NOVEL NEXT 
Joseph had been given a pretty rough hand in life. Barely able to hold down a job, relationship history that he would rather not think about, and now his year-long vacation ended prematurely when his cruise across the stars was met with a bang.
Stranded on a planet of yellow flora and delicious rocks, he finds himself using the opportunity to make something that he has always wanted: Family.
Galactic Government conspiracies, abandoned soldiers, and mysterious insectoids all stand between Joseph and a peaceful realization of his efforts to make a home.
