Well, an update on Part Two of To Hunt a God is long overdue. Upon release six months ago, I hoped to have it out early in the second quarter of 2022, or at worst, by now! The simple version is that stress in my non-writing life has made writing grow difficult, and it took … Continue reading To Hunt a Manuscript

REVIEW: The Spiral
Disclaimer: The author of this work, Nikki DeKeuster, is one of my colleagues and friends. I was a beta reader for her connected novelette Red String. I was not solicited to review her debut novel. The finest compliment I can give to a work of fiction is my time. I bull-rushed through the back half … Continue reading REVIEW: The Spiral
2021 Year in Review

To Hunt a God—Quick Update I'm delighted to share that To Hunt a God has earned its first Bestseller medal on DriveThruRPG! Cover by … Continue reading 2021 Year in Review
REVIEW: The Armies & Enemies of Dragon Pass
I originally posted this review over on my Facebook page, but decided to repost it on the blog as well upon a friend's suggestion—easier for posterity to find than through FB. If you think A&E sounds interesting, it's available over on the Jonstown Compendium. (Oh, and I am still working on that yearly round-up. Hopefully … Continue reading REVIEW: The Armies & Enemies of Dragon Pass
Reading List 2021

This post meanders through what I read last year, and explores how it impacted my writing. I enjoy looking back at the start of each year as a way for me to … Continue reading Reading List 2021

2020 Reading List
During the 2019 holidays, I had a conversation with my sister about our reading habits. At this time I didn't feel like I read all that much. More than the average American, surely, but probably right around the "one book per month" goal she was considering. Consequently, I decided to spend time this year (2020) … Continue reading 2020 Reading List
The Story So Far…
Well, it's been a while, hasn't it? Six months, give or take, since the last post I wrote. A lot's happened since then. Bought a house and moved. Read a few books. Wrote some stuff. Took a few classes. Looking back, it's hard to quantify and elaborate upon lived experience. Today, I'm gonna ramble about … Continue reading The Story So Far…
End of August Update
(Yes, I know it's September now. Shush.) The last month's been interesting. My gut reaction is to say "No, it hasn't been fruitful" but I don't think that's entirely accurate. Jiharel sat on the backburner through August, although it's still bouncing around in my mind, with a lot of the same challenges and wonderings as I … Continue reading End of August Update
End of July Update
Hello, Internet! Haven't written anything on here for a few weeks. Largely, I haven't felt like I have something interesting to say. I'm still in that state to some degree. But, it's been a while so I figured I ought to at least pop on and talk a little bit on what I've been up to. … Continue reading End of July Update
