No longer in exile, the rebel mage Matthias can finally return to his home enclave and settle into a new life with his beloved Solomon. As he struggles with his role leading the new town of Sanctuary, upheld by the people who once rejected him, Matthias knows all too well that the relative peace he’s found is temporary. The forces that razed Haven are still out there, still looking for him, still seeking to destroy everything he now protects. While there are alliances t...

Release Week, Day 2 — The Secret to Writing Success.
Release Week (to the tune of Maria, from West Side Story)
Tomorrow, my new book releases tomorrow…
And.. that’s about as far as I got on that one. Luckily, I write novels better than I write song parodies!
Today on the blog tour, I give up the secret to writing success, something I learned while at RWA Nationals this past July. Want to know the secret? Go look!

Thunderclap for Where Home Lies!
Wait, I hear you cry. What’s a Thunderclap?
It’s a way to help a creator promote something — you agree to allow a one time message to be sent through your social media. In this case, you’ll send out one message on your Facebook/Twitter/Tumblr on September 4th, telling the whole world, or all your followers, that Where Home Lies comes out on the 5th.
That’s it. That’s all.

And the Prism goes to….
Someone else. Harper Jameson won with her very first book The Spirit. Congrats to her!!!
Heart’s Master tied for second. I’m still very pleased!
Cover reveal!
I have to admit, I squeed a little when I saw the cover for Where Home Lies. It’s a very undignified noise, but I don’t care, because TAM!!!
I have to admit, I never intended for Tam to become a major character in the series. If I remember my original outline correctly, he never made it to Haven. Stubborn cuss that he is, he refused to die. And decided for me that he was going to become an important character. So I’m fond of him.
So, without further ado, here’s the cover. Where Home Lies will...

More Cover Art
I don’t have a release date for these, but I do have some really nifty cover art for the reissue of the first two Tales from the Arena books.

And just to let you know, there will be a third Tales book. Tales from the Arena: Dead Man’s Hand will be around at some point (yes, that’s vague. All I know about it is the title!)

I have cover art for Where Home Lies (the final Rebel Mage book). You just can’t see it… yet.
I also have a date. The projected publication date for Where Home Lies is September 5th. The date is currently written in warm jello, but it’s solidifying rapidly.
I can’t wait to show the cover art to you all — but you have to wait until July 28th, which is the date of the official unveiling. I will (I hope) have the artwork up that night. I have to see if I can do delayed posts on this thing. It...

An Embarrassment of Riches
Yesterday, I posted about selling my novella Sapphires and Gold.
Today, there were two more contracts in my email. Sold, to Forbidden Fiction, Hidden Things (book one of The Swords of Charlemagne), and the reprint rights to From Dusk ’til Dawn.
