This is would be the perfect time to get the first book in the series and try it out and see if it's up your alley. Also on sale is Murder World: Kaiju Dawn for only $0.99 as well. … Continue reading On Sale Now

Nope
Taking a short break from writing Murder World: Kaiju Dusk and seeing what is going on with the rest of the world... ...nope. Screw you, world. I'm not coming back out until you calm the f*** down.
Hugo 2014
2014 Hugos -- Congrats towards the winners! No, I'm not bitter that none of my nominees won. I think some of the anti-"OMG the Wheel of Time is a single entry WTFBBQ!!11!!" and the anti-VoxDay backlash hurt the voting for quite a few deserving entrants but again, since this was the most voted-on Hugo in … Continue reading Hugo 2014
Influences
I was looking over my map of Weslande (my fantasy world I'm building around the story of I, Godslayer) and I saw that I had made a massive cathedral made of crystal in the middle of a vast desert. I was sort of surprised (I don't remember doing it, but I make so many maps I … Continue reading Influences
Your Weekend Update, Hosted by Dr. Pepper, M.D.
For the record, I didn't enter the Baen Fantasy writing contest (congratulations to the winner and everyone else who participated, by the way) because my "fantasy short story" turned into a six book epic adventure fantasy series. While it would have been cool to enter and see how well I could have done, I'm fairly … Continue reading Your Weekend Update, Hosted by Dr. Pepper, M.D.
Today in History
It's odd, but there seems to be little coverage of the fact that today is the anniversary of the start of World War 1. Just something about the way Euros think, perhaps? I mean, BBC doesn't even mention it on their website. You would think that a war which was so terrible that it wiped … Continue reading Today in History
Positive Reviews…
...for Murder World: Kaiju Dawn keep pouring in. I would happily recommend Murder World to anyone looking for a quick, pulpy read that is both action-packed and witty. I certainly had a lot of fun with it! Yeah, good reviews. Let them spring forth!
The Correct Words
Today is lesson day, and since everyone's use of vocabulary seems to be screwed up, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that people throw out words without actually knowing what they mean. And since I've been lumped in with those "fascist Mad Genius people" over at the Mad Genius Club, I … Continue reading The Correct Words
You Gotta Keep ’em Separated
Rant ahead, as well as foul language. Be warned, ye who enter here. For some reason, fandom is going through some interesting "growth" right now. As I've talked about in recent weeks over at Mad Genius Club (and others have voiced their own opinions elsewhere), certain elements of fandom have taken over and are trying … Continue reading You Gotta Keep ’em Separated
The Weird American
I think I should have said that Eric and I will finish Murder World: Kaiju Dawn in August. For some reason, I keep thinking it's May and I haven't had my birthday yet. But never fear, for it's being worked on at the moment. Well, not this moment, but as soon as I'm done working on this blog entry, … Continue reading The Weird American
Good Enough
Before you freak out and grab your pitchforks, I'm hard at work on Murder World: Kaiju Dusk. Really, I am. It's coming along nicely, and I think everyone will be pleased to know that Captain Vincente and his crew is back for a second round. Eric and I should have this novel done by the end of … Continue reading Good Enough
Murder World: Kaiju Dawn Deal
Murder World: Kaiju Dawn is currently on sale for a mere $0.99 right now on Amazon Kindle (Prime members get it for free, as always). You really, really should buy it. Then review it. Then tell all your friends about how you'd sell your second born for the sequel (first born is a bit steep).
Happy Birthday America!
I should have taken the time to write up something about how great our country is despite all our differences with one another but... eh. On the plus side, I got to use the title "Quit Dicking Around" over at the Mad Genius Club today, so that was cool. Great news for all you procrastinators -- Murder World: … Continue reading Happy Birthday America!
Libertycon 27 AAR
So Libertycon 27 came to a close and all in all, it went tremendously well. I met new people, made new friends, ran into old friends, made a fool of myself (this is typical) and am now dealing with a very screwed up sleep schedule. So I rolled into Libertycon about three in the afternoon … Continue reading Libertycon 27 AAR
Guest Blogging Elsewhere and Libertycon Schedule
I guest blogged over at Sarah Hoyt's site today. More on the Marion Zimmer Bradley issue, how it relates, and me asking why the SFWA hasn't kicked out their 2013 Grand Master and open pederast Samuel Delaney. I, uh, kinda lost my cool a bit. I'm going radio silent for the weekend. I won't be … Continue reading Guest Blogging Elsewhere and Libertycon Schedule
