. Peter Keith on his new space novel, graphic novel writers Chuck Austen and Jeremy Haun, Magical Girl Friendship Squad creator Kelsey Stephanides, and two of my favorite Klingons in JG Hertzler and Robert O'Reilly."

The reviews are already coming in and they are saying some very nice things about book 1. This is the perfect series for the reader in your life who loves a touch of realism in their space-based sci-fi!

But outer Space,
At least this far,
For all the fuss
Of the populace
Stays more popular
Than populous

- Robert Frost

I don't just play a space nerd in my novels, I also rep IRL! Haha. This selfie from my time with NASA before COVID, but wishing I still had access to this mask.

Book launch is happening October 12th. Have you preordered your copy yet?

It takes a lot of fuel to power these bad boys.

Wine Dark Deep is not your Dad’s sci-fi. This action-packed series is designed to scratch the itch for those who want to explore strange new worlds through smart, escapist sci-fi.
