My daughter FINISHED 100 episodes of her webcomic "Verabella." I'm so incredibly proud of her for expressing herself, her work, + her life this way. It's the climax of this arc, + Verabella, the seemingly-evil queen, and her girlfriend make a HUGE decision. Check it out, give it a like, give it a subscribe, and let her know how awesome she is.

I donated a writing/detective work consultation via @KensingtonBooks for an online auction where all proceeds are benefiting relief efforts in Ukraine! Favorite it for alerts on bidding when the auction kicks off:

Raiders of the Lost Ark meets Evil Dead!
Read "God Worm of the Cavern Deep" on the Why Vandalism? Arts and Literary Journal NOW.
I've been working on leveling up my short-story game this year. It's the one area that I've always worked to crack, but never have. It's a completely different animal than novels, and in many ways, I find it much more difficult.
Hopefully, this is the start of bigger things to come. Enjoy!

THE THIEF OF ALL LIGHT is now available in paperback, and what a gorgeous looking book it is. I love the way the cover glistens in the light. Hopefully it will be in supermarkets, Walmarts, airports, and everywhere else people still buy paperbacks.
Growing up, hardback books were a rare thing to come by. I'll always have a fond place in my heart for paperbacks. It's a true pleasure and honor to see my work make it to this format.

Google Spring Deal: THE THIEF OF ALL LIGHT just $2.99, courtesy of Kensington Publishing Corp.
Deal ends 4/25 so don't sleep.
