#WritersCoffeeClub Mar. 13: Talk about an experience when you consulted an expert for a piece of writing.
For #ZackJackson 2, I wrote the Hayden Planetarium & asked questions about unprotected exposure to the vacuum of space. They didn't respond.

#WordWeavers Mar. 4: When was the last time your MC lied?
For my current WiP, I'm don't recall my MC actually lying about anything. I'm sure #ZackJackson has lied about something now and again, and characters in my fantasy novels, too.

Book 6, #ZackJackson & The Ringworld of Sol is in development, and while I would like to say it will be available in autumn 2027, that is not a promise, because I know better than that. :P

As the sun sets on a mountain lakeshore city, an approaching space craft is reflected in the water, leaving a rippling wake. Art by Maria Damianou.
The fifth, and most recent book in the #ZackJackson series is The Ruins of Athos. Like Spider-Man, Zack is Far from Home, and if he gets home, he knows things will have changed, maybe not for the better.

The third #ZackJackson novel is The Hives of Valtra. The summer after book 1, Zack & the Junior Rangers take another trip, this time to the jungle homeworld of the Valtraxians. Naturally, because I live to torment Zack, STUFF HAPPENS.

A bear-like Ersidian, a human boy, a human girl, and a mantis-like Valtraxian on a desolate landscape with orange bluffs behind them--cover art for Zack Jackson & The Cult of Athos (original watercolor painting by Scott Christian Sava)
The #ZackJackson series is a young-adult sci-fi series that focuses on adventure and real science. While there are a few space opera elements, the majority of the science is based on real theory and astronautical engineering.

Landscape - As the sun sets on a mountain lakeshore city, an approaching space craft is reflected in the water, leaving a rippling wake. Art by Maria Damianou.
I can share the cover art for Zack Jackson & The Ruins of Athos (book 5 of the #ZackJackson series). The artwork was done by the talented Maria Damianou (one of my I Should Roll cast mates)
The odd texturing you may see (especially if you zoom in) will not appear on the actual covers.
