Read an excerpt from “The Stars Were Right!”

The Stars Were Right


Some big news today! In advance of my book release I have relaunched my site, and along side that I also launched a new subdomain for The Stars Were Right. Included with that launch I have also released the prologue as an excerpt for you to check out! Mobile versions will eventually be coming but for now, turn your computer’s browsers to: kmalexander.com and thestarswereright.com!


Again, huuuuge thanks to Jon Contino for his work on the cover and for doing such an awesome job with the cover and my name. The man is a miracle worker with letters.


Let me know what you think in the comments!

Brandon Sanderson’s 2012 Lectures on Writing

Write About Dragons

A good friend of mine sent me this link a while back, I might have mentioned it on twitter, but  it was too good not to share here. If you’re not aware, Brandon Sanderson is the successor to Robert Jordan, the author who was selected by Jordan’s widow to finish his epic “Wheel of Time” series (which I haven’t read but I know people love.)


He gave these lectures at BYU and they are chock full of some really good info. I’ll embed the first class below, but do yourself a favor and spend some time watching all of them. If you can’t spare the time to watch the audio has also been made available to download.



The rest after the bump…
