Good and Bad News

2/18/19

Good news first:

I have an official release date for The Sentinel’s Prophesy: April 3, 2019.  You can also preorder it at LT3 right now: https://lessthanthreepress.com/books… All that’s left before Prophesy is ready to go is the copy edit and the galley proof, neither of which should take too long, and the cover.  I haven’t seen the cover yet, but I’m sure it’s going to be as amazing as the rest of the series, so I’m definitely excited for it....

New Story Blurbs

2/8/19

I have two new blurbs (or summaries) to share for two of my books!  First, I have the official summary for The Sentinel’s Prophesy, which is a big first step in getting it ready to go up on LT3’s site for pre-order.  It’s not too different to the temporary one I came up with while I was writing, but I think it flows a bit better.  What do you think?

   In ancient times, five dragons fought against an immense and powerful evil. Unable to defeat it, they imprisoned it in...

All the edits for Butterfly and The Sentinel’s Prophesy are back with LT3.  That means Butterfly...

New Dates and More Edits

1/20/19

I have new release dates for both of my postponed stories!

If A Butterfly Don’t Fly: March 13, 2019The Coup and the Prince: May 22, 2019

I expect Butterfly will be back up on LT3’s site for pre-order very soon.  When LT3 lists their May books, Coup will go back up too.

Even better news is I already know I won’t miss Butterfly’s new release date.  I received the copy edits last weekend.  My plan was to simply look through them to see what I was in for, but as I w...

2019 Is Starting Off Right

1/5/19

I hope everyone had a happy holiday season and a good new year.  So far, my new year is starting off well.  I have lots of news to share, but first I want to tell you my new years resolution for writing: Get all my edits done on time!  Conversely, if I’m struggling with the edits, contact LT3 well ahead of the deadline so we can work something out before it gets away from us both.  I’m not going through that again this year, and it’s not right that I put LT3 on the spo...

Good News!

12/16/18

Today only, Magnified is .99 cents at LT3.  If you haven’t read it yet, this is a great chance to get a copy: https://lessthanthreepress.com/books… Magnified is a vampire story and is probably the closest I’ll ever come to writing horror, and is one of my favorite stories that I’ve written.  I think you’ll like it too.  

Ground of Resurrection was accepted for publishing by LT3!  I’m really excited and I honestly hope this is a sign that I will be a...

Vote for Ground of Insurrection!

12/11/18

Ground of Insurrection has been nominated in the Best Fantasy of 2018 category in the M/M Romance Awards!  It’s an honor just to be nominated, but now comes the real test: winning.  Voting is open right now and all you have to do is click a link on their Goodreads page to participate.  There’s stiff competition from other authors I really respect, but I think Insurrection has a chance to beat them all!  I just need your help to get there.

Please, if you have a minute, go c...

Getting Better

12/2/18

I don’t know what sort of crud I’ve got, but it’s been a slow recovery.  The fever finally broke, but I’ve still got a bit of a cough.  The problem is, I’m still finding it hard to concentrate. My body just wants to curl up and sleep it off, while I wanted to spend this weekend writing instead.  That’s just not going to happen.  I need this crud to go away so I can get back to a regular routine that includes getting some writing done.

I was able to g...
