Reflecting on… Colin This post is the result of a Fantasy Indies prompt from a couple weeks ago, where participants were asked to name their favorite book villains. I had a couple people mention Colin, which got me to thinking… What is it about Colin that makes him such a good (and memorable) villain? I […]
The risk I took with Guardian Since Guardian released a little over five weeks ago, I’ve had some great feedback from readers. While the ARC thing didn’t work out as well as I’d hoped this time around (I think timing just made it difficult for a few of the reviewers to get to it before […]
Reflecting on 2023 This year feels like nothing short of a whirlwind—the last half in particular. But let’s start from the beginning. I spent most of January and February editing The Caein Legacy, followed by a first pass of Serpentus. It was a ton of work, but completely worth it (and necessary) before I started […]
Guardian is now available! Guardian is (for some) the highly anticipated sequel to Exile, and it’s now available in all formats on most major retailers! I wanted to thank everyone who has been along for this journey, put up with me while I contemplated publishing this series and how to go about it, and those […]
Guardian and The Next Leg of Andrew’s Journey This week I’m going to discuss a bit of traveling, in terms of The Caein Legacy and how it impacts the story in the series’ second book, Guardian.

Guardian: Things You’ll See and Early Feedback I haven’t done a great job of focusing this month. There was so much going on between the character art I commissioned for Wraith and the Revolution, the cover reveal for Serpentus, and me starting the draft of Wrath of the Dragon-kind, that I kind of forgot Guardian […]

The Cover Art Process: The Caein Legacy I originally shared some of this with my newsletter a few months ago, but I’ve decided to share it here too. I think it’s especially important to share this now, given some of the artwork issues that have been cropping up in the publishing industry. I hired a […]
Some Writing Updates As usual, I have a lot going on with my writing, and it has been a while since I last posted an update. So here we go… Recent Releases & Upcoming Release Schedule: In April, I released an ebook bundle of The Relics of War. It includes all 3 books in the […]
