The year is 2030. A Category 5 hurricane makes landfall in southern Florida. After decades of rising sea levels, the incredible storm surge caused by Hurricane Florence is enough to leave the city of Miami underwater. As the storm clears, it becomes painfully obvious that the waters won't recede anytime soon. Many of the city's inhabitants become refugees, and the few that remain will have to struggle to make their city livable again.

This is the premise of Goodbye Miami.

Goodbye Miami is a climate fiction blog that tells the tale of Kass, an American climate refugee who flees Miami in the wake of Hurricane Florence. Since it's the tale of a refugee, much of the story takes place outside of Miami. Wherever the main character travels, though, the story is always an exploration of the causes and consequences of climate change.

I invite and encourage you to check out Goodbye Miami. For the full effect, start from the beginning and work your way forward to the "present" (today's date in 2030). If you like what you see, please share it with your friends. You can even become a supporting character in the story by posting a comment from the perspective of someone who lives in 2030. The comments are moderated, so if I like your comment, I will approve it. I can also change your username to whatever character name you like.

Thanks for your interest and support! I look forward to hearing your feedback about Goodbye Miami. In the meantime, if you enjoyed Change, have no fear. I'm still working on Order, the next book in that series. I find it very helpful to work on at least two projects at once. That way, at any given moment, I'm bound to feel motivated and inspired to write at least one of them!

My new climate fiction novel, Order, is now available for pre-order!

Order will be released on October 31, 2019. Pre-order the Kindle edition today and have it delivered to your device automatically when it's ready. If you prefer the print version, check back here on October 31 for the link. Be sure to sign up for my newsletter to ensure that you don't miss this and other news about my fiction and superhero adventures.

The basic premise of Order is simple. If you had all the power in the world, would you stop climate change?

Truman Stuart is a man on a mission. As the new Preceptor of Order, it’s his job to oversee the survival and progress of human civilization. When he discovers that climate change poses an existential threat to humanity, the Preceptor knows that he has to find a way to stop it. But how can he solve a global crisis that his own organization and its powerful fossil fuel allies helped create?

Order is a contemporary fantasy tale featuring a powerful secret society, glimpses of magic and hypertech, an underground resistance called Anomalous Revolution, and a colorful cast of characters that the Preceptor meets along the way as he searches for solutions to the climate crisis.

Order is the sequel to my first novel, Change. You can read Order before, after, or independently of Change. It explores several of the major events of Change from a different perspective, while also exploring many new events not referenced in Change.

Change explores the climate crisis from an "outsider" or "activist" perspective. Order explores it from an "insider" or "establishment" perspective. They can be read separately, but reading them both (in your preferred order) will provide for a more nuanced experience of the underlying themes.

Are you ready for Order? Let me know if you have any questions about this new novel or my other writing projects. I look forward to hearing what readers have to say about Order. I'm also available for author interviews and can provide digital review copies of Order to book reviewers and members of the media.
