Flight of the Krilo cover reveal
So, every now and again I like to stir things up. After finishing the trilogy with Dimwater, I started working on a new project. It's still set in the world of Terramyr, but will be introducing all new characters. (And a fun new race of people!)
So... without further ado, here is the cover reveal for Flight of the Krilo.

My first illustrated Children's book: The Moon Dragon!
I am so happy to announce that the electronic version of The Moon Dragon is available now on Amazon. This tale has waited a long time to find just the right art work, and I think Joshua Allen did an excellent job with this story.
Like the other books I write, this tale takes place on Terramyr, which is kind of fun for me. However, I actually wrote this story for my son, and it holds a special place in my heart. Aiden has always had a great imagination, but when he was about two years old, we tried to tell him about the "man" in the moon. It was a great, clear night with a bright full moon, the kind that seems to loom larger in the night than it should, and we thought he would laugh at the idea.
Well, Aiden wasn't convinced. He kept saying, no, there is no man. That's a dragon! Then he would make roaring sounds. This went on for quite some time until finally he had us convinced that he was right. Thus, the Moon Dragon was born.
I hope you enjoy reading this story, and sharing it with other kids.

The Dwarves of Roegudok Hall Comic Book is Here!
I am so excited about this! The Dwarves of Roegudok Hall is a fantastically illustrated story about the founding of the Dwarven Kingdom found in the Dragon's Champion series. It delves deeper into the myth and lore of the dwarves and dragons in the Middle Kingdom and promises page-turning action and fun.
This project has been in the works for several months, and I think it turned out very well. It is available both in physical format, and also on kindle.
Enjoy!

Who said writers only sit behind desks?
Over this last weekend I had a ton of fun. I have been training for the last nine months in my gym at home, and I suited up for the USPA Rocky Mountain Regional Championship this last Saturday, Sept. 10th.
I took first in the 275lb Classic Raw Category (which means no special bench shirts or squat or deadlift suits- but you can use knee wraps on the squats) and it was a blast. Here are just a couple videos and a photo for fun.
It wasn't my all time personal best lifts- but still respectable for a first time I think. Got 496 on the squat and 518 on the deadlift.
No video for the bench :( Although I only did 341 anyway, so that wouldn't be so impressive.
