Read MoreUpdates galore!
Read MoreYou look like somebody in need of something to look forward to. A fast-paced thriller about big-brother oppression and the suppression of free will through tampering with the water supply, perhaps? Yeah ... you got that look about you.
That's why YOU should preorder The Lucid today!
Read MoreI hope so, because it won't be long before Sawyer Jackson and the Shadow Strait hits shelves. And I want one of those shelves to be yours!
Read MoreJust wanted to drop a quick note. I know I've slacked off on blog posts this week, but it's all in the name of a worthy cause! Today I am spending the entire day working on Citadel: Children of Light!

Read MoreGuess what book has some progress? If you said "Harry Potter and the Drunken Monkey," you'd be very close. But so very wrong. Close though. Read more to find out!
Read MoreNow that production has started for the audiobook version of "Citadel: First Colony," I thought you'd get a kick out of hearing a sneak preview!

Read More"Citadel: First Colony" is the first book in a series that is driven by character more than setting or circumstance. This series contains a group of characters I have come to love, and I truly believe they could be placed in any setting, from Downton Abbey to Doctor Who to Modern Family, and result in great stories.
And because I think you will love them, too, I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is! Read on to find out how.
Read More"Good news, everyone!"
If you heard that in the voice of Dr. Farnsworth, then you're my kind of people.
But seriously ... good news! I've officially outlined the first three chapters and most of the fourth chapter of "Children of Light." Not as exciting as saying "I've officially WRITTEN the first three chapters," but we take what victories we can. And that's one.
Read MoreProgress on "Children of Light!"
As promised, I am finally getting a start on this book. Also as promised, I'm re-releasing Books 1 & 2 with spiffy new covers, but even more importantly with spiffy new edits! There were goofs and glitches that bugged me about both books, and some pretty heinous ones at that. Some fairly stupid mistakes were made. And now, hopefully, they are all corrected [...]
