2015 Roundup
It feels as though I've been worked pretty much as hard as I ever have last year, which to think back on it felt pretty good until I realised that I all I had to show for it was Gotrek & Felix: Slayer (which i wrote in 2014 anyway), and the short stories Beneath the Black Thumb, Godless, and Plan B in the Mantic anthology, Drainpipes for Strike Posts
Such is the delayed reward of professional writing, so hopefully 2016 will be a bumper year for releases. One speculative short story still sitting with Grimdark Magazine aside, it's all with Black Library so largely under wraps, but, just for a sense of what's coming...
January will see the release of an Age of Sigmar anthology featuring another short story of mine. I've received my author copies on this one and I'm just hovering over the 'share photo' button on my fun.
In June (I think) my entry into the Beasts Arises series, Echoes of the Long War will hit shelves both real and digital. And I can neither confirm nor deny that I am or am not working on another book in the series as we speak (I have two hands, after all)
I've also written four (count them!) Age of Sigmar audio stories, and according to the great Oracle, Amazon, it looks like I have an anthology of Gotrek & Felix stories coming out. News to me, but I'll take it!
Beasts Arises aside, there are some exciting projects lined up for 2016, but my goal for next year is to try and attend more conventions. If I'm not spotted at York Unleashed and EdgeLit Derby at the very least then you all have permission to slap me. And I still live in hope that someone might nominate Gotrek & Felix: Slayer for the Legend Award and I might get a paid trip to Nineworlds. It'd be a step up from the Magician's Circle in 2014 with Headtaker, awesome fun as that was, and I'll be keeping everything crossed from now until nominations close.
Happy New Year everyone, hears to plenty more bolters and warhammers in 2016
