Hoganthology, Alien Dimensions #19, and The Robots of Atlantis

By NeilA

Well, it’s been a busy few months. Quite a lot of writing and reading is involved in the creative writing degree I began this year, and that means not much time to work on anything else.

Having said that, I will get a break from the course between November and February, so I’ve set that time aside to begin work on Alien Dimensions #19 and The Robots of Atlantis.

Though, one of the things that I really want to do with Alien Dimensions is make sure that writers who contribute get something back. This is currently US$10 for a story for the rights for 2 years. It may not seem like much, but on a writer’s income, it’s no longer possible for me to pay that in advance and hope that I get it back through sales of the book.

So, instead, I’m trying something new. I’d like to raise some funds for the next issue of Alien Dimensions, so I’ve put many of my science fiction and fantasy stories into one volume called Hoganthology (the title is a homage to Piers Anthony’s ‘Anthonology’) There are over 47 pieces in Hoganthology. If printed, it would run to about 800 pages in a 5″x8″ book, but it is currently listed on Amazon as having about 600 in ebook form (depending on your device.)

In Hoganthology you’ll find the following:

Section 1 – Short Stories

A Little Matter
The Opposition

Temporal Incursion: Stellar Flash Book Three

By Neil A. Hogan

Dangerous temporal disturbances are appearing throughout the Proxima Centauri system, and 27 scientists have gone missing from the Frequency Research Institute’s base on Proxibee.

When Admiral Victoria Heartness declines the request to help, she mysteriously disappears, too.

Doctor John Patel quickly enlists Admiral Wei Zhou to manage the station, and look into Heartness’ disappearance. But with builderbot’s going rogue and attacking some of the station’s residents, Zhou’s hands get full pretty quickly. 

Captain Jonathan Hogart would be the next best person to help track down Heartness, but then the Stellar Flash ship goes offline, internal doors stop working, and rooms start being erased. With just Raj Kumar and the ship’s Japanese avatar available, and no access to communications or flash jumps, Hogart is unable to even get his crew on board.

In desperation, Patel requests Commander Sue Lin of the Proxima Centauri Space Force to investigate the F.R.I hive,and find Heartness. But with her soldiers being wiped out by a crazed energy cloud, it’s all she can do to stop herself from destroying the base from orbit.

With micro time particles converging, a deadly alien entity expanding, a robot uprising spreading, and flash ship problems increasing, can the Stellar Flash crew get to Proxibee in time to not only rescue Heartness, but also prevent Commander Lin from making a mistake that could destroy the entire universe?

Temporal Incursion is Book Three in the Stellar Flash series. A self-contained story of about 63,000 words.

World UFO Day 2nd July

By NeilA

World UFO Day 2nd July

Science Fiction Aliens

When I was growing up, I was obsessed with science fiction books and attending conventions. I got to know many wonderful people throughout quite a number of different ‘codes’ – Doctor Who Clubs, Star Trek Clubs, Bablyon 5 clubs and more.

However, that tiny room off to the side that appeared at comic conventions and the like, devoted to ‘real’ aliens, didn’t appeal to me that much.

Thirty years later and I’ve just signed myself up as an ambassador for World UFO Day.

I guess times have changed. Or perhaps I have.

Real Aliens

The important thing about World UFO Day is to just help people become aware of what is above them. (Even harder these days with most people looking down at their mobiles!) There are a lot of organisations teaching people about aliens, and you can find anything you need to know searching Google.

But, I think the most important thing that has happened in the past 10 years is that many governments have released their materials to the public. Much of which can be easily accessed online.

Official Government UFO Archives

Here are a few of the larger databases:

UK National Archives UFO Files

US FBI UFO Files

US CIA UFO Files

Canada Library and Archives UFO Files

Australia National Archives UFO Files

Le GEIPAN, Groupe d’Études et d’Information sur les Phénomènes Aérospatiaux Non Identifiés fait partie intégrante des missions du Centre National d’Études Spatiales (CNES) is the official French government UFO research department. This site is a comprehensive archive, which also includes guides for teachers. Find out more here

The Denmark Airforce UFO files are now behind a login, but I have the 329pg pdf which you can download here: UFO_materiale

There are a lot more official government sites out there with UFO information, and many more governments releasing materials (I believe Germany will be next) so it’s not about whether you want to believe or not. It’s whether you’d like to get interested. If this is a subject for you, and you’d like to meet a real alien one day, going through the archives and familiarising yourself with the thousands of different types of alien craft, could go some way to acclimatising yourself for when Official First Contact takes place. (Sometime within the next 15 years.)

And, if you can’t wait for that to happen in normal reality, you can always try organising a more private contact experience yourself. Check out this book, and perhaps it’ll help you meet some aliens outside of normal reality!
