Discovery
2017
This is the tale of Myr Sevii, a young woman who discovers a field that suppresses static electrical effects and warps space in a fashion to attract protons. It’s a hard Science Fiction exploration of what might happen if you were able to pull protons into a tiny volume and, having suppressed static repulsion, crush them together. The story examines how this new discovery affects Myr and will soon affect the world around her. Changes abound, in the company Myr works for, in the people around her, and in her family. So many unexpected technological revolutions are happening at the same time that it’s hard for Myr and her friends to come to grips with them. When word of the inventions gets out, vultures gather—wanting the tech for themselves. Some of those people will kill to get what they want…

Lifter
2017
This is the continuing tale of Myr Sevii, a young woman who discovered a field that suppresses static electrical effects and warps space in a fashion that attracts protons. In Proton Field #1, she and Vinn discovered they could fuse hydrogen. Now she’s exploring the warping of space and its effects on hydrogen containing molecules nearby. The story examines how this warping makes it possible to achieve reactionless thrust that can lift people… and move spacecraft. In the midst of this excitement, Myr’s friend Ellen’s brother gets captured by Abu Sayyaf terrorists while on a charity mission in the Philippines. At first there doesn’t seem like there’s anything anyone can do, but gradually it becomes evident that the new technology might offer solutions for his situation as well. Just as it seems that they might have solved Mark’s situation, Myr’s brother Connor, afflicted with muscular dystrophy, goes into heart failure. Myr had an idea for treatment of that problem too, but will she be allowed to try such a radical solution?
