Appended here is a link my novel To Sail the Purest Sea. It is nominally a science fiction novel, but in it I attempt to invert or outright sabotage many of the tropes of conventional SF. There are no great space battles with buckets of human blood spilled. Unlike much SF it does not brutally eliminate potentially beloved characters. It has strong intelligent women characters who nevertheless are not ashamed of their femininity. It has time travel, that isn't. It has aliens, that aren't.
Whatever anyone thinks it might have, it probably doesn't. It is very un-woke, yet it freely explores the roots of human fear, joy, love, sexuality, and the preservation of sapience. Be advised that the book contains a good deal of adult material, but it is lovingly sensual and not the least bit pornographic. It is not intended to offend anyone, but of course that is very difficult to avoid now. So be it.
Originally published in 2019, it is now available again in a revised edition.
