Happy New Year!
First off, thank you to each and every one of you who has supported me this year. Whether it be via Amazon, Kindle Unlimited, Audible, Patreon, or hanging out in the Secret Society, I honestly wouldn’t be able to have this amazing career without you all.
I’m happy to say that 2021 is behind us. It had its moments, some good and some bad, but overall, it ended on a positive note. After having another surgery in February, I only managed to write 2 books this year, but I wrapped up Pangea Online and put out the 4th installment of Sentenced to Troll, along with 3 audiobooks. I ordered amazing new covers and finally have hardcover versions of my books that rival anything you might find at your local bookstore.
I aim to be much more productive in 2022, and I’ve set things in place to make that happen. Really, it’s all about keeping my butt in the chair and getting the words out. Distraction is my biggest hindrance, but I’m ready to take my career to a new level and the only way to do that is to put in the work. After Sentenced to Troll 5, I’m going to try my hand at a couple of new series that have been sitting in the back of my mind. But I am committing to at least one Troll book per year, more if they really take off. It really comes down if I’m able to continue funneling new readers into the series. So every time you share my works with your friends or post in a group, it goes a long way in making that happen. There’s no better promotion than word of mouth.
I’m super excited about these new books, and I can’t wait to start sharing them as well. It’ll be fun to jump into some new worlds again.
Thanks for being awesome!

20Books Vegas Convention
Earlier this month, I went to the 20books Vegas publishing convention. I went to learn more about the business side of writing, as well as to meet some amazing authors and talk about craft. It was a great experience. Exhausting, but great. On the last day, some authors set up shop, so I took the opportunity to add to my signed book collection. In order of appearance, here are the books I picked up:
Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman
Shadowcroft and Rogue Dungeon by James Hunter
Black Dawn by Nathan Ameye
A Thousand Li by Tao Wong
Lotus Lake by Jay Boyce
Dungeon World by Jonathan Brooks
Overall, it was a great experience and I can’t wait to go back next year.

Pick it up for only 1 credit.
