GM Steenrod describes his process and background of his latest science fiction novel, "Tomorrow: Love and Troubles." Cassie is an artist celebrated across the two planets. She was born into a world that has seen climate catastrophe, unstable governments, giant quantum computers, and routine space travel. From that crucible of change, a new culture with the delicacy of a spider web has risen. Ca...

That night, we fille...

A few years after the world premiere of Princess Isabelle at the 1999 Worldfest International Film Festival, I finally sat down and recorded the director's commentary. I reached back into my memory to recount funny stories, challenges we overcame, moments of serendipity and synchronicity, flashes of inspiration, and just plain dumb luck.

It was a real community effort produced ...
