Since I’ve finished up my retrospective on my older novels, I find myself looking for a new theme for this blog. Thinking up the next big series of things to talk about sounds kind of hard, though, so I believe I’ll just offer a few quick updates on what I’m doing these days, then move …
17 Novels: Prince of Ravens
Good news: Today the UPS guy dropped off my very own copy of Restless Lightning! The book’s official release is October 23, but this is the first time I’ve been able to hold it in my hands and flip through the pages. I’ve been writing for a long time now, but I don’t mind admitting …
17 Novels: Avenger
Good news! It’s October of 2018, which means the next installment of my Sikander North stories is heading for a bookstore near you. Look for Restless Lightning in your favorite local spot sometime around October 23rd. Four years have passed since Valiant Dust, and Sikander finds himself assigned to a squadron stationed in a distant …
17 Novels: Corsair
Strangely enough, in the two weeks or so since my last post, autumn arrived in the Pacific Northwest with the stealth and subtlety of a runaway train. It always amazes me how fast summer ends around here. Growing up on the East Coast, I think of September as a month where you still get to …
17 Novels: Swordmage
I see that I’ve now interrupted my series of retrospectives looking back on my novels for a good five months, so it’s high time that I returned to the topic. Before I do, let me share a couple of personal updates: First, I’m now working on the rewrite for Scornful Stars, which will be Book …
Gen Con Wrap-Up
I seem to begin a lot of posts with some variation of the expression “I’m back,” but today that’s actually on the mark: after 6 days in Indianapolis for Gen Con, I returned home on Monday of this week and I’ve been resting up (and catching up) for the last couple of days. I wore …
Gen Con and Project Updates
Hey, I’m back! I apologize for disappearing over the last three months, but I found myself super-busy on a couple of different projects and I just felt like I had to zero in on the writing for a bit. I intend to return to more regular posting soon (and maybe finish up my retrospective on …
Great Navy Movies
I decided to change things up a little bit this week—it seems a bit self-centered to spend all of my time talking about books I wrote. So today, I’m going to take a look at my ten favorite Navy movies. If you haven’t seen all of these, maybe my recommendation might steer you toward something …
17 Novels: Final Gate
Busy week for me! I’m hard at work on the first draft of Book 3 of the Sikander North series. I just saw the cover for Restless Lightning (Book 2 of the same). And I’m tinkering with an idea for a very different book, as well as plinking away at a big Sasquatch Game Studio …
17 Novels: Farthest Reach
Boy, lots of good movies coming up in the next couple of months. I’m all in on Pacific Rim Uprising; I know smart people who say that the first Pacific Rim was not a good movie, and I literally don’t understand the words that are coming out of their mouths. Giant robots and giant monsters? …
