I'm hoping to produce another award-winner (Someday the Stars won the 2014 Darrell Award for Best SF Novel by a Mid-South Author, and Valkyrie's Daughter is in the running for the 2015 award) Mostly I write what I think my readers want to see, and the series has gotten some good reviews so far.(less)

I have no contact with the translators, and of course I do not speak French myself. I will refer this to the people at CKP International (my publisher for the French and German editions). I am concerned about it because my books have done so well in France. Translation issues aside, I hope you will continue to read and enjoy them.(less)

The next book is OUT...

Wow! Just realized how long its been since I had a chance to post here. Long enough, in fact for the third book in the Lunar Free State series, Valkyrie's Daughter to make its way through the publishing process and out to the booksellers. It's available in hardcover, softcover, and the major e-book formats at all of the usual outlets (Amazon, B&N, iBookStore, etc.)

Anyway, look for it at your favor Read more of this blog post »
