There are quite a few readers who wait for the audiobook in order to enjoy my latest releases. I don’t blame them. You can drive, work out, or do whatever AND listen to the latest book (as well as hear all my crazy character voices, something you don’t get from the text). My daughter saves... Continue Reading →
When I approached the completion of the Wrath of Order, I reached out to my friend and fellow designer, Josh Mandel, to help me with a section I couldn't do alone: the foreword. Luckily, he agreed to provide one. When he delivered it, I was stunned. It was an amazing piece that explored how my... Continue Reading →
It’s official! The Wrath of Order will launch on Halloween, October 31, 2025! Maybe it’s a nod to some of the creepier bits in the book? Honestly, the launch just fell on that date because it will hopefully give me time to get my ducks in a row for the event. To make preorders possible,... Continue Reading →
When I add a new book to the series, I love to have the bookmarks I hand out at signings include the new cover art, so with the imminent addition of the Wrath of Order to the Chronicles, it made sense to update the bookmark design. Note that, because of the new title, the size... Continue Reading →
After months of working with the wonderfully talented folk at Miblart, I’m so happy to reveal the final cover for the Wrath of Order, the continuation of the Chronicles of Chaos and the first book in the Order Trilogy. Responses among those that have sneaked a peek at it already have been overwhelmingly positive. Many say... Continue Reading →
If you’ve met me at a signing event, you’ve likely heard this story. When I appeared on the Dusty Wheel WoT podcast, someone was listening to it: the Executive Producer of the Wheel of Time TV show, Rick Selvage. He contacted me and, together, we relaunched the game to coincide with the launch of the... Continue Reading →
On April 4, I attended the Chanticleer Author Conference awards banquet with Sabrina, Emmett, and fellow author Maggie Beeler who was also competing for an award (and was a blast to hang out with). I was a finalist in four different categories: Ozma (fantasy), Dante Rossetti (YA), Short Stories, and Series. In the ceremony, they... Continue Reading →
I woke up today to my phone ringing. My good friend and fellow author Jordan P. Barnes had to get up early to beat me to the punch by alerting me to the fact that the Realm of Gods just won the 2024 Indies Today Best Epic Fantasy award! This was a little shocking, first... Continue Reading →
When I launched this site, I included a number of behind-the-scenes articles about games I'd shipped in my career as a designer. However, quite a few I left blank. I intended one day to return and write them up as well. Unfortunately for fans, writing my fantasy books took priority. That said, I put a... Continue Reading →
Here, deep in the Mysterium, I like to keep track of all of my characters from the Chronicles of Chaos, but in my latest sweep, I discovered a few missing. That’s never a good sign. Usually, the only time I lose some of my characters is because I write a new (sometimes a teensy-bit fatal)... Continue Reading →
