About

Dirty Sci-Fi Buddha is the website for me:  author Kent Wayne.  The site name comes from the subject material in my early pieces of writing.

Three works are featured.  The first one is a series called Echo, a science fiction dystopia where a disillusioned warrior pushes his craft to its bloody limits, then attempts to break through into a realm of world-bending mastery.  I’ve finished this four-volume series, and I’ve also posted some free sample chapters, click here to start reading.

To buy Echo Volume 1:  Approaching Shatter on Amazon click here:  Buy Echo

The second book is a high school adventure, full of profanity, psychedelics, and interdimensional shenanigans.  Here’s the link for the book on Amazon:  Kor’Thank:  Barbarian Valley Girl.   Sample chapters are available here:  Sample Chapters for Kor’Thank:  Barbarian Valley Girl

I’m working on a YA fantasy called the Unbound Realm, a three-volume series.  I’ve finished books one and two, and I’m working on the third.  Here’s a link to volume 1:  A Door into Evermoor  and here’s a link to volume 2:  Weapons of Old  Here are some sample chapters:  Sample Chapters for the Unbound Realm.

Thanks for your interest!  If you’re a writer, I wish you inspired drafting and insightful editing!  Best way to reach me is by DMing me on Facebook.  However, I have noticed some DMs getting filtered out by Facebook messenger, so if I don’t respond, just comment on my wall.  I’ll take it down, DM you, and address your concerns.  Sorry to all those who never got a response; I wasn’t trying to be rude!  🙂

  2. Thanks, Kent, for liking my post! Much appreciated, in this world of so many random electrons floating around that it’s hard to gain the attention of one. Your storyline is intriguing. I’m going to come back and check out the sample chapters this weekend. Right now, it’s writin’ time!

  3. The descriptions of the books…they’re amazing. But I think the Filthy 108 is something different and a must read…Hoping to find the book soon…And thanks, for liking my first post on WordPress…It helps amateur writers like me to write when we know that somebody out there is ready to read us!

    • Hey Ann I’m flattered, but due to my time commitments, I’ve stopped following protocol for these awards. If there’s anything specific you want to know about me, though, drop a comment and I’ll throw you an answer! 🙂

      • Yeah. I totally understand! It took me more than a day to answer the questions, post it and notify everyone, in addition to all the other daily commitments life brings 😖 Who knows, maybe one of my questions will inspire one of your musings 😜 Thanks for letting me know what’s up! Have a good one!

  5. Hey Kent! Do you have a contact email by any chance? Either that or I’m blind and I can’t find one lol. I wanted to ask some more questions for my ‘Ask The Blogger’ blog series and would love to feature you again! Thanks!! Milly

  8. Hello, Kent! Thank you for liking my very first post; it’s helpful for an emerging writer like me.
    I will have a read of your sample, as anything to do with philosophy gains my overwhelming interest!

  12. Thanks for liking my overly emotion, thrown together poem Here I Am lol. I didnt think it’d catch anyone’s attention. Ive been barely getting back to writing and just decided to post it on my rarely used blog.

    Echo seems intruging. I’m going to come back to read the sample chapters. And I do believe it is important to keep works we did a while ago, it shows us and our readers where we were at.

    Thanks again! 🙂

    • Thank you back, Miss Mommy! And no worries on the over-emotionization; last year I went back and revamped Echo 1 and 2 because I couldn’t get over my over-description. Couldn’t get it all out, but we evolve as writers, so I imagine if I kept trying to get it perfect, I’d drive myself crazy. 🙂

      • 🙂 Haha yes. I have a story I’ve been working on and off since I was 14 and last time I wrote on it I just revamped it and was driving myself a bit crazy trying too. The writer is usually their harshest critic.

  20. Thanks Kent, for liking my post! I am just starting out with my first book being published back in February and I find the writing way easier than getting noticed! HAHA. Its nice to be noticed by another writer. Your artwork above is awesome and grabbed my attention right away. Your plot sounds great and love the sense of humor! Have to admit I don’t read a lot of SciFi, however, I am intrigued by your outline and will grab a copy to read. Thank you!

    • Thank you back, J.A! Yeah, advertising and logistics, is, unfortunately, way harder than the actual writing part of indie authordom. As far as my stuff being sci fi, I try to make my see past the “cool” sci fi stuff and illustrate human nature as best as possible. Without a strong representation of human nature, I don’t think any genre really rings true. And with something far out like sci fi or fantasy, it’s even more important, because the setting is already stretching the bounds of believability. Thanks for the kind words, and the interest! 🙂

    • Awesome—I’m flattered!! I used to play AD&D 2nd edition when I was a kid. Can’t believe my parents let me spend that much money on handbooks and dice, LOL! Apologies for the noob mistakes in the earlier stages of my stuff; it gets better if you stick with it. 🙂

  32. Thank you for the likes. They mean a lot to me since I am real new to this blogging thing. Finding writing blogs which captivate me is not easy so I look up the blogs of people who liked my stuff. They must have good taste. Hah. Anyhow, your blog looks like one I need do delve into soon. Thanks again and have a nice day.

    • I can’t remember too well…I think I had to create a link in paypal, which gave me some html code I could plug into wordpress. Google “donate button wordpress” and I’m pretty sure you can find some walk-throughs.

  46. Howdy! Just stopping by to thank you for the “like” on my Ditch the Niche post. I will admit that I’m not typically a reader of sci-fi, but your titles have me absolutely intrigued! I’ll be checking out Echo Volume 1: Approaching Shatter. I mean, how did that come about? I need to know. (Also…you had me chuckling in appreciation a couple of times!)
