Fletcher DeLancey spent her early career as a science educator, which was the perfect combination of her two great loves: language and science. These days she combines them while writing science fiction.

She is an Oregon expatriate who left her beloved state when she met a Portuguese woman and had to choose between home and heart. She chose heart. Now she lives with her wife and son in the beautiful sunny Algarve, where she writes full-time, teaches Pilates, tries to learn the local birds and plants, and samples every regional Portuguese dish she can get her hands on. (There are many. It’s going to take a while.)

She is best known for her science fiction/fantasy series, Chronicles of Alsea, now comprised of four novels and a novella. Among th

At the same time, I am in the editing process for Book 4 (Catalyst), which is confusingly being published after Book 5 (Vellmar the Blade). Yes, it's a numerical mess but it will only be that way until December 7, when Book 4 is released. After that, everything will be in order again.

There has been much understandable confusion about Books 4 and 5 not being released in order. I chose to do it that way because Vellmar the Blade is not a full-sized book, nor is it truly part of the main story arc, and I had many readers anxious for something to tide them over until the next full novel. So Vellmar the Blade was a gift to my readers, and I hope that whatever confusion the publication order may have caused is outweighed by the enjoyment of not having to wait an entire year before being able to dive back into Alsea.(less)

Hope, an unfamiliar emotion

[image error]

All right, I’m going to say this out loud. I didn’t want to vote for Joe Biden.

I was angry and disillusioned when the most diverse collection of presidential candidates in US history dwindled down to…an old White man. After watching sexism and outright misogyny destroy Hillary Clinton’s campaign and saddle the world with Trump, it was excruciating to watch sexism rear its head onc

“Under the eye of Fahla, who sees all, I speak so that all may hear. I love Andira Shaldone Tal. Her happiness is my ambition; her well-being is my purpose. All that is mine I place freely at her disposal, including my heart and my life, which I would gladly lay down to protect hers. This I swear in Fahla’s name. I am Salomen Arrin Opah, and I ask this of you: Will you speak for Mother and all of our ancestors, and accept Andira into our family?”
Fletcher DeLancey, Without A Front: The Warrior's Challenge

“Salomen, Andira, I hear your petition. Under the eye of Fahla, who connects our past with our future, and in the name of my beloved Nashta and all of our ancestors, I say that Andira Shaldone Tal is now one of our family. May our descendants rejoice in this bond, which enriches our family beyond measure.” Tal dried her own eyes with her free”
Fletcher DeLancey, Without A Front: The Warrior's Challenge

“The beautiful pain," Lanaril said. "That's what one of our oldest writers called it. The beautiful pain of remembrance and longing. A pain that only exists when we have loved, when we know what we're missing.”
Fletcher DeLancey, Alsea Rising: Gathering Storm
