About the Conover SagaWhen Denise first began writing UFO stories, they seemed to parallel her favorite classic movies in odd little ways. Since UFO takes place at a film studio, she let her imagination play with the idea. Each of the Conover Saga stories has correlations to a classic movie, usually black and white, although in two cases, the movie is in color. Not every story mentions the movie it’s playing with, but every story has at least one clue, either in a well-known line or a character’s name. If you’re a classic movie buff like Denise, you may want to save looking at the list below until you’ve read through the stories yourself to see how many you can guess on your own. Either way, the list is here to help you understand the way her mind was working when she wrote. Her hope is that you’ll enjoy reading the Conover Saga as much as she enjoyed writing it.

But it wanted to be written. So here it is. Reevaluation (A Conover Saga Revisited Story) |
