Firmament: No Man cover reveal!

I have been waiting over a year to share this cover with you! The beautiful artwork was finished by the talented Michael McDevitt in June of last year, but I didn’t put all the text and everything on until I had the book ready to publish. That happened this week, so I put the finishing touches on it. I also…

The Month of August, 2019

I’ve continued to write more than I have in awhile the past month or so — I finished a novella for a project that will be announced soon, I’m working on a short story for a contest, and I’ve submitted several of my best (in my opinion) short stories to magazines. No acceptances so far, but I enjoy submitting, so…

Feelin’ Famous

I’m still not able to login to this website at home, but I’m staying at my parents’ for the week so they can have some grandbaby time, so I’m here for the moment. However, I originally wanted to post this on the Firmament Series website, but apparently the domain is not propagating. If you don’t know what that means, don’t…

“Sometimes you just have to lower your expectations.”

I talked about expectations a few days ago, and just over the weekend I’ve come upon a situation where I got to put my preaching into practice. Let me back up for a second. In case you don’t recognize the quote in this post’s title, it’s from a pretty fantastic movie called Eight Below. In it, a man determined to…

50,000, Here I Come…

I took a year off from NaNoWriMo last year–I was working full time and already stressed, and then later that month I ended up getting engaged, so the timing just wasn’t great. It made me sad, but I knew I needed to prioritize and let some stuff go. This year, however, while I’m still busy, I’m much more flexible. So…

Today’s the Day!

Finally, the release date for Firmament: Reversal Zone! It is now available on Kindle, and I’m making the last few tweaks to the paperback, so it should be up in a few days. In the meantime, head on over to Bookish Orchestrations for the blog tour kickoff, which includes three giveaways–one for each of the three previous books! I think…

Coming Soon…

Just a few days before Firmament: Reversal Zone is available! I’m getting positively giddy at the thought of sharing it with you. I got to thinking, though, what if somebody is interested, but hasn’t read the rest of the series? So to help out with that, I’m making the Firmament: Radialloy ebook a free download for the week! Starting tomorrow…

Sometimes I’m Not Creative

Well, I haven’t posted in almost a month, contrary to my most sincere desires. My schedule these days looks a bit like this: Get up around 6:30 to head to the gym. Work out for about 45 minutes. Get to work by 8:00 and spend the day answering phones, entering things into the computer, and finding little snippets of time…

The Month of August

Yes, I know the month of August is almost over. I meant to do this post earlier in the month, but I’ve been not only working full time and dating and trying to keep up with friends, but I’ve been working on getting the fourth Firmament book published, I’m working on two other writing projects, I have a new audiobook…
