Line 16:
* [[Into the Looking Glass]]: [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]] story tending more towards the "hard" side of [[Mohs Scale of Science Fiction Hardness]] (It softens somewhat as the series continues), building off of currently known particle physics. An accident at a Florida university where investigations into high-energy particle physics was taking place results in multiple gates opening to another part of the galaxy, through which organic-based baddies launch an attack on Earth.
* [[Special Circumstances]]: Urban fantasy focusing on a Christian housewife and mother forced into dealing with supernatural villains.
* And the newest,{{when}} ''[[Troy Rising]]'', the first installment named ''Live Free Or Die''. [[Next Sunday A.D.]], [[We Come in Peace, Shoot to Kill|nice aliens]] extend their [[Portal Network]] into Sol System. Two years later, [[NASA]] [[I Want My Jetpack|has yet to get off its fat, subsidized ass and build an actual spaceship]]. A year after ''that'', while [[Strawman Political|stupid officials]] are still arguing over the portal's importance, bad aliens stroll in nonchalantly and [[Vichy Earth|conquer Earth]] in [[Curb Stomp Battle|a single afternoon]]. But the bad guys never counted on "Tyler Vernon"... A ''literal'' [[Spiritual Licensee]]; Ringo was chatting with [[Schlock Mercenary|Howard Tayler]] about the [[First Contact]] days of Schlock Mercenary, and Howard said that John was more than welcome to write that story<ref>though the official ''Schlock Mercenary'' wiki says that the two aren't connected, as the two writers haven't really conversed for several years now</ref>.
Mr. Ringo's website can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20140313123215/http://www.johnringo.net/ here], for more details than in this (currently sketchy) article. It's mostly empty, being a work-in-progress replacing a defunct site.
