An Infinite Series of Quantum Give-Ups
March 31st, 2022 Okay, this is the post where I get all mushy, and then it’s back on the sarcasm train, full speed ahead. I give up a lot. “But,” you interject, “you’ve made so many things! A person who gives up would not have so much to show for it!” It’s a lot ofContinue reading “An Infinite Series of Quantum Give-Ups”
LAST CALL
March 30th, 2022 This is it! LAST CALL! There are only hours left of my Kickstarter, so if you were wanting one of the exclusive editions of my new books Cold World or Brushfire, now is your final opportunity! Like I’ve said several times (and for the last time!), these Kickstarter exclusives will not beContinue reading “LAST CALL”
Potholes
March 29th, 2022 This fucking pothole. Normally I would ask you to excuse my language, but then again, you don’t know this pothole. You can’t see it? I can still feel it. Week after week, I would fearfully drive past this very spot; here lived the deepest, most gnarly pothole I had ever set myContinue reading “Potholes”
WE DID IT! Fire & Ice = Success!
March 26th, 2022 YAHOOOO!! Hey, kids!! WE DID IT!! Overnight — not by magic, but by your very intentional support — we surpassed our Kickstarter goal of $2,000! That means that I have the funds to publish not one, but two incredibly special books this summer: Cold World, and Brushfire. Thank you. From deep withinContinue reading “WE DID IT! Fire & Ice = Success!”
It’s a Cold, Cold World
March 18th, 2022 I’ve spent a lot of time talking about the world of Brushfire, and haven’t shared too much about Cold World, besides its title, release date and basic premise. That’s intentional, for sure: Brushfire is a story I’ve been working on for a long time, and it’s visually more fun to share. ColdContinue reading “It’s a Cold, Cold World”
STEAL THIS
March 16th, 2022 Some of my wonderful co-publishers have been asking me how they can further get the word out about the books I’m releasing this summer and the campaign I’m running to publish them. “But wait,” you might be thinking. “Co-publishers? Don’t you self-publish your work?” Well, yes. I do self-publish. But I don’tContinue reading “STEAL THIS”
Black Like Gold
March 16th, 2022 I’ve been trying to talk this idea out for a while now, but I should just try to write it down. Because I am an absolute idiot when I talk, and I am slightly less an idiot when I do not. So very slightly. There’s this oft-repeated warning about good people; it’sContinue reading “Black Like Gold”
Look Who I Ran Into!
March 14th, 2022 I just ran into my buddy, Bay, and he says hi! He’s wondering, too, if you have any chips. He also can’t believe we’ve already raised 54% of Fire & Ice — almost $1,100 — to tell his story. He actually got teary-eyed as I told him how excited people are toContinue reading “Look Who I Ran Into!”
Fire & Ice Is a Renewable Resource!
March 9th, 2022 DID YOU KNOW? For less than the price of half a tank of gas, you can support my work and get my upcoming books? PLUS: my books can not only take you to new locations, but they can transport you through time! How’s that for fuel efficient? DID YOU ALSO KNOW? OneContinue reading “Fire & Ice Is a Renewable Resource!”
