It’s been a crazy week, and all of this stuff below I wanted to get to individually, but given the way I’ve been relentlessly attacked by John Scalzi, and then something I haven’t publicized much in that I’ve been defamed in a writers group called The Codex Writers by some pretty big people in the […]

John Scalzi’s Dragon Awards Act Of Master Persuasion — And Why It’ll Backfire
I never expect to wake up in the morning, head onto the internet, try to make overtures of peace to a crowd and get a passive-aggressive twitter rant directed my way. But by the same token, I’m not going to be unfair to John Scalzi here. I see what went on from his perspective, and […]
In The Wake Of The Dragon Awards, Baycon Doubles Down
Vox Day has been quite vocal about his laws of SJWs, starting with his first book, SJWs Always Lie. We saw this immediately after my being removed as a speaker, when folk who were running the convention took to the hate/smear fake news site, File 770, in order to try to destroy an independent artist […]
First Post-Dragons Interview With Your Favorite Multiple Award Nominated Author!
There’s a few presses that I buy every single book they come out with in order to support them. The first, obviously, is Castalia House. My second in that category is Enclave Publishing. They bring beautiful sci-fi and fantasy to a Christian market, with authors who are good people worth supporting. So I was thrilled when […]
Three Big Breaking Stories That You Won’t See In The Media
In Corporate Discriminitory News: Someone tweeted in support of the president, who then RTd it. Twitter immediately went through and suspended the account. Apparently, from the blue check mark stalkers who were all over this in an attempt to spin this nonsense, the person attempted to sell the account in a tweet (it had a […]
For Steam And Country – Now on Kindle Unlimited
I had a great conversation with my publisher today and with the exciting news about the Dragon Award nomination for Star Realms: Rescue Run, we agreed it’d be a great thing to run a promotion for my other novel, For Steam And Country. If you haven’t checked it out, go do so! It’s extremely well […]
Star Realms: Rescue Run Nominated For Dragon Award!
Last night I found out that my debut novel, Star Realms: Rescue Run was nominated for the most prestigious award in Science Fiction and Fantasy. Not only that, but every novel on my slate of recommendations got nominations as well. I’m super floored by all the support that you, my readers, have given me since […]
X-O Manowar 2012 Run (Vol 1-13) Reflections
Mild spoilers for anyone who’s reading through this. Nothing big though. I caught up on X-O Manowar, which was just relaunched a few months ago, written by Matt Kindt. The current iteration I found so beautiful that I wanted to go back and see the history of the character, which was rebooted with the rest […]
You Judge Books By Their Covers– And So Does Everyone Else!
I’ve noticed a trend at conventions just based on how people pick up or don’t pick up my books when they walk by: For Steam And Country requires double the amount of books as Star Realms: Rescue Run. Now both of these covers are absolutely beautiful, not complaining about the Star Realms cover in the […]
Retro Review: The High Crusade by Poul Anderson
The High Crusade is the fast paced adventure story that melds both high fantasy and science fiction into an incredible epic adventure. The concept is an alien ship lands on Earth, an advance scout for an invasion force that preys upon undeveloped worlds, subjugating and taking their resources as a galactic empire expands. They land […]
The Last Crusade: Who Is Your Father?
There’s so much to share about the weekend at the Realm Makers writer’s conference, but the most important, brothers and sisters, may be a moment of clarity and revelation that was given early on in the conference to me, and one that the Lord compels me to pass along to you this morning. A lot […]
Realm Makers Conference
Meant to have a blog up for a review of Poul Anderson’s The High Crusade today, but I’m a bit busy at the Realm Makers conference in Reno, NV. It’s a conference dedicated to Christian speculative fiction writers and is really cool, worth looking at and attending in the future for writers. Ted Dekker gave […]
