Huge News: You can now buy direct from me! I think the headline says it all, but I now have a shop on my website! You can buy paperbacks, hardcovers, or ebooks direct from me. No more going to a retailer (unless you really want to.) You can browse the new shop here! This has […]
2025 in Review I think 2025 has been a strange year all around. It has definitely been weird for me, and even after a few months to process some of the specific weirdness, that’s still the only word that seems adequate to describe it. 2025 has been weird. But there has been a lot of […]
Thank you! 2025 has been a roller coaster year. There have been ups and downs, corkscrew turns I couldn’t have anticipated, and some wild twists. But overall, it has been a pretty damned good year for me, despite the current workplace situation. Since many of you subscribing to my blog are based in the US, […]
The State of My Writing (an Update) It’s been a while since I made my last writing update post. I don’t actually know when the last one was, but I’m pretty sure it was before Wraith and the Revolution was published in June. Which means I’m probably overdue. By a lot. *Does a quick scroll […]
The Worldbuilder Diaries: Research This may come as a surprise to some people, but some research is required when writing fantasy novels. While you can make a lot of things work by saying, “Magic!” there are still other elements that should be based in real world fact. I do quite a bit of research while […]

Influences and Inspiration from Media In the past couple of months, I’ve been asked multiple times about the media that influences or inspires my writing. Most questions were directed at Wraith and the Revolution (since that’s what I’ve been promoting the most), but Wraith has been with me for so long that I have a […]
Am I Branching Out? Not Really. Since the release of Wraith and the Revolution, I’ve been asked several times about the “shift” from fantasy to science-fiction in my writing, and each time, that question has caught me completely by surprise. The fact is, I haven’t “shifted” or “branched out” from fantasy at all. Sci-fi has […]
The Worldbuilder Diaries: Cultures and Society Every character has a distinct culture and/or societal influence that influences their beliefs, actions, and thought processes. While some of my characters come from a background similar to my own, others showcase very different worldviews—and I find those are the most fun to write about. I’ll showcase a few […]
Wraith and the Revolution is officially available! Wraith and the Revolution officially published on Tuesday! As I’ve mentioned previously, it was a book more than 30 years in the making, and I’m so excited to share this story with the world. I hope readers enjoy it as much as I loved writing it. About Wraith […]
