OK, they're not all for fiction writers, but these 100 Free and Useful Web Apps for Writers should have something you'll find useful.
Some of My Books
The Fall of the Republic
In a parallel timeline, 1990s America discovers the chronoplanes: parallel worlds at different points in history.Rogue Emperor
The hijacking of the Roman Empire, 100 AD, by 21st-century Christian fundamentalists, in the second of the Chronoplane Wars novels.The Empire of Time
My first novel, published in 1978, but the last in the Chronoplane Wars trilogy.Gryphon
"Write a space opera," my editor said. So I did, with some nanotech thrown in.Tsunami
A companion novel to Icequake, set mostly in California.Icequake
A disaster thriller (Antarctic ice sheet surges into ocean), dated but still fun.Eyas
