Every now and then I come across a Kickstarter project that I think our readers would really enjoy. This is one of them. I have no connections to the creators, but this is exactly the sort of vintage adventure story that inspired the formation and mission of Noble Worlds Press.

If you could support them with a like or pledge to help ensure the success of the campaign, it would be much appreciated. I'd really love for this project to see the light of day.

Thank you!

It's a pretty cool discovery, as well as potential story fodder for future books. - MP

Astronomers using the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii have found an object orbiting the sun beyond Pluto called 2023 KQ14 — but nicknamed Ammonite.

Despite some narrative flaws, it's a fun popcorn flick and worth seeing in the theater. My wife and I loved it! 🙂

This is a huge blow to publishers and authors, but there is hope:

“Legal experts expect the decision to be appealed. And the Authors Guild, in its statement, said that "we remain confident that appeals courts will reverse the fair use finding and recognize that this systematic copying for commercial gain violates fundamental copyright principles that have protected authors for generations."

A federal judge in California has issued a complicated ruling in one of the first major copyright cases involving AI training, finding that while using books to train AI models constitutes fair use, downloading pirated books was a violation of copyright.

So, this just happened at the local SummerCon convention that I attended this weekend with fellow author, J. Brandon Barnes.

In honor of MONARCH, my upcoming novel about giant space bees (https://nobleworlds.com/monarch/), we're celebrating Pollinator Week!

Our pollinator-friendly backyard garden is coming along nicely, and we'll be posting pics later on this summer. But what about yours?

Send us your garden pics, we'd love to see and share them! :)

Happy everyone! 🎉🐝🦋🦇 This week marks our 19th consecutive year of bringing greater awareness to the critically important issue of pollinator conservation since we founded the initiative in 2007. Visit our Pollinator Week pages on our website for amazing resources and to learn more at the link in our bio.

We have so many exciting giveaways, announcements, and all things pollinators coming your way this week! Check our page The Pollinator Partnership and Pollinator Partnership Canada's page Pollinator Partnership Canada to stay up to date!

One of the most anticipated events will be the Pollinator Power Party co-hosted with the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The virtual party will include riveting case studies, fun activities for all ages, and useful resources to make Pollinator Week every week. Join the party at pollinatorpowerparty.org
