C.M. Simpson's short science-fiction story is now available for pre-order from Smashwords. It will be released on July 2, 2016, across all platforms.
When planet-colonist, Joaquin, takes his
daughter, Ry, into the autumn forest to show her the danger lurking amongst the
trees, he does not expect to end the day fleeing for his life, nor does he
think he can discover more about the spider-like orsovite, or what happened to
his wife, one short year ago, but autumn is a time when the leaves fall, and
secrets are uncovered.

NEW RELEASES THIS WEEK: Legacy of Hope, Legacy of Hearts by Carlie Simonsen
This week, we released two more books in Carlie Simonsen's Wheelchair Adventures Legacy series:
Legacy of Hope: released on June 20:
Sean is finally home, but
everything he hoped for is gone. As far as he can tell, his life is over. His
dreams of becoming a garden designer seem done, because he can’t dig or weed.
He can’t see how he can be of any use in the School Gardens Program, he used to
help to run. And he can’t kick a ball, or ride a skateboard, so how can he
continue to be the buddy of a boy who loves to do both? And as for his
girlfriend, Angelica… well, Sean feels he has no choice but to send her away.
After all, she’ll be better off with a guy who can walk, won’t she?
Unfortunately, Angelica and his little buddy Brian have other plans. They just
need to get Sean to see that he’s not so useless after all…
Legacy of Hope is a teen to young adult story about how Sean learns
to cope with losing his ability to walk, and to see that there is still might
be a way to do the things he loves. But even the strongest person needs a
little help to learn to hope again.
Legacy of Hope is the second book in the Wheelchair Adventures series, which is based around young people
getting their wheels underneath them, after they find themselves in
wheelchairs.
Legacy of Hope is available from Amazon, Smashwords, DriveThruFiction, OmniLit, CreateSpace.
Legacy of Hearts on June 24:
Dumped by her boyfriend,
Tomas, because she ended up in a wheelchair, Stella has to rebuild her life. If
she hadn’t met Ambrose in hospital, she might never have thought of playing
basketball again, but he was just a friend. She never expected to see him when
she got out. It comes as a total surprise, when Ambrose meets Stella after her
first basketball game in a chair. More surprising is his request to see her
again. Can Stella afford to let him keep visiting, or will he end up being just
as much of a disaster as Tomas had been?
Legacy of Hearts is the third book in the Wheelchair Adventures series, which is based around young people
getting their wheels underneath them, after they find themselves in
wheelchairs.
Legacy of Hearts is available from Amazon, Smashwords, DriveThruFiction, OmniLit, CreateSpace.

C.M. Simpson: Short Work from 2014, Vol.2: Science Fiction Large Print PoD |
A collection of flash fiction, short stories,
poems and essays where science fiction explores future possibilities and
tragedies, where hopes and dreams are held and lost, and where cyberware stands
alongside shapeshifters and starships. The poems here either explore these
futures, or are written as though they were created by someone in those
futures. This is the realm of the starborn and starbound, and of futures that
might never be.

When Rocky finally reaches Tallona, he crash lands.
The cargo pod carrying his beloved pony Tank is dropped in, and radio
communications are lost with the colony and the space ship. To make matters
worse, there is a pack of velociraptors nesting right near the crash site. With
help a long way away, someone has to reach the horses and set them free, and
the only way to stop his little sister from trying to do just that, is to go
himself. Can Rocky sneak out of a dropship full of adults, reach the horses, and
then get to the colony before the raptors eat him? With the help of the alien
girl, Elita, he can only try.
