Change of Release Date!
So something really cool happened yesterday and I completely forgot to tell you.
SONS OF THE LION has had its release date bumped up from June 7 to May 24. That’s right, now you can get the book two whole weeks sooner! That means there will definitely be copies for sale at Libertycon for those attending, and since I’ll be in attendance, I can sign all of the books!
Also, watch this page, since the rules for the upcoming #LionWatch contest to help promote the book’s release will be posted soon...

The Agent Myth
I had an amusing thought tonight while I was rereading HOMEGUARD (because I’d forgotten a few details between writing SONS OF THE LION and some short stories). Memories, really, of when I was first breaking into the writing scene.
I’ve never been a huge fan of literary agents. As technology brings publishers and authors closer together, I feel that the literary agent is a thing that is slowly being pushed aside. Granted, there are different scenarios where an agent can be handy (if your name...

Book Cover and Update
It’s amazing what you can get done in two weeks.
I turned in THE SONS OF THE LION last Sunday (eight days ago) and then watched as the release for the Cannon Publishing Spring Anthology rocket upwards. I then got to see the new cover for SotL (and I’ll show it to you below). All in all, exciting times.
I went ahead and retitled book 5 of the Kin Wars Saga, primarily for two reasons. The first is that the more I said WARBORN out loud, the less I liked it. Secondly, the title WINTERBORN holds m...

End of March
I didn’t want to post this tomorrow because half the people would be thinking it was some sort of April Fool’s Day joke. I, for one, plan on not being online tomorrow, because the amount of photoshopped images of Fox bringing Firefly back will be more than I can handle.
You guys are awesome. Have I said that lately? During the release of HOMEGUARD, we got it up to #2 in Hot New Releases on Amazon for a few hours. It has been hovering around the Top 10, even after two weeks, which is pretty d...

FantaSci 2019 AAR – Gold Edition
First off, let me just say that FantaSci was an amazing first year con. Hat’s off to Joel and his wonderful staff for putting on one hell of a convention. There have been very few conventions I’ve been to where I felt like I had come home. This is one of… two, total, with Libertycon being the other. For those of you who can’t get in under the cap for Libertycon, consider FantaSci next year. GREAT PEOPLE.

Leprechauns And Reviews
Not sure if you heard or not, but Homeguard is out and currently kicking butt. We’ve already got 25 reviews, which means it is time for the Sacred Order of Barbecued Unicorns to unite (there’s a long story about that somewhere on this website, I’ll have to find it eventually) and grill up that tasty, tasty unicorn meat.
50 reviews, don’t forget, is when we get the second-to-last piece of the pirate treasure. Not sure what happens when we get 100 reviews, though I heard rumor about borrowing A...

Book Release Day
Today marks the release of the next book in the Kin Wars Saga. I’m very proud of how well HOMEGUARD came out and I’m really looking forward to hearing what you think about it.
Don’t forget to leave a review after you pick up your copy. Amazon has avowed(1) that they would give golden unicorns to people who get over 50 reviews.
Here’s a copy of the link. Share it far and wide. Help this book get some love.
(1) Amazon has made no such promise. Artistic license was u...

And Yet Another Cover Reveal
2019 is turning into the Year of the Cover Reveal, evidentially.
Not only is HOMEGUARD (Kin Wars Saga #4) coming out tomorrow, but today I get to reveal the cover of the next FREEHOLD anthology I’m in. Edited by Michael Z. Williamson once more, it’s due out December 3, 2019. Here she is:
[image error]$16.00 on AmazonWhat a beaut, as Steve Irwin would have said. The names on that cover alone should guarantee that it sells well. It’s already up for pre-order on Amazon, so there’s no delay.

Two Days Left
That’s right, only two days left until the release of the 4th book in the Kin Wars Saga. I’ve been waiting for HOMEGUARD for a long time, since I first started writing the series actually, because quite a bit of what has been going on so far finally comes to fruition. It’s one thing to plant a seed in a book and see it germinate into a fully fledged story idea at the end of the novel. It’s another thing entirely to see the seeds you planted three books ago finally bloom.
I...
