(...a day late...) Yesterday the long-awaited CHICKS IN TANK TOPS was released into the wild and immediately shot up to #1 for Hot New Releases on Amazon. Which is awesome! Then to top it off, later on it went up to #379 overall across all of Barnes & Noble ebooks -- in spite of their … Continue reading Book Release Day!

Crazy Train to the South
What a crazy few weeks it has been! Packing up to move was an adventure, to say the least. It was one of those last-minute "Oh crap, we're leaving in 3 days and we're not finished packing!" sort of things. 1 star out of 5, do not recommend. But with the help of our friends … Continue reading Crazy Train to the South
Moving Day Is Close
Not that I'm counting or anything, but I'm eight days away from moving out of my house and to another state. I'm super excited about moving for my new job. However, there's a little sentimental attachment I have to this place. My current house goes up for sale in a few weeks, if not sooner … Continue reading Moving Day Is Close
Unshackled and Then It Got Weird
My coauthor and friend Jamie Ibson has had one busy 30 days. Today his latest project, written with the amazing Casey Moores, was released into the wild. "UNSHACKLED" continues the tale of Ruxandra Roxtador, the mostly-retired secret agent and ally of Hr'ent from "GUNBOAT DIPLOMACY" as she prepares to fight the oncoming storm of the … Continue reading Unshackled and Then It Got Weird
Helping Out Another
This week, I want to talk to you about a friend of mine I've known for **cough cough mumble** years now who only recently became an author. His name? Shane Gries. Shane writes what I like to call epic space opera. He's less about the "pew pew!" and more about the story and plot. Not … Continue reading Helping Out Another
Wyvacon Weekend
This weekend's Wyvacon schedule looks pretty exciting. I know I'm looking forward to a good time. Bonus -- Wyvacon has said that anyone under the age of 16 gets in for free with one adult paid admission. So if you pay for your ticket, your three kids get in for free. It's that family-friendly. It's … Continue reading Wyvacon Weekend
Release Day
Yeah, I don't normally see a book release on a Monday, but this is a special case. Today, the Salvage Universe anthology, IT TAKES ALL KINDS, was released into the wild. Created by Kevin Steverson, the first three books (SALVAGE TITLE, SALVAGE FLEET, and SALVAGE SYSTEM) have been optioned for a movie already and is … Continue reading Release Day

#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 #LionWatch Contest
5 (More) Authors You Should Be Reading
Yesterday's post was actually quite the hit, though you can imagine just how many people responded to me privately with "why wasn't so-and-so on the list?" Plus, nobody got mad at me about the clickbait headline. Go me! (editor's note: if you're going to steal this list, please acknowledge where it came from. I appreciate … Continue reading 5 (More) Authors You Should Be Reading
5 Authors You Should Be Reading Right Now
Ugh, that is such a clickbaity headline, I'm tempted to change it before I hit "publish". If it still says "5 Authors You Should Be Reading Right Now" then congratulations, you've seen that my trollishness outweighs my maturity level by a factor of ten. A few on this list are brand new. Others have been … Continue reading 5 Authors You Should Be Reading Right Now
Another Book Release Day
These things are coming at us almost every week now it seems. Best part? This isn't the last book release for me this month. But I'm not worried about what's coming out Jan 21, no. I'm celebrating the release of GUNBOAT DIPLOMACY, co-authored with the amazing Jamie Ibson. It's Book 2 of the Four Horsemen … Continue reading Another Book Release Day
Resist
Only two more days until the FREEHOLD: RESISTANCE anthology comes out. I'm super stoked about this one, since my story "The Prayer Wheel", is possibly one of my favorite short stories I've ever written. I also signed a contract to be in the next Freehold Universe anthology, tentatively titled FREEHOLD: DEFIANCE. I have one short … Continue reading Resist
