Sometimes the words flow and life is good. Other times, well, it's like a tooth extraction gone horribly wrong. This past week has been an interesting mesh of being both unable to write and yet still averaging almost 2,000 words per day. I've been focusing mostly on DAUGHTERS OF THE PRIDE, though I did work … Continue reading Maintain the Flow

Book Cover Reveal
I've been having a lot of these this year, courtesy of producing a LOT of written material. GUNBOAT DIPLOMACY will be out on Jan 3, 2020. Co-authored with the always entertaining Jamie Ibson, here is the cover as well as the entire cover art wrap (for the print editions). The pirate kitty skull in the … Continue reading Book Cover Reveal

That's right, Jamie and I have the first book coming out in 2020. We're extremely excited about the potential of GUNBOAT DIPLOMACY and what it means to the … Continue reading Release Date Confirmed
A Snippet from “Forged in Blood”
So I'm in another Baen Books anthology, this one titled Forged in Blood which is edited by Michael Z. Williamson and is based in his "Freehold" universe. Here is a quick description from the book: NEW STORIES OF A MYSTICAL KILLING SWORD SET IN MICHAEL Z. WILLIAMSON’S FREEHOLD SERIES WARRIORS AND SOLDIERS TIED TOGETHER THROUGHOUT TIME AND SPACE. From … Continue reading A Snippet from “Forged in Blood”
The Dragon Awards
The inaugural Dragon Awards (hosted by Dragoncon, the biggest party for nerds in the entire southeastern U.S.) went off smashingly. I can't wait for them to release the results numbers so we can see just how many people actually voted. I'm going to throw out a number and say... hmm... 10,000. While that may seem … Continue reading The Dragon Awards
Hugo Season
So apparently it's Hugo season again (didn't we just do this?), though this year I'm thinking "Yeah, I lost a lot of time and energy last year dealing with that public smear campaign. I'm not even going to pay attention this year." Seriously. In 2014 I managed to get a ton of writing done. 2015? … Continue reading Hugo Season
Just Your Average Everyday Friday
My post over at the Mad Genius Club is now live. I went to an interesting place during my thought process and delved into sociological change throughout history. I probably could have written about 4,000 more words on the topic but I have a book due. I finished Best Laid Plans last night and managed to get … Continue reading Just Your Average Everyday Friday
Cover Reveal!
Isn't it pretty? It's so pretty! For this cover I managed to land the freakishly talented J. F. Posthumus to do the cover of the upcoming historical zombie story, The Dead of Babylon. It will be released on December 18th, just in time to satisfy your holiday horrorific cravings (even though it's set about 3000 years ago … Continue reading Cover Reveal!
Please
My brain couldn't get into the mood for writing Kaiju Apocalypse III today, since this flu thingy has been kicking my butt this week. Instead of calling it a lost day, though, I decided to work on this fantasy idea my Muse has been beating me over the head with the past two weeks. I mean, I'd … Continue reading Please
Kaiju Day 3
I'll be out all day, but I woke up to something wonderful this morning. Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #7,009 Paid in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Paid in Kindle Store) #59 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Science Fiction > Military #73 in Books > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Science Fiction > Post-Apocalyptic #82 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Science Fiction & Fantasy > Science Fiction > Military Yeah, totally made my day/year.

It’s Here!
Big news today! Kaiju Apocalypse is out and available via ebook over on Amazon. Best part about this? Amazon Prime members get it for free! Yeah, thought that would get your attention. So go forth, buy it, pay for my kitties' kibble (and Sophie's treats). If you don't, you probably don't love kitties and puppies and, more … Continue reading It’s Here!
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
Reading Materialist
Wraithkin is with the agent now. I have two weeks to complete my Dark Corners anthology story (Collectibles). I should have written it months ago, but life kept getting in the way. Okay, life and other novels. And other short stories. Okay, okay, I just suck as a human being. I'll get it done before the deadline, even … Continue reading Reading Materialist
This Counts
Shhh... don't tell anyone right now, but I'm supposed to be writing. I was informed that updating the website doesn't constitute writing. I call bunk. The temperature's been dropping here the last few days, with last night actually freezing (I know it was, because I had to walk Sophie in it while she did her … Continue reading This Counts
The Accidental Lecture
I sent off Homeworld: Rockfall to my coauthor Eric Brown yesterday afternoon. The first draft is done (yeah, I was slacking) and though it "only" took about 5 weeks to write, that was a rough five weeks. While the book itself isn't the longest thing I've ever written (I'm looking at you, Corruptor) it is, by far, … Continue reading The Accidental Lecture
