Spots of sunlight danced between the trees as Alia and Alfons made their way through the thick undergrowth of the Deep. A cinnamon-colored rat scurried along the bramble, unhindered and well-ahead of the two humans.
“Let me get this straight,” Alfons said, ducking a thorny vine above his head. “You saw Alia walk int...

Buford examined the black glass dragon tears sitting on the etched, wooden playing table before him. On either side of the table were two diamond-shaped slots, each covered by a silver coin. The diamond closest to him was his city-state. The coin was to buy the lady across from him a drink, while the...

Thoughts on Publishing – Infinitas Publishing Status Report
Wow, hard to believe it’s time for another status report. Time sure does fly. Anyway, here’s whatwe’re up towith Infinitas Publishing.[image error]
The Shadow War:So… I’ve got a lot of plotting done for this (actually, I’m more-or-less working on the first set of edits), and a lot of plotting for the next two novellas after this (including a character that I am really looking forward to introducing), but not a lot of editing or writing.

Behind the Scenes – On A Midnight Clear
This is a cover for Melange Books. For this cover, the author wanted something that showed a cabin in a snowy region and kept with the dark mood of the story. They had already found an image that they felt worked well, so I was able to find a similar one from the stock site we normally use in order to create the cover.
My first attempt at a proof for this cover included silhouettes of the characters, but it didn’tconvey the right mood. So I went a more simple route, using the mysterious, dark...

A horse-drawn cart—loaded down with supplies and a sleeping pterosaur—ambled over a series of potholes in a well-worn road. A warm breeze ruffled the fields of barley on either side, the lazy sun painting the land vivid gold. The cart bumbled along, its two sorrel mares uninterested in the stiffness of their cart’...
