One of the really cool things about being a reader as well as a writer is to go back and read those who inspired you when you were younger. To be whisked away to faraway and magical lands of adventure. Of dragons and knights, of the entire escapism which, to me, is what epic fantasy... Continue Reading →
The Unlucky Few
I've been backing away from social media this past week in order to focus on the Epic Fantasy novel and I actually became far more productive. Weird, that. It's almost as if social media is nothing but a time sink. Weird, right? I hit the usual halfway point in regards to word count but I... Continue Reading →
Second Chance Angel Release
My quasi-adoptive (she sort of adopted me, and I didn't say no) sister, Kacey Ezell, had a book come out yesterday with her coauthor Griffin Barber. It's a space opera noir thriller that I can't wait to get into, and is titled SECOND CHANCE ANGEL. It's available at Barnes & Noble, Target, and other booksellers.... Continue Reading →
It Can’t Happen To Us
We forget we're mere mortals more often than not. We think "it can't happen to us" while watching people around us get old, sick, and eventually die. But it can happen to us. It does happen. Men are taught from an early age by society that once you're no longer a young boy, you just... Continue Reading →
Plan On Sticking To The Plan
It's amazing the amount of crap that can happen over the course of two weeks, am I right? First off, the kinda bad news -- CKP has declined to pick up the fifth book in the Kin Wars Saga, WINTERBORN. This isn't entirely unexpected as sales in the series have flagged since the first two.... Continue Reading →
Missed Deadlines
Yeah, I did it again. WINTERBORN hit a bump in the road right near the end and I'm now struggling to wrap up the last little bit of the book. Since I'd given myself a due date of July 31 on this one, it is now 10 days overdue. However, since I'd given myself an... Continue Reading →
Audiophiles Rejoice!
DEATHLORDS is now available on audible! Narrated by Rob Saladino once again (WRAITHKIN, DARKLING), listen to ten hours of pulse-pounding, high-intensity military science fiction with just a splash of espionage tossed in, then topped with the fight to save a family's honor and integrity in the midst of a brewing civil war. DEATHLORDS is available... Continue Reading →
Still #1
Thanks to everyone for helping make DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE the #1 bestselling book in action and adventure on Amazon! Not only did it reach #1 within hours of being released, it has held down the #1 spot (minus a few hours when my friend Tim C. Taylor's book took it over) since. That is... Continue Reading →
RELEASE DAY — DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE
Finally, today is the day! I love Release Day because it means I can finally talk about events in the book. You have no idea how hard it is for someone like me to shut up about a project. Especially once which I put so much into, like I did with DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE.... Continue Reading →
The Quiet Month
"Jason's being quiet... he must be writing." You would assume correctly. I'm on course to complete WINTERBORN before the end of the month. It'll go to the Mega Awesome Beta Force group to be torn apart and put back together to make sure continuity is solid still. I lose track of things. Everybody does. But... Continue Reading →
Deifying the Flawed Man
Cancel culture is rampant throughout the world right now as we know it. If a person isn't 100% in line with the "flavor of the week" cause they are ruthlessly culled from the ranks of the "good" and instantly cast as wicked, evil, and on the "wrong side of history". That last phrase is one... Continue Reading →
#LionWatch Contest
Coming July 10, 2020 from Seventh Seal Press I meant to post this a few days ago but I decided to hold off until today because we're just over 30 days away from the release of "DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE" (July 10), the followup novel to the 2019 Dragon Award Finalist "SONS OF THE LION".... Continue Reading →
The Main Idea
I've been officially in wrtier's mode the past few months. I can tell because I looked back over what I've turned in recent weeks. First there was DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE, sequel to SONS OF THE LION. Set in the expansive Four Horsemen Universe, I was happy to be able to continue Sunshine's story and... Continue Reading →
Cover Reveal Part Deux
The other day I showed off the cover for the upcoming Four Horsemen Universe novel, DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE. Today I'm showing off the cover for the next anthology I'm in, titled WE DARE -- SEMPER PARATUS. Yes, this is a themed anthology. The last one, WE DARE, focused on augmented humanity and lifeforms. I... Continue Reading →
Cover Reveal
Other than "Release Day", cover reveal days are some of my favorites days. "Release Day" for my upcoming Four Horsemen Universe novel (and sequel to SONS OF THE LION), DAUGHTER OF THE PRIDE, is slated for July 10, 2020. I'm super stoked because not only is the cover art gorgeous, it carries on the story... Continue Reading →
