A while ago, I wrote a story taking place 800 years before Shoreseeker called Voices of Wind and Stone. It won an award from the Writers of the Future contest, and Ive been wanting to put it out, but first I wanted to put an extra coat of polish on it and figure out the best way to get it into your hands.

I decided the best way was to make it available for free for subscribers to my new newsletter. Stylistically, its a bit different from Shoreseeker in that its...

Its going very well! In fact, Ive seen a remarkable response from the UK, where its #3 in two categories, Dark Fantasy and Low Fantasy, as well as # 17 in Epic Fantasy:

It seems to be picking up steam on the US Kindle store, as well, cracking the top 100 in a couple categories. Its still free for a couple more days, so if you havent picked up your copy, you can here. And as always, share this link with your friends so they can get one, too!

For the first and possibly last time ever, I’m making the Kindle version of Shoreseeker completely free worldwide. The free promotion runs for five days, from December 25th to December 29th.

Many of you reading this have already purchased Shoreseeker in some form. If you didn’t get the Kindle version before, now you can at absolutely no cost to you. Even if you don’t normally read Kindle books, downloading Shoreseeker will give it a much-appreciated boost, and you will always have it from...

The launch of Shoreseeker one month ago was, by my humble standards, a success. A lot of people showed their support, and even people whom I haven’t seen in years surprised me with pictures of them holding their freshly-printed paperback copies of the book. I was floored–and honored–by the number of people eager to get their hands on my debut novel. So, first of all, I’d like to thank everyone who helped out with the launch, from those who bought a copy, to those who reviewed it, to those who...

Great news! We have Shoreseeker paperbacks over at Amazon! Here’s a peak at the proof copy I received to give you an idea what to expect:

When I published my first stories back in 2012, a lot of people wanted to be able to read a physical copy. Ebooks were still fairly new at the time and didn’t have the popularity they do now. At the time, I was still new to publishing and had only published a handful of short stories and novellas, and by the time I had enough for a collection, I decided to...

My debut novel Shoreseeker drops tomorrow, and I’m feeling very confident about it. To show you why, let me share with you some of the feedback I’ve gotten from people who have read early and current versions of it.

The first time I showed chapters of Shoreseeker to my writing group, the Tokyo Writers Workshop, the chapters featured a side character named Penellia, a middle-aged scholar and magic user traveling through the woods with her less-than-sensible assistant, Stem. The two of them di...

With the release of The Birth of Maelstrom: Ghosthand‘s demo just around the corner, I have decided that the best way to get the game into people’s hands is with a Kickstarter campaign.

For those of you just hearing about it, Ghosthand is a JRPG-style indie game that I have been developing for some time now. Completion always seemed like a far way off, but now that I have a working demo that gives players a good idea...

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, but I wanted to let you know that I have been busy. Shoreseeker, the first book of the Farshores Saga, is looking for a home right now, and while I’ve been searching for an agent, I’ve also been hard at work on Shoreseeker’s younger sibling Drawingpath.

Feedback from my writing groups on the new book has been very promising (and helpful). One of the group’s veterans even told me that it includes the best writing of mine she’s seen yet.

That’s what...
