"Your Average Ordinary Alien" by Adam Graham made me laugh out loud. Andrea Graham provided thoughtful depth in "Frozen Generation."
From Karina Fabian, Virtual Book Tour de 'Net
"Your Average Ordinary Alien" by Adam Graham: Another chuckler. I love the idea of a hard core SF fan being abducted by
aliens and finding out they aren't so different from us after all. Kirk Skywalker (he changed his name) summed it up best:
"I finally get to meet an alien and he tells me that you're just flying green WASPs."
Variety married with solid writing makes this a keeper . . . . Travel . . . inside an alien spaceship in "Your Average
Ordinary Alien."
... Andrea Graham's "Frozen Generation" explores the possibility of technology bringing frozen fetuses to term
artificially, resulting in humans being used for spare parts. One woman tries to save as many babies as possible by smuggling
them away and saving them from an uncertain future.
It's so hard to pick out the best among so many magnificent tales, but I have to say my [second favorite is] "Your Average
Ordinary Alien" by Adam Graham, where an abduction scenario isn't quite like one sci-fi fan imagined it would be.
"It is a wonderful thing to be sure of one's calling as Adam is! That's terrific.
You seem to be fully utilizing all the resources available to you, too, Adam. Good for you! God has given you wisdom at
a young age--you will only grow in wisdom and knowledge."
Also from Chris, commenting on our Lost Genre Guild Interviews (see media section for links):
"That is quite an interview--you always know where you stand with Andrea!
I like the attitude [she has] of being salt and light in that particular genre, where salt and light seem to be scarce.
I also like the fact that Andrea and her husband work so closely together. That's lovely."
I applaud your political acumen, Adam. I've just never been able to wade in like you have, aside from showing up to vote.
That's a marvelous gift though, and added to your writing talents, you are definitely taking a stand for Christ. I commend
you!
Insightful interview! You and Andrea make a great team.
"Andrea's Biblical speculative fiction is all-pro. She and I critiqued each other's contributions to the Light at the Edge
of Darkness anthology, and my pieces are stronger because of her. This woman knows how to write."
“Andrea is a writer who has the talent to bring her imagination to life through an amazing fictional tale, but yet also
is able to pull in all the facts to create an accurate non-fictional article that speaks the truth.”
“Andrea has consistently proven herself to be a knowledgeable and talented writer of Biblical speculative fiction.She
is goal-oriented and holds high expectations for herself but at the same time is a very creative writer who is confident pushing
the boundaries of traditional-accepted Christian fiction.”
