Following Saturday’s pre-order announcement, I am even happier to note that SGTM volume 3, Target of the Orders is now available for full download (and in print, of course). The series appears to be on schedule. Yes, I do so love it when a plan comes together! As always, your support is greatly appreciated. On […]

Two notes to you
Time flies, man. Time flies. I can’t believe we’re in the middle of December. In celebration, here’s a picture of Lisa and my favorite ornaments hanging on our tree. We took to them the moment we received them (as a gift, naturally). They’ve since grown to represent not only Christmas, but a vision of how […]
Read More ...Changing gears
Everything is very strange, now. Yesterday I finally finished ALL of the bulk of the work of producing all eight volumes of Saga of the God-Touched Mage. Really. Completely. Well, except that there’s a little work left to do to insert covers as they are completed, but the rest is done and the inclusion of […]
Read More ...That kind of support behind you
“Then she said, ‘You should quit your job.’” Those words came out of my mouth a few hours ago as I was sitting as a table in Viewpoint Books, signing some of my work, and talking with David Bosley and Janice Benham, two other local writers who were also signing their work. Janice had asked […]
Read More ...Gathering of the God-Touched Cover Reveal!
Yes, my good friends, it’s that time again. Volume two of the Saga of the God-Touched Mage is fully launched, and Volume 3 is on pre-order.

Read More ...You must have really thick skin
“You must have really thick skin.” That was a comment from a friend of mine recently. He was talking about one review in particular that has been posted against Glamour of the God-Touched. Before I go too far here, let me state a thing or two. First, I’m quite pleased with the response to this […]

The time, you know, it flies. I’m happy to announce that Trail of the Torean, volume 2 of my fantasy series, is now available for full download. The reaction to the first volume was really quite brilliant, and I’m excited to see where Trail might take us. Thank you so much for all your support. […]
Read More ...Entering the Home Stretch
This morning I proofed the first half of Lord of the Freeborn, which is the seventh book of the series that I might have mentioned around here a time or two. Hopefully, I’ll finish that today. Then tomorrow will be spent proofing Lords of Existence, which is the eighth and final book in the series […]
Read More ...Cover Reveal #3!
You may have heard rumors that I’m in the middle of publishing a fantasy serial in eight parts. [grin] This is turning out to be quite a fun experience–and one of the most fun parts is working with Rachel Carpenter, who is doing all the covers. She’s created really fantastic work for both Glamour of […]
Read More ...Hard Work & Opportunity
As with most everything I have to say about art and writing, this is a long and meandering piece. I think it means something though. I think it gets somewhere. We shall see. I am going to use pretentious words like “art” and “artist” and other such muck-a-muck. If you are one of those TLDR […]
