The Future Starts Here Day Two: Insurgence

 

*Intensely stares at computer screen waiting for a deep connection, to both universal internet and potential reader*

Cosmic greetings to you brethren! Welcome to day two of the ‘Kindred Spirits’ promotional blitz. Come in to my Mrasianart music room and put your feet up by my tuba. Yes you’re on Mras now. Nice and warm isn’t it? No that’s not a typo by the way, it’s not ‘Mars’; we’re a long way from your solar system, in fact other at the opposite end of the universe – we are there, you just haven’t discovered us yet, that’s all. Gosh what weird legs you Humans have, I bet you can’t even play music with them. How did any species ever evolve without the in-built ability to carry their music around with them everywhere? I’m Auberon by the way, pleased to meet you. I guess I’m what you Humans might call a grasshopper with ideas above my station. No, don’t reach for the fly-swat! I’m peaceful, honest!

I have chosen you to impart this special message because your chakras seem particularly wide open to understanding the urgency of intergalactic contact and peace in the times to come. I know first-hand how dangerous people can be to off-worlders they don’t understand them but you seem different, more evolved somehow. That’s why I’m here you see, to prepare you for what’s to come in another hundred years or so, thanks to my role as second host of the ‘Kindred Spirits’ series celebrating the re-issue of the entire 8 volume scifi-romance-action-comedy-philosophy series ‘Kindred Spirits’ now available for kindle and in paperback with new illustrations by an amazingly talented artist from your planet Earth (I’ve never known such a rueles-coloured aura in a Human before, but I sense a part of it in a lot of you Human viewers I’m speaking to too: you’re very open-minded and big-hearted I can tell. Which of course is why you’re all going to buy lots of books!)
I’m from second book ‘Insurgence’, in which a Human named Eleanor comes to my planet to escape Earth because she’s heard it’s a spiritual haven full of fortune-tellers, tarot readers, tranquillity, equality and music. She’s pretty wonderful: I couldn’t ask for a better guitar accompanist or a better mother to our hybrid child, Eleron. Exactly the sort of brave, kind, resilient soul who gives me faith in other people. Harmony that’s all both of us had ever wanted in every meaning of the word – and we had it for a blissful while there too. Only our new president Almathea is too busy learning from Human history how to be a prejudiced tyrant hoarding things for himself. Good job we put our Intergalactic Peace Orchestra together to make our voices heard about what the people really think away from the lies and propaganda – though how well that goes you’ll have to read for yourself. As a bonus our future intergalactic best-seller includes a sneak preview of the 23rd century’s biggest hits ‘We Reach Out’ and ‘We Are All One Universe (And We’re Only 87 Quadzillion Light Years Apart’). Or you can have a watch of the ‘Insurgence’ video by another very talented Human creative (Wow two of you - I’ve never known such wide open chakras in a species that weren’t Mrasianarts before!)

You can buy it here, in ebook or in paperback formats. Sadly no 3rd century holovision editions around yet but you've got that to look foward to! amzn.to/4bZ1VOR

Remember, the future starts here. But if you can’t wait for tomorrow then come visit the website www.kindredspiritbooks.blogspot.com (you can even find out which alien you most resemble in our fun quiz!), buy the ‘Kindred Spirits’ merch to be added as soon as our century’s timeline synchronises with yours at www.redbubble.com/people/AlansArchives (who wouldn’t want a Mrasianart Universal case, sorry mobile phone case?! Although sadly there are no musical instruments available with my face on as yet – I so love the wazullah!) Or if you want to do things the easy way just look out for one of the Mekkion time-travel machines from the future! Then again you could just immerse yourself in eleven whole other worlds by buying the e-books, paperbacks or the two compendiums over at Amazon Convergence I: rebrand.ly/yoleg4l Convergence II: rebrand.ly/izcovt7 (plus they’re all free for Kindle Unlimited users, where they can nestle against your other books in perfect harmony).
Right, that is my mission of peace over. Another alien will be along to meet you tomorrow. Farewell dear Human! Till we meet again. Remember always reach out in the darkness to help a friend – and always be aware that while there’s a lot of darkness in space oh those beautiful starry flecks of hope shine so brightly…
