I don’t really have time to look into a blog topic today, so I’ll give another projects update cuz I’m working my tail off over here: Flying Sparks is done-done-done. The pages are currently being formatted for print, I think I’ve finally caught all the typos in it. It’ll be nice to get this going. […]
Worldcon Is Failing While The SJWs Sit And Laugh About It
The SJWs on File 770 gleefully cheered about how the Hugo voting this year was up…. compared to 2013, which is when the award voting was at a drastic low. They’re declaring victory in a year where it’s still fresh in people’s minds exactly what the hugo is, mainly because of the free publicity it […]
Unplugging – At Least To Some Extent
Over the weekend I listened to a nice message at church just about interacting with people, being available, demonstrating love by helping people. The topic came to social media, and it reminds me of what NYT Bestselling Author Ted Dekker said once: “Social media is for 3 things: to attack, to defend, and to promote. […]
Cover Reveal: The Fight For Rislandia
I’ve been working my TAIL off this year producing a lot of books, getting everything going. One of my main goals for 2018 was to be able to see The Adventures Of Baron Von Monocle into a trilogy. It’s been my best seller so far, with For Steam And Country winning an award for CLFA […]
Love Everybody Always
Kanye West earlier this year really changed my life. When he came out with several tweets urging people to say I love you, to make love the new normalized instead of hate, that spoke to me. That is Christ’s message in a nutshell and that is how we’re going to make a long-term impact that […]
Hit By A Hacker Attack
Over the weekend, you may have noticed my site went down. That’s why there was no blog yesterday or the day before. What happened was, someone hacked into my hosting account. They purposefully took down the website and tried to lock me out. I had to go through a number of hoops yesterday to restore […]
Did Zoe Quinn Defraud Kickstarter Backers?
Yesterday the internet started blowing up at Chuck Tingle, the silly erotica author who we all know from his ridiculous book titles. At the beginning of 2017, he partnered with Zoe Quinn to make a video game based on his book series. They did this on Kickstarter and raised about $85,000. All looked okay for […]
The Breitweisers Back Out Of Convention Because Of Unsafe Environment
Conservative creators have had issues at conventions for about a year now. It started with Worldcon 76’s unwillingness to protect me despite the fact that I had credible threats against me, which I sent to them and, instead of taking actions to help authors creators, they banned me because of my outspoken political views. This […]
Will SFWA Act Like A Professional Organization This Time?
Last week saw the end of my Flying Sparks IndieGoGo campaign, which has now made over $28,000. As a single work graphic novel, it by itself makes more money than most members of SFWA have made in writing in their entire lifetimes. Under the rules of the guild, a single qualifying work of $3,000 or […]
The Anti-ComicsGate Industry Surge Is About Harassing And Scaring People
I was shocked yesterday to see the attack on Alterna Comics, a small independent comic creator on the East Coast. They’ve been innovating within the industry by bringing back newsprint — making comic books affordable for everyone. I pick up their entire line and it’s usually between $6-10 a month just because of their titles […]
We’re Getting Too Big – They’re Coming Hard For Us
But we need to hold our ground. Think about this: it’s been four months with more than a dozen wildly successful crowdfunded comics. This does not happen in crowdfunds, comics do not get this kind of publicity on average, the industry is shaken. None of them can believe it. They keep trying to write this […]
This Is It. The Last Hurrah!
For Flying Sparks that is. It’s been a wild ride on this indiegogo campaign. I could have never expected receiving this incredible level of support for my comic, Flying Sparks. It really is a testament to this movement and how we’re changing the industry. Most crowdfunds for first time indie comics creators are barely able […]
