A little Smoke and Stone inspired metal!

I've been tweaking this every now and then as I wrap up the last chapters of the final novel, AN END TO SORROW.

Planned release for the last book is early 2022.

WANNA THROW MONEY AT A WRITER?!!

Everything earned will be spent on increasing the quality of my books. More insane cover art. Print ARCs and special hardcover editions. Interior illustrations. Character art. World maps! More!

I chat with Adam Weller over at FANTASY BOOK REVIEW about magic systems, insanity, and warping reality to fit your needs.

I was lucky enough to get a chance to chat with Lukasz Przywoski over at The Fantasy Book Critic. We talk about traditional versus self-publishing, the politics of Bastion, and sometimes I am, perhaps, a little more honest than is wise.

"The cool thing with writing a book is realizing you don’t matter. The book isn’t about what the writer thinks it’s about, it’s about what the reader gains. And so Smoke and Stone definitely comments on religion and politics, but what I think it says is irrelevant."

I'll have a new book, CITY OF SACRIFICE, out before the end of the year. Dark fantasy influenced heavily by the works of Carlos Castaneda.

The editor is editing.

The artist is arting.

I'm working on book two.

I've been busy for the last couple of years, and it looks like things are all gonna drop pretty fast. At least by my standards. Expect four Fletcher books in the next 18 months.

Details to follow.

So I’ve just finished your novel, Beyond Redemption. I really love the way you write. It is so dark, I’ll be questioning my sanity for eternity now. What inspired you to write something so dark?

I noticed I haven't written anything here in a while and don't really have anything to talk about so here is like one of those general updatey kinda things.

The Mirror’s Truth came out in December and has been receiving rare reviews. Woo!

Ghosts of Tomorrow came out at the beginning of March and has also been receiving rave reviews. Also woo!

I'm half-finished the first draft of a new book. It's a new world and a new magic system and I really like it. Very different from the Manifest Delusions books, but still dark. What can I say? I tried to write Epic Fantasy and it got nasty fast. Once that one is into editing, I'll start working on a sequel to Ghosts of Tomorrow.

Yep.

That's it.

The Mirror’s Truth won a Stabby award for Best Independent/Self-Published Novel in 2016!

Wooooooooo!
