But on to some fun and interesting facts. I've got some weird news of the day to share.
Real life British superheroes find crime hard to find.
Two self-styled superheroes – The Dark Spartan and his sidekick The Black Void – have vowed to fight crime and deploy justice to their neighbourhood.
Just when you thought all the good guys were gone.

Sometimes odd news can help with a story idea, not to mention its pretty darn interesting. I once read about a woman who had sat on her toilet for around a year. Never leaving it. Her boyfriend would bring her dinner and everything. How's that for weird. I will be sharing odd news from now on....I think:)
OK, now to continue with genre descriptions, here is science fiction categories.
Hard science fiction: based on real science in the future. Scientific background may be as or more important than the characters.
Social science fiction: focus on how the character reacts to their environment.
Military science fiction: about war that feature traditional military organization and tactics in the future.
Cyberpunk: characters are tough outsiders in a high-tech society where computers have changed the way society functions.
Space Opera: traditional good guys vs. bad guys western. Puts emphasis on sweeping action and larger-than -life characters.
Alternate history: fantasy and sometimes some science fiction elements that changes history.
Steampunk: specific type of alternate history science fiction that is set in Victorian England in which characters have access to twentieth century technology.
New age: deals with subjects such as astrology, psychic phenomena, spiritual healing, UFOs etc...
Science fantasy: blend of traditional fantasy with scientific support.
Science fiction mystery: can be a traditional science fiction story with a mystery as a key plot point.
Science fiction romance: another blend with romance aspects threaded in.
Next up will be fantasy categories. Stay cool everyone. I know I'm trying...but it's not working. 109 degrees today :(
