More Portraits

Hey, guys! Still plugging along on TDS 2, but while you wait, I cooked up a few new decent portraits.

Here's a Sariss one! As I said on Discord, looks a bit smug like she just got branded and is proud of it. 

#2 is Sabari the Siren, who will make a return in Book 2!

Quick Update

Hey, guys! Thanks to everyone who voted in the poll. Looks like the Ash cover is the safe bet for book 4, maybe I can have some work done on the Miranda one for book 5. We already have the movie poster for the anthology so at least that is set!

In other news, the Dragon Sov #2 sample is out for editing (about a quarter of the book) so you'll have that to chew on in a little bit while I fi...

TLF 4 Cover Poll

Hey guys!

So we were chatting a bit about covers on Discord today and I figured I'd drop a poll to see what folks though!

So which cover do you personally like better for the next Lost Fleet book?

Hey, guys!

Couple quick updates for you. I just got the DS paperbacks in, so I'll start signing and shipping those out shortly. They look good!


Other housekeeping:

March Update

Hey, guys!

So not a ton of news here, I have unfortunately been ill from the moment the book launched up until about now, which has been frustrating. But work is commencing on Dragon #2, and I'll have a better idea on previews in a few weeks. 

I will probably end up revising the '23 roadmap soon based on narrator availability. Actors are set up for TDS (Ben Hart and Ellory Lane...

Quick Update

Hey, guys!

Just letting you know I'm working on editing this month's sample now, so you should have it within the week. Should be about 30k words, a third of the book!

Other notes:

  • I mailed out some paperbacks last week and I'll be sending the rest this week. 
  • Invasion audiobook should be up for pre-order in early Feb and release later in the month...

Invasion paperbacks

Hey guys!

Well after the holiday shipping delay and weirdly getting all of these books delivered in four packages instead of one (???), I can finally mail these out this week!

2023 Roadmap

Hey, guys!

I figured I'd toss out a loose (and very tentative) roadmap for 2023. As some of you know, my goal this year is to increase productivity at least 25% to keep up with an every-other-month release schedule while still writing longer books.

So obviously none of this is set in stone, and it's pretty contingent on my new schedule working out. But if things work out, it will...

Happy New Year!

Hey, guys! I'll be traveling back home at the end of the year here before getting back into writing, but here is the anthology "movie poster" cover Ullr did for me!

I'll probably use this for the 1-3 audio anthology whenever it is ready.

Thank you to everyone for the amazing year!

Holiday Update

Hey, guys!

I hope everyone has had time to read and enjoy Invasion! If you are able to leave a rating on Amazon, even better!

Just letting folks know that the paperbacks have been ordered, but I won't get them until the 2nd week of Jan (holiday blockage?)

I will also be traveling for the ho...

End of Nov update

Hey, guys!

So I was going to throw up a slightly longer Invasion preview, but since I'm putting the finishing touches on the end now, you should have your hands on it in 7-10 days. with that in mind, I'm just going to hold off and deliver the whole book at once!

Stay Tuned! (And keep in mind, high rollers should be able to get audio codes for insurrection when it releases on the 1...

A time for thanks!

Hey, guys! Well, it's that time of year again, and I have a lot to be thankful for! As most of you know, sales have really taken off these past few months, and the possibility of getting audio books going forward is pretty exciting!

But none of this would have been possible without the support of my awesome loyal patrons over the years. Some of you have been with me for a long time now, a...

Tony Tz Art + NSFW

Hey, guys!

So as I continue building an art portfolio for the Avetharri era stuff, here's a new piece from Tony (has been a while!).

This is kind of an Elf Slave Redux - an inspiration piece I could take in a lot of different ways. Maybe a highborn elf born without magic pleading to the old gods to become a priestess? Or maybe a potential dragon wife proving her submission to her...

Art!

Hey, guys! Here are a couple of new Wyrm Lord art pieces as I look to build up for the next saga. I hope to eventually expand the website over the holidays kind of like I did with sci-fi. These are potential concepts for a dragon MCs harem members.

Oct Update

Hey, guys! Just some basic housekeeping here. 

-About 80% of you at the 20+ tier should have received your Insurrection paperback by now. The rest were delayed from a shipping error, but I'll send them out tomorrow.

Dragonrider and Oct Roadmap

Hey, guys!

So if you aren't active on Discord, I asked Ullr to do a banner for me as a setup for my 2023 plans to finally delve into "Reign of the Wyrm Lords," the old world Avetharri books I've been talking about for years at this point (and was going to start this year, but then The Lost Fleet took off!!)

Anyway, current plan is to finish TLF #3 by Dec, then pause that to shift ...

Incursion Audio

Hey, guys! So Incursion is out on audio today and has already broke into the top 50 space opera!

The publisher has blessed me with a few free codes which I'm going to hand out as a reward to super patrons!

If any of them end up unclaimed, I will go down the line for patrons who've been with me the longest in the next tier until they are used up!

Quick Sept Update

Hey guys! Just a quick update on the book: I expect to have the draft finished within a week, with a patreon release a few days after that to get some eyeballs on it before the Amazon release. It currently has triple the pre-orders of Incursion, which had double my previous book before that. :O

it's going to be long - probably 110k words, 30% longer than Union or Kingdom of Stars...

August Plans

Hey, guys. Just a quick note that I have discussed on my Goodreads blog here, but Insurrection is going to end up longer than expected (like 20-30%) and therefore needs a bit more time in the oven. I think (hope) the interlude flashbacks will be good at building out the hist...
