Speaker Bio: Jen Finelli is a physician with PTSD who channels her chronic pain into helping others find purpose in their suffering and rest from their dragons. She's available to speak on the science of relaxation and wellness to help your audience turn their suffering into heroism - or, as the traditionally-published author of dark, inventive science fiction positively reviewed by some of the most exclusive publications in the country - to talk about finding the story and purpose in YOUR darkness.
Writing Bio: Jen Finelli is a world-traveling scifi author who's ridden a motorcycle in a monsoon, swum with sharks, crawled under barbed wire in the mud, and hiked everywhere from hidden coral deserts and island mountains to steaming underground urban tunnels littered with poetry. She was once locked inside a German nunnery, and recently had to find her way through swamp-filled Korean foothills dotted with graveyards on Friday the 13th under a full moon without a flashlight. On her quest to rescue stories often swallowed by the shadows, she's delivered babies, cradled the dying, and interviewed everyone from prostitutes to Senators. If you want cancer-fighting zombie fiction, dinosaur picture books, scientists jumping into volcanoes, or talking cars and peyote legislation, you might like Jen. You're welcome to download some of her stories for free at byjenfinelli.com/you-want-heroes-and-fairies, or join her quest to build a mobile indigent clinic for the forgotten at patreon.com/becominghero. Jen's a practicing MD, FAWM candidate, and sexual assault medical forensic examiner—but when she grows up, she wants to be a superhero.

Just another visual reminder that we all live in a science fiction, surrounded by mysterious and wonderful worlds bathed in physics and culture...let's explore Beyond, together. Img from Unsplash. #inspiration ................................................................About my novel NEODYMIUM EXODUS: Lem's a mace-wielding teen space-ninja in a universe of sentient insectoids, purple jungles, and insane electromagnetic fields. She solves most problems by hitting harder, and never plays by her enemy's rules—until she's kidnapped, and forced to choose between the energy being she adores and the matter beings she loves, while the fate of the Universe hangs in the balance. A blend of hard biomedical science fiction with multicultural fantasy, Neodymium Exodus combines the introspection of classics like Perelandra with the vibrant boldness of modern best-sellers like This Alien Shore and Space Opera. ............................................................... About NEODYMIUM BETRAYAL: On a normal day of mace-wielding duels and interplanetary sabotage, young Jei Bereens has things under control. He's plagued by night-terrors and an arch-enemy as slippery as the grime on his gun, but freedom fighters all around the galaxy look to him for help. He's got the favor of a mystical energy being and a best friend who'd die for him. On a normal day, Jei is legend. Today is not a normal day. Today, Jei broke an enemy soldier's mask and found his best friend inside. Tomorrow, that best friend will sell Jei out in the name of saving the universe. And the next day, Jei will disobey orders and break promises to take her down. .......................................................

How to start foraging without DYING - I asked Adam Haritan from @learnyourland! #heroskills It's a silly, "bait"-y title (scroll through for my silly thumbnails), but actually we dug into some truly beautiful truths about the connection YOU NEED to have with the land you live on. I beg you to watch this video, because what you put into your body, and what you take out of the world TO put into your body, have such an impact on your ability to help others. Adam gave a great resource list, too, so you can start foraging safely--that's all in the description at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPeuG03pXFw (youtube.com/c/becomingareallifesuperhero) I share #reallifesuperhero stories and skills weekly on that channel, and via email at becominghero.ninja! (Click on Become A Hero when you get there) I also write superhero fiction. In BECOMING HERO, SKYE is the storm-tossed comic character out for revenge on the author who murdered his family. JACE is the math-loving #blerd trying to escape his father’s deadly legacy. When their worlds collide, Jace must choose between the real world he’s always hated, and the comic book world he’s always loved–and Skye must decide if killing his author will save his world…or damn his soul.
