Series Description:
Golden Terrace Colony Tales are stories (mostly long form serials) from the world of my Golden Terrace Colony YA science fiction series.
Hope Gardens shows how Sam Greeley, the class nerd, shifts into a completely new life plan after getting involved with Eleanor Mackey, the captain's daughter. Through Eleanor, Sam embarks on new relationships and tries new things, discovering a love of the greenhouses (a dead-end work detail if anybody ever saw one). He also gets pulled much farther into politics and civic action than he ever wanted to be.
In Light Catchers, four teens (Tori, Gabe, Lu & Brian) get jettisoned into space in a broken-down light catcher shuttle when their home ship experiences an extreme power failure. They must learn to depend on each other, despite their differences to salvage their craft and find enough energy to return home.
In Unfrozen, Lisa Lancet awakens after two-hundred years of cryogenic sleep to find that her ship, Hope, has become a strange world with plans for her that she never consented to...
Category/Genre(s): Young Adult, Science FictionAuthor Bio For R. L. S. Hoff:
R. L. S. Hoff writes young adult fantasy and science fiction with strange worlds, stranger creatures, bits of romance…and princesses, of course.
She lives with her husband and one of her adult kids, in a house full of ingenuity, love, and noise.
When she's not writing, parenting, or working at (so far) more profitable gigs, she reads, gardens, bakes, plays around with canva and origami, and occasionally makes dolls.

Thank you to Craig, Junyong, Benjamin & Kaitlyn for being my family even when I'm reading and writing more than is reasonable.
And thanks to my readers, for taking this journey with me.
