Merry Christmas everyone!
As I've talked about, the last two Starship's Mage Anniversary Edition books will be launching in January and February.

Due to some backend mechanisms, the price initially switched over at $5 per month. I've adjusted it to $3, but when you have a moment, please double check to make sure you're paying the right amount!
Thank you all for your support and I hope you have a fantastic holiday ...

Back in August, we learned about a Patreon update that meant we'd have to move away from our current payment model. Right now, I charge $5 per book when a new book comes out. Because of payment terms between the Patreon and Apple platforms, the current model is being phased out, so I was looking at the possible ways...

Wow, it's been 10 years already!

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the series, I have revised and edited the first five books of the series and will be releasing new ebook, audiobook, and paperback editions:

Hello Patrons,
The following "interview" is actually a conversation over the breakfast table that happened today. Glynn and I were workshopping the topic for a panel that we'd like to get a few authors togethers for, and we thought patrons might be interested in the topic.

Trying this again, as the first post didn't come through well.
I've been fiddling with photoshop as we begin to spool up for The Exodus Gambit's launch and this is what fell out of my brain for the titular House Adamant.
No idea what I'll do with these, but I figured I would share here for your amusement at my mediocre clipart skill XD
