#WomenInSciFi Featuring The Host, Y. Correa

 

Featuring


Who is Y. Correa?

Y. Correa is a literary seductress, luring one in with her talent of Romancing the Words, keeping one hypnotized with dynamic characters, and stimulating one with engaging narrative voices, strong plots, and epic conflicts. Her writes are as complex and as distinct as her person; a delightful combination of eclectic and antiquated.

Therefore, the mere mention of fitting into one set genre is laughable. The multi-genre decadence is where she showcases her magnificence.

Y. Correa is also the creator and founder of All Authors Publishing House and all of its subsidiaries, as well as the now popular Facebook Group, "Talk Books To Me" a place where all authors from all walks of life can come to promote their works.

Y. Correa’s works include:

Solo Works

  • Historical Fiction “MarcoAntonio & Amaryllis”
  • Sci-Fi Mashup “The Earth 8-8-2 Saga" currently a 3 book collection, with an anticipated 7 books by the end of the series
  • Paranormal Romantic Drama "Lilith's Dominion"
  • Short Story Anthology coined after her catchphrase, "Dimensions of Literary Seduction"
  • Novelette "Peter Blade" a dark psychological drama

Anthology Participation

  • "Concordant Vibrancy: Unity"
  • "Holiday Keepsakes"
  • "Crackles of the Heart: Divergent Ink Book 1"
  • "Concordant Vibrancy: Vitality"
  • "Concordant Vibrancy: Lustrate"
  • "Pleasure Prints: Divergent Ink Book 2"
  • "Concordant Vibrancy: Inferno"

Upcoming Works Include

  • "Reversal" coming January 2021
  • "The Legacy of MarcoAntonio and Amaryllis" Date of release is yet to be determined
  • "Genesis Ellipse ..." Date of release is yet to be determined

Apart from being a prolific Mulit-Genre author, Ms. Y. Correa is also the Founder and President of All Authors Publishing House. She considers herself an avid reader, a dedicated mother, a great friend, a committed family member, a great cook and complicated in an uncomplicated sort of way.

What are her Science Fiction Contributions?

Y. Correa is a fecund writer with several Science Fiction works in her arsenal. However, her love for the Earth 8-8-2 Saga stands above all. Therefore, today we will share the complexities of that saga with you.
To learn more about the Earth 8-8-2 Saga, visit its Website. You can also learn more about Y. Correa's other works by visiting her Website.


Earth 8-8-2: The Genesis Project, Blurb:

Could Science Serve as Salvation?

One-fourth Human.
One-fourth God.
One-fourth Superhuman.
One-fourth Vampire.

For Dr. Scott, the combined strengths of each life form represent the answer to the onslaught of malice and tyranny plaguing his Earth. When his creation—Genesis—begins developing, the lines between scientist and father become blurred. Soon the time approaches where Genesis is expected to fulfill her purpose. Does she go along willingly, or will her rapid evolution obliterate everyone’s best laid plans?

Earth 8-8-2: Genesis' Rebellion, Blurb:

What happens when Science’s Instrument of Salvation blazes her own path?

In the second installment of the Earth 8-8-2 saga, Genesis is heartbroken, disillusioned, but most of all … angry: angry that she has no say-so in the narrative of her own purpose. In the absence of choice, the only response that makes sense is rebellion.
As Genesis elicits the intensity of her powers, General Townsen must act quickly to develop a counterbalance to this previous experiment gone askew. Will the General’s army rise effectively against this unlikely nemesis, or will all see the literal overtures of what occurs when powers that be attempt to regulate true evolution?

Earth 8-8-2: Armageddon's Rise, Blurb:

In the midst of Genesis' emotional Armageddon comes an Armageddon ... of a different kind.

From the residual carnage arises Experiment-8-8-2.1, Project Armageddon. He desperately seeks the answers to his own existence. Upon searching, Armageddon is confronted by the blinding fury of Genesis, which serves as an unwelcome hindrance until the timely interjection of Dr. Anicom Zenit.
When Experiment-8-8-2.1's origins and purpose is divulged, will Armageddon continue to rise? Or will the exquisite apex of scientific rebellion known as Genesis remain a formidable deterrent of progress?

Harmony Kent is famous for her laughter, and has made quite the name for herself … she’s also, um, a writer … and fairly well known for that too. She lives in rural Cornwall with her ever-present sense of humour, adorable husband, and quirky neighbours.

What is her Science Fiction Contribution?


Blurb:

WHEN EVERYTHING FALLS APART, WHAT CAN YOU DO?


The year is 3040.

The location is Exxon 1, part of a six-planet system in settled space.
Determined to avoid the mistakes of old Earth, the surviving humans avoided democracy and opted, instead, for a non-elective totalitarian system.
The new way worked well, until now.
A crazy, despotic president releases a nano-virus on the population.
No one was ready for the fallout. It came anyway.
In this post-apocalyptic world, can you stay safe?

Praise for FALLOUT:
'If you like dark, dangerous, and a little bit demented, this is the novel for you.' ... Staci Troilo
'Fallout by Harmony Kent is a dark, gritty, twisted apocalyptic story guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat.'... Mae Clair

What are her Sci-Fi Contributions?


Gnotret Blurb:

​While he doesn't like the sound of the experimental drug trial his girlfriend Amy Veksler found a flyer for on campus, George Ormond still lets himself be persuaded to join it. He,Amy, and three other students go to a warehouse where Doctor Adam Carnesby, the biology professor who's running the study, has everything set up for the month long trial. Everything seems to be going well even though all five of the students become sick for a week after their first injections. At the start of the second week, they all recover, feeling better than ever. Then, they start to discover that there were more side effects to the drug than just a cold.

Expansion Blurb:

With Amy, Sandra, and Michael gone, George and Billy feel at loose ends. Then Dr. Carnesby informs them that The Corporation wants to continue testing Gnotret and they want him to put together another trial with more volunteers. George and Billy agree to help, wondering how things might go wrong this time.

Escalation Blurb:

The second group who participated in the medical trial has splintered, just as the first had. Rose, Brandy, and Nick choose to remain with Dr. Carnesby and the others in the effort to deal with Sandra, Michael, and Amy. Eric decides to join forces with Sandra, craving some of the fame and wealth she is accruing.
Meanwhile, Elyse and Darryl start work with Lucian and the Corporation. Things seem to be going well but both are asked to do some difficult things. Soon, both will have to decide if using their abilities for the Corporation is truly what they want to do.
Gnotret, the alien being behind the abilities each person has developed, has its own plans. And now, it's finally in a position to start putting those plans into action.

Deceit Blurb:

Things come to a head with Sandra and the others. During their confrontation, Amy's madness returns. Can George and the others prevail and save Amy and Michael from Sandra? And there is another problem brewing. Wendy, who had escaped from the second trial without developing abilities, has fallen ill with the same flu-like symptoms and nightmares the rest of them had. Meanwhile, Darryl realizes that his mission for the Corporation isn't as cut and dried as Lucian made it seem. He discovers what his ability is actually being used for as well as what Elyse's mission really was. Neither of which is a very comfortable discovery.

Victory Blurb:

​Gnotret takes steps towards its ultimate goal as it draws Lucian and Katrina into the fold. Meanwhile, Wendy and Billy work on healing Amy. Friction continues to grow between Elyse and Darryl in the wake of discovering what their respective missions for Lucian really entailed. When Jane and Dr. Carnesby realize exactly what Gnotret is, they can’t keep it a secret from the others. And when that information is shared, the group decides there is only one course of action. Can George and the others defeat Gnotret before it completes its plans? The thrilling conclusion to The Accidental Heroes Chronicles will answer that question and more.

Victory: The Alternate Ending Blurb:

This is an alternate ending to Victory, book 5 of The Accidental Heroes Chronicles. It is only available as an ebook.
