New Video for "Blind Fool Running"



This winter I still plan to publish my second literary novella, The Truth Is a Lone Assassin, but a lot of people don't know anything about my first literary novella, Blind Fool Running. So I made a new promotional video for it in January 2013 and this is it.

I'm primarily a science fiction author but I also write "literary science fiction" under the pen name Jonco Bugos. When my second novella is out in paperback and "Live" in Amazon's Kindle Store I'll post the new video for that book on at least one of my blogs (the footer at A Portrait of the Author as an old Man) and I'll embed it on the "News" page at michaelcasher.com and on the Jonco Bugos Page at Science Fiction for Thinkers.com, from the SciFiforThinkers Channel at YouTube.

Like most book "movies", this video is good, but the book is even better. Thanks for watching. Post Updated 3-10-13 to add video links for "The Truth Is a Lone Assassin"

Little Green Man from Mars

I finished writing Little Green Man from Mars yesterday. It's my sixth and final addition to the Science Fiction for Thinkers series. My plans are to publish this work in early 2007.

No, it's not about a Martian.

Science Fiction for Thinkers

I don't write comic book sci-fi. There are no capes and swords, no hooded ghouls or superheroes in my books. That's called Fantasy which is often confused with Science Fiction.

Someone once asked me if I write the kind of books Stephen King writes. I told him no, that I don't write Horror. Besides, when you unmask real life, what you see is a lot spookier and astonishing than anything purely imaginary, and that's what I do.

I take an average American town or an average day in the life of an average man or woman and I peek under that rock and expose the supernatural roller-coaster ride that runs beneath it all. And on that ride many battles are won and lost and many unlikely heroes emerge and all of it seems so real. And that’s because most of it really is. And that's because there's a lot more to life than what we see, hear, smell, taste or feel. And much, much more than we think.
