so… I’ve been wondering what to do with the “what happened to Mahault after the events of The Vineart War” realization I had…. Should it be a new Kickstarter bonus for “From Whence You Came”? Should it be saved for some future time? And then I thought – nah. So. If we make it to, […]

Official Publication Month Confirmed: August 2012 for DRAGON JUSTICE (PSI #4) This is the fourth (and for now, last) of the PSI novels. I had a lot of fun – and a few tears – while writing it. What happens? Well, without spilling too much…hrm. No, can’t mention that. Or that. or…. no. not

Last night, we crossed the point to 75% funded on “From Whence You Came,” which was the point

Today is BookDay for TRICKS OF THE TRADE. I am so proud and happy of this book, I wish I could spend all day kvelling over it, sharing reviews and stories. But something happened this morning that has taken my attention and energy away. Early in the morning, the NYPD raided and cleared Liberty
