No, not for me, actually. Kaiju Apocalypse will be coming out soon, I promise. My friend (and regular commentator here, as well as reviewer over at Shiny Book Review) Barb Caffrey's debut novel, An Elfy on the Loose, came out the other day and... I completely forgot to mention it. I'm horrible. Basically, this is a quirky little … Continue reading Book Release!

Quick Breath
Working on Murder World today. I think Eric and I have had a breakthrough with this novel. Hopefully it'll be done by June. It's about 1/4 to 1/3 done at the moment. Just coming up for air. I'll have a new review coming up on SBR tonight as well. I'm not sure what book, mind you. But it'll be … Continue reading Quick Breath
The Collaborator
Just a few thoughts on collaboration and how to find "The One". Ack. Really Jason? Reeeeeeally?
Another Cover Reveal
By far a favorite cover of mine. Kaiju Apocalypse, coauthored with the amazing Eric S. Brown. Coming soon from Severed Press.
Brief Update
Put a new review up over at SBR tonight. It's the debut novel of Tiger Gray, called No Deadly Thing. I think the title was a bit misleading, since there were many deadly things about. It was passable, though I think that I was expecting much more. I'm growing more particular in the quality of novels … Continue reading Brief Update
March Madness Obligatory Update
My obligatory March Madness post... I actually started off pretty good, and am still in good form thanks to some timely upsets I predicted. I'm in the top 50 in my group (out of 8,000?) so go me. Best thing going: all four of my Final Four selections are alive and well. Bad Thing That … Continue reading March Madness Obligatory Update
Novella Sold
Kaiju Apocalypse, a novella I wrote with Eric S. Brown, was sold this morning to Severed Press. I'm very happy at this, since it's been about a month since I sold anything and I was beginning to get antsy once more. Now I'm working on two things -- Prince of the Rotted, my Babylonian zombie story, and Murder … Continue reading Novella Sold
Brief Random Update
Random late night update! Brad Torgersen (really nice guy and author) recently talked about his decision to publish with Baen Books (one of my favorite publishers). Interesting read from both a professional point and a personal one. I'd recommend that you check it out, and wish Brad all the best with his future endeavors (why? … Continue reading Brief Random Update
Freehold Available
Three and a half years ago, I listed Michael Z. Williamson's Freehold as one of the most influential books I've ever read. That still remains true to this day. Today Freehold is available for free on Kindle over at Amazon. "Yeah, cool, so?" you might say. Well, there's another reason I'm posting this as well. A limited edition hardcover … Continue reading Freehold Available
Stupid Busy
I've been stupidly busy the past few weeks (to steal a line from my friend Gerry). This is going to be a long update, so you may want to grab something to drink, or let the dog out. First off, let me say that Mysticon 2014 was an absolute blast. It went off without a … Continue reading Stupid Busy
Branding Iron
So two days ago it became official: I had to drop a convention. I hate doing that, though I had a sneaky suspicion that it might happen this year, since I had booked more cons than normal. Unfortunately, it was Ravencon which was thrown under the bus this year, and while I've attended Ravencon in … Continue reading Branding Iron
Sweet
So it's award season, which means I typically ignore them, since I never get nominated for anything. Never say never, apparently. My short story, The Finder's Keeper, is up for Best MidSouth SF/F Short Story at the Darrell Awards. That was quite a surprise, and very, very cool (I like the Darrell Awards.... not as snooty … Continue reading Sweet
Book Release v2.1
Sha'Daa: Tales of the Apocalypse was re-released this weekend. My short story, Crouching Seal, Sleeping Dragon, is in this one now (it started off in Sha'Daa: Pawns, remember? Paragon Idol, another short story I wrote in that universe, is replacing it). Cool cover. You might like it. I did. It's been a busy week or so. Con this coming weekend. … Continue reading Book Release v2.1
Mysticon Schedule
I'm going to be a little busy at Mysticon next weekend, but fear not! I'll be manning the fan table for the Official Honor Harrington Fan Association: The Royal Manticoran Navy quite a bit, so I'll be very easy to find. 5:00PM Friday -- Cats On A Keyboard: Basically we'll be talking about our pets and how … Continue reading Mysticon Schedule
Short Update
It's expected to be about 10-14" of snow here, so I'm all prepped to be snowed in for a few days. I should get that short story I owe done and out of the way with (sorry!!!). Short update. May have more interesting things tomorrow.
