Thank you so much for inviting me. I appreciate the opportunity to say a few words about myself and my writing. My next project is another SciFi story called THE TEST. It's about three college professors who are all that's left after everyone else on Earth mysteriously disappears. This story is still in the 'working' stage. Here is a description of my main characters:
WALTER LEWIS – aged 43, 6” 2. Not handsome but stunning in his meticulous appearance and demeanor. Work oriented ex-marine. Walter is a rule follower and has little patience for those who don't. His suits, shirts, ties and shoes expensive and perfectly matched; his tall, muscular body filling them out in ways the manufacturer could never imagine. Walter's life is his work, his regimen. People find him moral, respectable, hard working, aloof, unapproachable, a perfectionist in everything he does. A deeply closeted gay. Teaches World History.
NICK TRAVIS – aged 33, 6”, shaggy but styled, blond hair, green eyes. A born hell raiser – handsome, friendly, outgoing. No main goals in life beyond the pleasure of the moment. Students love him, fellow teachers dislike him. People either admire him for his free-spirited ways or dislike him for bucking the establishment. He is considered a rogue, a rascal, by his peers.
His favorite meal is pizza, often eating it cold the next morning for breakfast. He detests drinking water and thinks beer is the world's greatest invention. He considers sleep a waste of time, and believes whole-heartedly that life was meant for having fun.
He is openly bi-sexual and doesn't shy away from expressing his opinions about sex which is basically that everyone should indulge as often as possible. He usually manages to loop the discussion back to his main subject. Teaches American History.
DAVID WINSLOW – aged 30, 5” 10, thin, wiry, glasses cover his hazel eyes, brown hair. Attractive in a college professor kind of way. Studious – always deep in thought and carrying an arm full of folders, graphs and charts pertaining to his latest research project. Brilliant. No one really knows him, no close friends.
David grew up in a home of privilege, the best part of town, raised mostly by nannies, chauffeured back and forth to private schools. An only child, he grew up alone, with books and tutors his only companions. He has one passion in life and one only—learning. Nothing else matters to him. He dresses impeccably, not by choice but out of habit. Asexual. Teaches Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology of Human Behavior.

Synopsis
LAPD Detective Sean Hennessey has one person he’s repeatedly tried to arrest and bring to justice: his nemesis, Mitchell Yates.
Yates has been in and out of trouble for years, always skating around the edges of LA’s underbelly; however, Sean can never pin anything on him.
But one night all of that changes.
Caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, instead of arresting Yates, Sean is rescued by him and taken to Yates’ home—a satellite high above Earth. There, Sean discovers a world he thought possible only in Science Fiction.
Everything he believed he knew about Yates is turned upside down, and Sean must make a decision: to remain with the LAPD or join Yates and work toward intergalactic peace.
DONNA McINTOSH was born in Elmira, New York, grew up in Phoenix, Arizona, married a Texan and has lived all over Texas for the last thirty-plus years. Donna has four children, ran a Day Care Center for many years and has written fan fiction since she was thirteen.
Donna loves long walks so her mind can ramble. She loves reading and her tastes run from Historical novels, to Sci-Fi, Westerns, Classics, all the way to WWII and biographies. In short, anything that catches her eye.
Donna loves total quiet, very little TV, occasional movies, wildlife, beaches, birds, cats, newborn babies, flowers, and great big smiles. Oh, and hugs!
She hates flying, total darkness, people who talk endlessly about themselves, intolerance, and bigotry.
Donna’s biggest asset? Her wild and endless imagination.
Her biggest flaw? She’s a Libran and simply cannot make a decision!
