Leeland Artra Author

Leeland Artra Author is the private imprint used by the bestselling fantasy and science fiction novelist Leeland Artra. All works printed under this branding are guaranteed to be "flinch free fiction", meaning safe reading material for anyone 13 years or older. All such marked works shall: 1. Be top quality (good editing, properly formatted, properly cited, etc.) 2. Be a thoughtfully unique story/book/article/review which may or may not be fully explored. 3. Not use language that would be considered above a PG-13 rating level. Based on the world, characters, and situation some cussing is not only appropriate but would be totally unbelievable without it. 4. Will NOT be written as a platform for teaching or preaching intolerance of views, beliefs, behavior, race or gender that differ from one’s own. 5. Have physics which follow usable rules (If there is super science or magic, it will not do something in one situation and then be unable to do the same thing later or vice versa. In other words, magic and super-science follow rules, and will not be just a plot device.) 6. Characters who develop, learn, and change with the plots. Some may be established persons but even old wolves can learn new tricks. 7. Sex scenes are kept to a minimum, and when present, because they make sense, they are mostly left to the imagination. Again conforming to the max PG-13 rating. 8. The stories do not glorify war, killing, kidnapping, torture, or abusive treatment of people. It is acknowledged that the fantasy/sci-fi genre based on sword, sorcery, and weapons. However, the primary characters in the works discussed and promoted by LAA will not be violent killers that revel in the gruesome acts. It is a fine line to walk, but every effort will be applied to remain on the PG-13 side.
