I think I have solved man's space travel problems once and for all. I mean, the biggest issue getting people into space is water, right? Well, that and oxygen and radiation and...well...lots of other things...But if we could solve the water problem, we'd be set. RIGHT?
So here it is. The solution. Only problem is...and it's a small, teeny tiny problem, if even one at all. The dehydrated water needs water to re-hydrate it. Gimme a minute...I'll work on it LOL

Here is an awesome review of Time of the
Soul from Literary Nymphs. Click here
to view it.
Excerpt:
I don’t know whether I said yes or not,
but in what seemed an instant, I was in some sort of house
overlooking the ocean. I guessed we were on the golden mile
in Thomas’s home. It was lavish, probably too nice. Everything
looked expensive, from the pictures on the walls to the vases on
display on fancy plinths. Even the furniture looked as though it
be... Continue reading ...
I wrote 20,000 words in two days of a story that took me and my muse by
the scruff of the neck and wouldn't let go. What's more, I even did a
mock-up cover and the synopsis! I have about 10,000 to write...wonder if
I can finish it tomorrow *giggle* It's my first full menage story and
so far I am having a blast writing it. (Off to my beta readers for this
one, my pretty) Here's the synopsis and cover I did, just to
tease (here's the link to the official page here, too) :-)“A boy reache... Continue reading ...

Well, I've been in hospital...again! How did it happen this time? Well, over the weekend I experienced a sharp, shooting pain in my left leg. I immediately panicked, thinking I had another DVT (Those who know what I've been through this year will know all about that) So I went to the doctor, who in turn and also concerned, told me to get to the hospital for scans as quick as I could. He did the referrals and all that straight away.
By this stage my blood pressure was through the roof, and I ... Continue reading ...

Just
got word, this very second, that "The Nourisher", has been accepted by

love with the most adorable character ever, an 8ft hairy alien spider. I
swear you will.
Thanks to Patty and Michele for beta reading

Dear editor (of said unnamed
publication)
I, Mark Alders, am hereby withdrawing my submission
to your publication. The novel, titled, "The Nourisher", has been in
your company for more than 7 months, far too long for you to just sit on
it with no word as to it status.
What's more, after numerous
unanswered queries, it has come time for me to decide the fate of my
work and build my career without your publication. I find it truly
unprofessional that you haven't even bothered to email me ... Continue reading ...

About Me
I am Mark Alders, writer, intactivist, post office worker, and all round nice guy...except when someone steals my chocolate! I am a proud Australian, and as such use different spellings and have some weird phrases, too. Hey, perhaps that's why I write some damn weird shit!
I can't change who I am.
So when you read one of my books, enjoy the ride, but please don't say I can't spell. I spell how I damn well feel like it! LOL Naw seriously, I spell like an Aussie...do forgive me because we are a breed unto ourselves. Where else can a place have 11 registered public holidays and no one has any idea what they are for except to have a BBQ and down some beers!
If you do find a genuine error in my work, please let me know so I can speak with my editor...also, as an addition to that, offer chocolates as well. Lots of chocolates.
*hugs*
Mark
